Picture This...Day 216

I was going through my photos & found this one that I took 20 years ago.  We'd just gotten a Canon.  This was the 'old fashioned' way - no digital then, so I had to scan this in to share it.

Picture This...Day 214

Yippee!  Rain in Las Vegas, as we drove down our street.  Only lasted for about 30 minutes, but we enjoyed every moment!

This guy stands in our kitchen holding a chalkboard so that you can post a menu.  Last fall I started having  him hold our family rules, & I love it.

The mailman brought a special surprise to me today from a treasured & sweet friend.  It made my day!  There were special cards in the box, & a gift each, for Elliot & Emily from some little friends too - so sweet & thoughtful!

One of our favorite spots in our home - our coffee corner. Professional machine, grinder, coffee canisters -  my word art. Best coffee in Las Vegas!

Picture This...Day 208

The last time Avery was over, Emily was trying to teach her things out of the dictionary, & she wasn't having any of it.  She told Emily that the dictionary was pretend & not a real book if it said the things that Emily was reading to her.  She then drew this on our chalkboard to prove her dislike for it. I wasn't sure what she had meant by her 'word' that she wrote.  You know the sound you make when you stick out your tongue at someone & make the 'flubbering' noise to the recipient of your 'good' manners? :)  Well, however you'd spell that sound, that's what she said it said. :)

Picture This...Day 207

Today was a special day for Emily  She's been wanting to wear one of my Mom's necklaces (her Granny) for so long.  Today was the big day - her first time.  She couldn't stop looking at it.  Mom would be so proud to see her wearing it!

Picture This...Day 206

I was going through my older photos today & wanted to share this one from Dec. 2010.  I have so many of Emily & her Lilly from behind, & I love it!  She was riding in front of us on the Alice in Wonderland ride at Disneyland.

Saw this bird (crow??) in a palm tree as we came out of a store.  Emily was 'terrified' he was going to swoop down & peck us. :)
