Day 277 ~ Really Big Beach Ball....

It was awesome for more reasons than this picture, but this was the funniest reason it was awesome!  I caught Paul in action as he went flying over it... he thought it was hilarious that I got it on the camera!  We have some good laughs, me and Paul!

Cinnamon getting her beauty sleep!

Day 276 ~ Thank goodness for Stargate Reruns!

I was watching Stargate SG-1 today and if I hadn't been, I would have completely missed the fact that one of my favorite shows, In Plain Sight, came back after a years break with no talk of cancellation yet no promise of return.  They do a re run of it on Fridays so I plan to watch it then since we don't have the channel it comes on at its air date :)

Day 275 ~ Kateri's Bubbles

We went outside today to blow some bubbles since Kateri loves them... I was just watching her thinking how grown up she's gotten.  I took very similar pictures of her on her first birthday and today reminded me of that.  As soon as I can get it off my phone I will post one of them, but these are the pictures from today.

Miss long legs wanted to show me her chair!

Day 274 ~ Paul's awesome flip flops!

Sponge Bob.... enough said :)

Day 273 ~ Sunday again....

We played handbells at church for the third Sunday in a row... The Hickersons treated me and Anna to breakfast out before the service.

She made this out of her wrapper while waiting for the rest of us to finish our food!  Thought it was worth documenting.

Tonight Nate and I promised the hermit crabs we would get new sand for their cage and let them out to play.  We put the Taj Mahal to use to let them crawl around in it and they loved it!

Nate also rearranged the chords under the computer desk to prevent the cats from chewing the wires... I'm so proud of the outcome :) He twist tied the power strip up to the back board of the desk, so much more convenient!

Day 272 ~ New Apartment Picnic...

I love helping friends on moving day... its like being part of moving from one chapter of a life to another.  So I offered to help Erin and Justin move today.  They used to live in an apartment over the garage of the house next door to my inlaws.  I've been friends with Erin since we worked at Food Lion together.  When we were done for the day, we had a picnic in the new, yet to be unpacked and arranged, living room for dinner :) Tiring day after the events of the day before, but very fun!

Day 271 (Friday April, 29th) ~ Royally Friday

I rolled in the start of the weekend, yes I start my weekends on Fridays because the second Veronica pulls in the driveway all I can see is sleeping in in the morning and it feels awesome, by sleeping on the couch and getting up at...

That's right, 4:00 A.M. to watch....

The Royal Wedding.... At first I definitely wasn't going to.  And then yesterday I remembered how much I am thrilled by British history and knew I would regret it if I didn't get up and watch it live.  So I did, and it was entirely worth it!  I also figured that I slept in the chair at my parents dozing in and out of Princess Diana's funeral and Mother Theresa's funer and several other European events before the sun comes up here, so why not this?  This is my generations history and I'm so glad I didn't miss it.  And yes I took pictures off the screen as if I was there!

The first public kiss on the balcony of the palace as a married couple.

The whole family.... The queen wore yellow, if it's possible to be excited that early in the morning, I was!

Then in the evening, I was rather exhausted by this point but still going strong, Suzanne and I got all dressed up to go to her St. Peter the Rock school spring formal! 

This picture is special to me because present are two dresses that have graced formals before this.  Suzanne is wearing a dress I wore to a Cornerstone prom in 2005 I think... and her friend Mary to her left is wearing my very first prom dress that I wore in 2004 the year I graduated high school!

Patricia Basil, Anne Basil, Theresa Lademan, and me

The four of us are St. Peter Alumni :)  It's hard to believe it was almost ten years ago that I was a student there! It literally only seems like yesterday!
