Things To Love~

this very minute…

002

Singing “Happy Birthday” to my Bald Kid and having him actually here to blow out the candles. :}

006

Daughters planning a family vacation far away. I can hardly wait!

019

The first preseason football game of the year. Hey, to me, football is football and I’ll watch it whenever it comes on. It makes me so darn happy.

930

The Littles who are turning out to be such good friends, even when they are playing with…snails. Gak.

1143

Seeing this cute van at a truck stop. Best wishes whoever you are!

008

Having a shameful, 7 episode Burn Notice marathon with the Bald Kid on one weekend. Just trying to get him caught up. We LOVE Michael Weston…the burned spy. :]

What about you? What do you love today?

The 24th of July

24th of July neighbor

Our neighborhood puts on quite a show for Pioneer Day. They call it “Cul de sac of Fire” even. It’s a big, huge deal and my big huge confession is…

24th of July 2013

that I missed it altogether. April, Jacob, Lily, Beckham, Jillian, the Bald kid and I were up in the hills at a huge pioneer celebration–more on that later. But it’s nice to know that the show always goes on back home…no matter what. Food, fireworks, games, and sparklers. Pretty darn hard to beat…

keni 24th of July

even if Miss Chompy isn’t a fan.

Heh, heh, heh.

Lighting The World

009

My Daney-boy and his sweetheart Kortney came all the way from Idaho to man a booth at Summerfest.

019

The company he works for is called Niki-Nu Lites.

016

Perhaps you’ve heard me brag talk about them before.

015

See they make these beautiful, incredible lights, in all kinds of colors…

020

and all kinds of shapes.

014

Some even have logos…

011

very IMPORTANT logos.

013

These lights are so much fun to put together–easier than I thought too.

012

Of course, people can also buy them already put together…either way.

045

The booth attracts a lot of attention during the day, because the lights are so unique.

018

But the minute the sun starts to dip in the west…

017

these lights simply glow.

022

People actually gather around just to stare at them and try to figure out what they’re made of…

023

and how they’re put together.

040

And of course, my cute boy is right there to show them. Looks like he’s a little light-headed at the moment. HAaahaha.

I crack myself up!

017

If you happen to be in Provo this week for the 4th of July–please come visit my boy in his Niki-Nu Lites booth at the Freedom Festival.

 010

We’ll all be there to help and cheer and clap…and stare.

008

Hope to see you there!

Things I Love~

right this minute.

004

This girl and that guy who came to visit us this week…

yeah, they’re nuts–but they’re just so dang cute.

003

Hanging quotes up all over the house, sometimes to make a point, and sometimes to remind myself to focus a bit. Works wonders.

007

A silly kitty that insists on sleeping on my feet every night. Makes me a bit claustrophobic…but it feels nice to have her want to be there too.

010

A bald guy who still doesn’t want me to take his picture very often…so mostly…I don’t…mostly.

005

The perfect shade of pink right outside the front door…where it should be so that I can see it first thing.

001

Breakfast that looks like a TV commercial and tastes even better.

005

A wrestling match that’s been waiting for years to happen.

001

Brave little Bishop’s weed under the front window. It grows and grows and pretends that I don’t neglect it at all. Poor thing. 009

My favorite TV show in the whole…wide…world…on it’s last season. *sniff-shiff*

012

The old dude who’s still plugging along. We should probably call him Hopalong Beany.

013

Speaking the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

What are you loving right this minute?
