*My class is over, and I have three blissful homework free weeks ahead of me. I got an A and my teacher said some really good things about my final paper, I think she actually read it! (Last semester the only comment my teacher ever made was, "great paper".) I'm seriously still amazed that my brain actually works. Sometimes I really wonder.
*Cole and Cagney have pink eye (we think) so I stayed home from church with them today. It was so nice and quiet with just me and the littles here. I painted my toes, they needed it bad. Don't you just love the names of nail polish? This one is called Almond Crunch and is the pink color of an almond roca package.
*I just made zucchini muffins. Trevors mom gave us a bunch of zucchini. I love it when people share their harvest. YUM.
* Girls day was yesterday and it was so nice and relaxing. I made a couple of skirts. I'm totally not a seamstress. I really like to sew but I'm not good at it. Oh well, just don't look at the seems too closely.
*Last night as part of girls day we went and saw "Julie and Julia". I loved it. It was so cute and funny and just a feel good movie. I totally recommend it.
*Miquelle had a great time at oakcrest. LOVED it. She starts school in a couple of weeks and wants the time to pass quickly, she is ready. I, on the other hand, would like the next couple of weeks to last as long as possible!!
*We have had a cooler spell the last couple of days and it has made me so excited for fall! I don't want it to be here yet but I will be ready when it gets here! Wouldn't it be nice if we had an unusually warm fall like we did last year? It's my favorite time of the year. I especially love decorating for fall. I got some cute stuff last year on clearance and I'm so excited to use it this year.
*We have one more week of swimming lessons. I thought it would drive me crazy to be at the pool everyday but I have loved it. It has been so nice to just sit by the pool at watch the kids. They have all improved so much and it has been fun to watch.
*My parents are in Boston AND HAVING A REALLY GOOD TIME. I'm totally jealous, I want to go to New England. Someday. I need to go up to their house later and raid their garden. More yummy stuff.
*We have been keeping track since March of license plates and have only 10 more until we find all 50 states. The kids have had fun looking for different license plates. People probably think we are stalking them because we have followed their cars rather closely to try to see the license plate. Last night while walking in to the movie I saw Vermont. Now we just need Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii (Jared is convinced we will never see this one), Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and West Virginia. (I bet my parents will see a lot of those!) What about you? How long do you think it would take you to find all 50?

About the license plates: we found plates for all but 8 states on our most recent road trip. How? By going to a National Park! We also saw license plates from three different Canadian Provinces and amazingly, one from... Germany! We still haven't figured out why someone would ship their German car over here. So, that said... there is a chance you may see Hawaii!
Hey some people just moved into our neighborhood from Hawaii! You can drive out here and see their license plate it you want ;) I'm glad you didn't share the story about scaring the crap out of me when finding Vermont :D Can I come raid Grandma and Grandpa's garden too?? Yum! I love gardens! I want one so bad, but not without a fence and dogs running around here :(
