New Week, New Post

Nothing too new to report this week, so I though I would blog about the summer. It seems as though the summer goes by so fast, and it gets faster and faster each year. I try to savor every minute, as many of you know, summer is my favorite time of the year.


(A curious on looker during our bike ride at Berry College...isn't she cute)!





This year we have spend a lot of time with friends. We have had bike rides at Berry College, camping in the back yard, time at the lake and added a new family member! Here are some of the Summer of '09 memories...


Here Tim is at the lake on Memorial Day with the kids...


And camping with Scot and the boys...


And our new little man...Emmett, the final addition to our feline part of the family...Emmett has the most unusual facial expressions.


Guess I fell asleep after work one day and Tim was quick with the camera!!


My handsome Maverick Renegade...


Bike riding at Berry College...


DeAnn and me at the Old Mill, taking a much needed rest during our ride...




Of course there are other memories as well, and more pictures to come, as summer is not over yet!! Hope everyone has a great week!

Birthday Month!!

Tim decided very early on this month to celebrate his birthday all month...ALL MONTH. And so he has!! Today we were able to meet Scot and DeAnn for a nice afternoon birthday lunch at Joe's Crab Shack!

It's so awesome to have friends that will celebrate anything, anytime anywhere, and indulge in a Birthday Month!!


As some of you may, or may not know, Tim has been...shall we say, intrigued by the 2012 theory of The End of Time situated around the Mayan Calendar and Nostradamus writings (and many other galactic alignments). So Scot and DeAnn found him the most PERFECT book to read up on the matter. Beyond 2012, Catastrophe or Awaking? Cool!!

They are also kind enough to support his cigar smoking habit with a couple of really cool cigars. A Ghurka Black Dragon Fire and K. Hansotia Ancient Warrior. Umm...decisions, decisions....

DeAnn even made Tim a chocolate pound cake, which was delicious. Tim has it hidden in the fridge somewhere as I type...probably planning to eat the rest of his after smoking his cigar!

Evan our loving felines are willing to celebrate...well, not really. You can see how excited Jessie and Emmett are to celebrate...



And Maverick....

Here I am with two of my boys! Mavie and Emmett are battling it out for lap space, which mommy just doesn't have a lot of!!

Anyway, as the month of July comes to an end. I think it is safe to say that Tim has had an awesome birthday month!
