HNT??????

DRAT!

I seem to have lost my camera.

ERRRR, CORRECTION, my youngest child seems to have lost my camera. She takes it to her friends house to take a million pics for their Myspace and I haven't seen it in a while.

I'll be searching everywhere tonight! (After I get done surfing my fave blogs and getting caught up on everyone!)

All that matters to 16 year old boys on the hottest day of the year!

Overheard while driving D and his buddy to the river.

As we cross the bridge and can see down to the "park" area of the river.....

Buddy: "Wow, there are a lot of people there."
D: "Cool, that means there will be chicks there."
Buddy: "D, you took the words right out of my mouth."

Me: "snort" (as I try to contain my giggle)

HNT: Vacation Time

Me, enjoying the fabulous sun:



Me and my sunburned lips from enjoying too much sun and no lip sunblock:

Back to Reality...once more

UGH, I so hate coming home from vacations.

This last one was EXTRA great. Sunshine the entire week yet not too hot to enjoy it. Of course that could be because of the unlimited exposure to the pool and the lake. :-)

Was so relaxing. Spent lots of time on the boat, zipping around; also lots of time in the pool, just relaxing. We had good food, drinks and conversation. Even had a few nights out to the local bar for some more drinks and hilarious karoake!!!

As usual, I didn't want to leave. Now I am doing some serious daydreaming of owning a vacation house there. Daydreaming being the key word here!!! LOL

So back to my boring life. LOL.....

Pool, deckchair and lake....HERE I COME!

So, leaving for vacation on Sunday. A weeks worth of SUN, boating, swimming in the pool, drinks and just relaxing. I can't wait. My entire family is going (my family, my brother and his family, my mom and my grampa) plus a few extra's.

Nothing like a good Summer song to get me motivated to pack:-)

Whats your favorite Summer song????

Drifting back to reality

So I obviously made it back from Memorial Day at the cabin. I had a super time!!! Just what I needed. And extra special was my oldest daughter (19) came with us (the younger two were off with friends). It was really fun hanging with her for the weekend. Her dad and my brother spent the weekend trying to get her drunk. She had a few drinks but unlike the rest of her family; drinking isnt' her style.....yet. LOL

Meanwhile, ME? I spent Sunday night vomitting in a wheelbarrow. I'll spare you the details but that was the only icky part of my weekend. Those 'Hop, Skip and Go Naked's' sure sneak up on you!

For the most part the weather was awesome. On Monday, the entire family took a hike to a place called Sauk Falls. It was BEAUTIFUL.

Since I have been back, I've been CRAZY busy with work, family and mundane stuff. Why does that always happen after a mini vacation????
