9 on 11

I know that for those that play this game, this is supposed to 10 on 10, and done yesterday, the 10th.  

But I forgot until I read Megan's post - and thought - i have some peace and quiet so let me do this now....

Ok...possibly the sweetest baby ever - their baby half-brother.  He was dressed as a cow for halloween.  I could eat this boy up - just look at him.



and all 3 of them before we headed out to the costume contest...Nick was more interested in the grass :)....which is fitting for a cow i guess.
 

Ah, the pantry.  I show you this only because it doesn't look like this anymore.  My one and only looked at it on Sunday and said "ENOUGH"....bless his heart.  Yep, those are bags of chips on the floor, among Crisco and the mixers.  We have all angles covered I think.


And here is where we are now with this project

 
Ok, just kidding. We're further than that.  Look, recycle bin in the middle.  Cubbies for cat food and bins that still need shelves to the right and left to put more stuff.  Momma's a happy girl.

 Late work night dinner.  In bed.  Don't judge.  I had been starting at spreadsheets all day, talking to 2 different IT teams and i was needing comfort wherever i could get it.  Sushi, wine, laptop and bed.

The aforementioned spreadsheets.  GRRRRrrrrrr.



 My young men - look how they love each other LOL.
 
  
and, the last one...sweet child running to first last week. Too busy watching where his ball ended up instead of toward 1st base. 


I forget about doing this and i need to be better than that - it's a great way to update loved ones near and far.  This is for Mom and Dad, and Mom and Joe.  See you soon...

10 on 10

I'm doing that 10 on 10 thing today....except - this is awesome - i have no idea who started it.  I know my VBFF does it...except she is mysteriously silent today..... and i'm also joining the women at the Picket Fence for Inspiration Friday - as this 10 on 10 idea did "inspire" me to use that expensive camera more. Ten pics on the 10th of the month.  This has been a great way to archive memories - without getting too burdened down with scrapbooking.  So....here we go!




I think I should call this "Sun rise through dirty window" - but i didn't want to stop and clean the window before i capture the gorgeous color of the morning.  I love this time of day.

 "You had better have good reason for waking me up....like tuna...not that dry crap you've been feeding me."

One of us graduated from elementary school!! One of us felt tortured sitting through the ceremony.
We played the last baseball game of the season, got our trophy bats and celebrated with good friends.
 
We put together fancy straws....
....and got cute lei's for a Bunco (Bunko?) Luau....
We gave our last speech of the year on famous Floridians - Lue Gim Gong - the horticulturist who developed the Valencia orange! (Ask me all about...i promise you i know more than the average bear about this person)

We scowled at mom who was trying to take our picture when all we want to do is watch our brother's last game...
We broke in the pool!
 
 and...we sat in our yard and stared up at this beautiful specimen - isn't she gorgeous?  There are worse views.
