Fun~Fun~Fun

I have been having fun for the past 2 weeks as you have all been reading about in my previous posts. Tuesday was warm out so my friend Beth and I decided to go out in my front yard and play catch.This is not ordinary catch. I saw this monster catching set at the store and I just had to get it. If it says monster my family has to have it. My sister owns the monster badminton set, my brother the monster valley ball set and now me with the monster catching set. I only bought one set so we had to take turns with my brother and some friends that showed up. The catching disks are bigger then my head and that is great cause in this family they like to fire the balls at you. I loved it and we were out there for 3-5 hours just being kids again and goofing off. I didn't have a care in the world besides playing and not getting hit with the ball. That night I wished I would have put sun block on my face. My poor cheeks were burnt. I did not think you could get a sunburn in spring but I found out you can.


When it got to late we all came in side. My brother just had to try out a Bingo game that I picked up at a yard sale. I went in and gabbed a bag of candy I had for when kids visit and used it as prizes. You can't play Bingo without prizes. You would never know the room was full of adults. We all acted like a bunch of kids. It was the funniest thing I ever saw. I know this summer it is going to get crazy. It has already started!

Today a group of us wanted to play again but I had to fix the disks first. We had played with them so much that the threads were coming undone. I went to sew them by hand and it was hard because the material was thick. I could not find a thimble so I did it without one. One good push and I shoved that needle right through my nail. My brother heard me whine and came in to see what was up. He saw the needle through my nail and started laughing at me. He then walked back into the other room and returned shortly with a bottle cap. He stuck it on my thumb and told me to use that as a thimble then walked away again laughing. Brothers can have good ideas but I still think he is a butt head for laughing at me. I know the cap will come in handy because I have a lot more sewing to do tomorrow.

My friend Johnny, from down the street, came over with his little boy, Austin, today. I just love it when they come to visit. Austin tries to get into everything, but whenever I tell him no he just smiles at me. He is such a sweety.

Tomorrow is Friday and that means the weekend. I never know what is going to happen on the weekends or who will be stopping by for visits. Maybe I can hit the yard Sales!

Blogger Problems

Well from the looks of it Blogger is having some problems. I had a post I wanted to put up today but because I can't get my pictures added I will wait.

I added my e-mail address to my side bar so if anyone wants to talk outside of blogger feel free to write me.

If I have not been by your blog in a while I will try to stop by. Well I hope blogger has its problems fixed so I can put up my post later. God Bless and Keep SmilingSmile

A Day Outing With Michelle and Faith

The people who are closest to me know that I use to take care of children. I have spent a good part of my life with children. Last year I gave it up to go back to school to get my G.E. D. I did graduate as most of you know but was lonely because there were no children around anymore. I got a computer and a digital camera and found a new joy, taking pictures. As I had said in another post I was waiting for Michelle to show up so we could go to the museum together. I have never been so happy as I was that day.My two greatest joys brought together, a child and snapping pictures.

Faith just loves to pose for pictures.
She would run over and stand in front of something then say "Take my picture Sini" and I just had too. There was no way I was telling her no.She really loved pulling the rope and then watching the elevator go up and down.When we were finished looking around, Michelle bought her a cookie at the bakery.We then stop at the gift shop.There were two cook books there that I wanted.One was chicken recipes and the other was slow cooker recipes. I bought the chicken recipe book. I have herd tell of a chicken club. Maybe I can use my sneakiness to get into the club.HE HE HE

If not then I will have more chicken recipes to cook. We eat a lot of chicken, turkey and fish so it will come in handy.
Faith had a blast and afterwards Michelle decided to take us to the park. I had a blast there because there were so many places I wanted to take photos. I felt like a kid in a candy store.I took some great photos there. I wanted to get some mother daughter shots and I think I got a couple of pretty good ones. I did take a lot of photos but I only put the best ones on here.
Then I took some shots of faith by herself. She is a little camera ham.She did get a little annoyed at me because she was ready to go play.She only got to play for a short time then her daddy called and needed a ride home from work. Faith was very upset that we had to leave. Later that day Michelle was able to take her back to the park. I did go back to the gift shop the next day to buy the other cook book .
