Picture a Day #93

Yes I was brave enough to ride ONE of the rides and Travis you could hardly see.

HE rode most of the rides, it was dollar a ride day!

Cigarettes

I cant handle the insensitive ideals of most smokers!! I cant even have the back door open at night because they like to hang out on there patios and smoke!! The smoke from the disgusting habit wafts on through the whole house and stinks!! GAWD, dont they realize that its against the apartment rules to smoke on the patios, they also like to throw the butts onto our patio or in the front yard or near the cars. HMPH, grumble and ROAR!!

YAY, FREE IS AWESOME

I forgot that the theatres here in the salem area do special FREE showings of kids shows during the summer. I just found the website and I cant wait for next week. The showing is of "Pirates Who Dont Do Anything" veggie tales!!!!! I am so excited. The theatres in the salem didnt show it like a regular movie. SO, i am going to the free showing!!

Picture a Day #90

This is Sam at first for the third time this game.

She is like the best player. She made 5 awesome plays that kept the other team from scoring at least 5 points.

GO SAM!!

We won last night by the way!!

Picture a Day #89

My family is big into The Eastern Star and the Masons.

So my daughter was asked to be the one to bring in the bible for the beginnig ceremony. She is so pretty and grown up.

This is grandpa playing the banjo while we are waiting for the rest of the program.

Picture a Day #88

Even with the gas prices the way they are we still like to go on short rides to nowhere and find things that are really neat. On this ride we had the privlege to see the sunset looking so awesome.

Picture a Day #84

We found this guy just hanging out in monmouth. The kids love to go try to find some, we found out that there is only 3 left. The city got rid of the rest of them. This one and his brother are to mean to catch, which i think means that they are just smarter than the humans! There is also a female that is left she was nesting and by law they cant move her. Hopefully they leave them alone and there numbers begin to grow again. I mean really they were there first and they dont harm anything.

Picture a Day #83

These casserole dishes and the rack they are in



This is a picture of my finds around the garbage/recycle bins. This is the time of year that the college kids move out and throw away tons of stuff that is brand new!! Yay for me

Picture a Day #82
