Art Prize 9

A little Art Prize 9 with my book club girls today - I loved being able to do this today - such fun to spend time with friends and get out and enjoy some great art around GR.

I

Book Club

Wine Night...and reading 800 Grapes - so of course we had to sample and share and discuss. I love this group!

Man of Mine

This sweet man of mine toils away on a honey do project when we've hit record highs for September (92*) and they are cancelling school for many districts (or half days).

And he's still in the garage working on my mirror project. 

Love him.

Paella Night

If you're going to travel to Barcelona with friends...you make Paella when you come back....and oh man oh my....this is one night I did not stick to a low carb diet.

It was fantastic!!

My Nephew

My handsome, funny, special-part-of-me nephew and his senior pictures. Where's the five year old that met me all those years ago....time blinks by.

Sassafrass

Sassy kids and their Cougar Cool sunglasses courtesy of their former school and principal. Because to him, they will always be Cougar Cool...and to me, he'll always be so very special for having made that building what it was to us.

Joy Under Pressure

The Joy Under Pressure series is under way at church. Up this past weekend, a discussion on the first chapter of Phillipians. And a request to think about Smart Love - how can you love in a smarter way that affects the person in the best way?

That...and my Southern Living...it's going to be a deep thinking kind of day.

After I re-tag 300 tags..run to a GRPS elementary school to drop of JBF donations, produce a JBF video, cook at Greek to Go, go to Aldi, the bank, ACE hardware and the library. To come home, cook, host a play date, shower, get to a Girl Scout meeting, finish painting the office, put the kids to bet and write this post.

Just an average day.

Giggles and Mirrors

"Hey Laura, can you pop over and help me hang some mirrors?"

"Sure!"

And so she bops over...and then says "do you like round mirrors?" I have some that are perfect for your space.

And BOOM...she was right!!

Thanks, lady!

That Moment

That moment when you hear of a need for area families -- that they need sheets -- and your husband encourages you to go buy some. Like 21 pairs some. Love you, Hubs.

Uncle Jungle Matt

He's here! He's HERE! Momma's dear friend Uncle Jungle Matt came to visit - makes me sooo happy that my kids just adore this pilot, vagabond, stand-in uncle so much.

My Niece....

 So fun to see you on my trip to Lansing this week! Love you!

Oh Rosie!

 Our sweet new neighbor, Laura, heard I went to school for engineering. What she didn't know is my love of planes and flight. I read Rosie Revere to KK this week and I swear, I couldn't stop my eyes from watering. 

She was in love with Iggy Peck - and if she wants to be an architect, that's just fine with me. Love their love of learning, creating...now if I could only get them off the iPad!
