07-29 Breakin' The Rules

There is a first time for everything I guess.  I forgot to pick up my drivers license on my way out the door to the prison.  Thought I had a brilliant idea to bring in my debit card since it is a photo I.D. Not a brilliant idea. I got a talking to by a lieutenant and had to drive the 45 miles back home without teaching any prisoners. So, note to self. NEVER bring a credit or debit card  into the prison.

07-24 Food Pantry

We helped out with the food pantry set up again.  Got Mic to come along this time. Realized that Gabe and I don't really work well together.

07-23 Vote!

We took advantage of early voting.

07-18 Tomato Fail

Last Summer I tried a tomato plant in a pot and it didn't work so this Summer I tried 3 a pot. One plant at least started one tomato but it took forever to turn orange.  Doesn't look good.  I tried. Not sure if I'll bother again next year.  No green thumb.  It was probably just too hot.

07-17 Food Pantry

Gabe and I went over to Leander Church of Christ today to help unload the truck and set up all the food for their food pantry today.  It was fun to help out.  Mic had a "headache" so she didn't join us.

07-15 Bible Study

I sat outside and read over a lesson that I had to teach at the prison tonight. I intended to read some of the fun science fiction book I have been reading but didn't have time.

07-11 Slowing Down

No picture for today.  I'm slacking off on the picture taking. Life if taking a toll and I can't find happy things to take photos of everyday.

07-08 Rain!

Clouds that gave us hope for rain. We did get a little.=)

07-07 My Friend

This is my little friend the hummingbird.  He likes to chase his friend away from the feeder often.  Today he was basking in the falling rain.  It was fun to watch him with his face to the sky while he bathed. Too cute. Just wish I had had a camera instead of my phone.

07-02 Olden Days

A couple of photos from 18 years ago when Brian and first started dating.

07-01 Just a Funny

This is pinned next to our phone. ;-)

06-30 Clouds

Just some clouds that kept the temps under 100 this day. No rain.

06-29 Hummingbird

This little guy comes by to say hi and have a drink quite often.

06-27 Swimming

Took Gabe, Mic, and friends to the pool.  I think it got to 108 this day.

06-26 Sleepover

Mic had 3 friends sleep over.  They were up past 3 am.  

There are 3 girls on that bed.  Really.

06-25 Car Repair

Gabe is out helping Dad do a repair on the car.  Last night when I went to pick up the kids smoke was coming from the engine when I got into the church parking lot.  Thankfully several men were there to help me out.  They put the hose back on the radiator and then filled it with water.  We just got a new radiator a year ago.  Currently Brian and Gabe are out checking things out.  Looking for a leak and checking the hose.  Poor old car.  Really need it to last longer.

Also they are out during the hottest time of day.  Had to get it done though.

06-24 Dropping Off

Dropped both kids off for a youth devo at church.  Michaela's first teen activity. 

 Mic thought me weird to be taking a photo and Gabe doesn't like to face the sun. 

06-21 Repair

A little repair on Walter the farting dog.  He's from a book people.  Walter the Farting Dog.  There are several books about him out there.  Our little Walter quit making noise.  Brian repaired the poor thing.

06-19 Racoon

This little guy has been showing up around the house a lot lately. Usually he pops up when least expected and stares at you.  Here he is being our new squirrel hunter.

06-18 Stick Bug

Brian brought this back from his bike ride for Michaela.  No one wanted to play with it.  Didn't know stick bugs had a pincher in the back like a scorpion.  In the second photo he even curled it up like a scorpion would.  Too bad he walked to the back of the real stick when I took the photo.
