Month: August 2012

  • Finally bedtime!

  • Our Top 5 Olympic Games

    I asked Army what his Top 5 events to watch were and he said Men's Basketball, Badminton, Swimming, Volleyball and Track & Field.  He seems to watch everything though.

    I don't get to watch nearly as much as he does, but my Top 5 are Diving, Swimming, Soccer, Athletics and Gymnastics.

    We both love the Olympics and really wish that we were at the London Games right now, watching from the stands... cheering for Team USA!  Hopefully, in the 2016 Olympics we'll be able to attend... wherever that may be!

    Oh, Army just reminded me that it'll be in Rio.

    Edit ~  Here's a few more.  This dragonfly wasn't very shy.    Also, none of these photos are cropped unless otherwise specified.

    ^ Look at that winning smile! :D

    "What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again."

    Had a little Photoshop fun.
  • My fat love, loves to hug.

    We're heading back home from the Merrimack Premium Outlets that just opened this year. It's pretty nice. Love tax-free shopping.
