Good Morning, MMC!!!!!! It's been a stormy morning here in central Indy and it knocked my cable and internet there for a while. Everything is back up and running though and it looks the worst of the storms are done with for the day. Not a whole lot going on here. I need to get my normal cleaning done and then I want to clean out my pantry. I'll have Hallmark on in the background too of course. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

I'm glad everything is back up & running. I hope you have a great day too!!!

Stay cool and have fun!!!!!!!

Thanks Made!!!

I wish it was in the 80's here, we are expecting to hit the triple digits this weekend. Blah!

I don't think I would survive triple digits. We are currently at a humid 88 and I can barely function!

Here comes your Gracie overload!!!!

Spending time on the neighbors steps at the lake:



Gracie & Jackson (neighbors wheaten) at the lake:



Gracie is worn out after playing with Jackson all day:

ADORABLE! Thanks for sharing!!!

Yep!! Some really neat things, too. Love browsing through Fall/Harvest catalogs!!

Bahahahaha!! He should definitely do your dishes!!

But of course!!! :lol:

Do you know how hot is down in Texas? I may not make it back alive!!!!

Not to worry, I will have the AC going! =)

Yes!! LOL!!

I lived in Vegas, remember?

You'll be fine! Just drink plenty of water!!

This may sound crazy and I think I mentioned it before. Even though the temps are a little higher in Vegas it feels WAY better there than here in Texas! I have had 15 different family members that are here from Texas go to Vegas and tell me they would take their heat any day over ours. My niece is in the Army and was stationed in Vegas for a couple of years, she said the heat was much more tolerable than here. Still hot in Vegas though!!!! It's the high humidity here that makes it so dang hot! She got stationed in Vegas then moved from there to Alaska! What a difference!!!

My parents and I were talking about going back to Vegas. My mom loves to gamble but Wayne and I don't really care that much for that. We want to go and see, Beatles -Love, and just see all the new things they have built since I been last time. Wayne has never been so hopefully we can soon!

The few more I promised (Ha ha)

My brother from MA was home this weekend & this is his bad influence on my girl:



Here she is playing with my great nephew - he is 3 & he ADORES Gracie:




And one last one I took last night - whipped girl!



I promise - that's all! You asked..... Ha ha ha!

Sounds like great fun! I have been lighting my pumpkin candles to make it smell like the holidays here along with Hallmark Christmas movies!

You know it is after the 4th of July when the Harvest 2014 catalog arrives.

Another catalog I need to get!!!

I know you and I have talked about our kids growing up and moving away. It's hard! I will be thinking about you and pray you will not suffer empty nest syndrome for too long!

I don't think I would survive triple digits. We are currently at a humid 88 and I can barely function!

Oh how I wish it was 88 degrees again! Ha ha! Take care and keep cool!!!

Love the pictures, Holiday!!! So darn cute!!!

Beatles Love is amazing!! Hope you guys can go together one day. I just love people watching & exploring there =]

You may be right... I've learned hot is hot! Dry heat or humidity, both are extreme in their own way. I've lived in both, and don't care for either, LOL!!

Hello all.

This weekend is my anniversary and we are excited! Kids will be at grandma's and I'm taking my lovely bride on a date! Saturday will be 11 years. Time goes fast!

So does anyone have any romantic date ideas?

Happy Anniversary a little early!!! I'm sure you will find something romantic/fun to do!! ENJOY!!!

She is holding her own. It looks like we may have things under control finally. Not going to uncross my fingers just yet though.

Thanks for asking.

Glad to hear that!!

I'm glad. I'll keep praying.




Thanks!




She mentioned the other day going to Save and Busters which is an arcade for adults (not sure if they have them in your region or not).

Thanks for the ideas. A mystery dinner would be fun!

We have Dave & Busters here too!

I can't believe we are under 130 days. It's amazing. Seems like yesterday we were at 200.

Going to be in and out the next couple of days. Heading to a convention. Yall be good!

Hope the convention goes well!!

Morning all!! Its a lovely sunny start to the day here in the UK, just about to go om the school run then nip to the supermarket for afew bit before heading back home to do the usual chores!!

Watching the Tv yesterday and a my little pony toy came on, my youngest daughter started shouting that she wanted to put it on her christmas list for santa!! I was itching to find out the xmas list writing set I bought for them last year haha!! Still it wont be too long before I do actually ask them what they want santa to bring them! I like to start my lists around september when they have gone back to school!!

Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Exciting!! Hope you are having a great day!

Good morning MMC!
Rainy foggy day here today, and 59F
Expecting thunder and lightning this afternoon too!

Wish you a wonderful Tuesday!!!¢¾

Stay safe!

Good Morning, Crazy Creative Creatures of Christmas.

Marching on we are -- through the week and through our count.
As so noted:
Days to the Season: 128
Days to Christmas Day: 170

Now UNDER a week away from our next Milestone, the two-thirds marker to Christmas Season 2014.
(Wow. Just imagine. Less than a week to go to Milestone number ELEVEN. Just look how many markers we have passed already!)


The temps keep getting hotter and wouldn't you know, our A/C gave up yesterday evening.
Naturally, the two hottest predicted days of the week are today and tomorrow!
(Must be a corollary of Murphy's Law.)
We have started off here at 79 degrees already this morning.

Well, try to stay cool.....and have a Terrific Tuesday while you're at it!

I hope your AC can be fixed soon!! Stay cool!!!
