this week so far...

I wish I could figure out how to insert text in between photos, but I cannot.

anyone who knows how to do this would be a great help to me.

so anyway, happy thursday.

what's up in our little world this week? let's see....

Spring is finally showing its face in our back yard...we have a beautiful flowering tree...its my favorite of everything in the back yard. I don't know what it is, but every spring it grows these pretty white flowers for about 3 weeks, and then they all fall off all over the yard....it's really kinda sad that the flowers only get to live for so long. but I do look forward to seeing them each spring.

logan has been playing with some of his birthday toys. which is a huge relief; cause dontcha hate it when you buy your kids something they have been begging for and then they never play with it again? this happens A LOT around here.

as I'm going through all of my craft stuff for purging/moving...I notice my punch basket is really overgrown. I mean how many punches do I really need? then again, you'd be surprised. I think I NEED them all, so far I can't part with any of them. I'm justifying this in my head by reminding myself that I allow the kids to use them, so they are worth keeping. so, in that line of thinking, maybe I get to keep everything I own, if I share it with my kids? hmmmm...something to consider.

I took a photo of logan at yesterdays breakfast..I know I'm forgetting LOTS of stuff lately; but I know for a fact, that I did not put THAT much syrup on his plate....yuck! That may be the reason behind all the hyped up behaviors after school, he was still high off breakfast. of course.

and lastly here is me.

I'm not so sure how I feel about the stripes in that shirt. I never wear polo-ish looking shirts, but how could I not get a pumpkin orange and prettyinpink striped top? I mean, hello? I needed something to go with those bangin' earrings I found!!!!

so, that's really been our week so far. trees, toys and earrings. sounds fine to me.

today I have lots of garage stuff to go through. last night I went through three bins that have been packed up since we left Arizona in may 2005...and guess what, I emptied them all, and only saved a few things that were letters and memorabilia from long ago....I can't believe I've had that taking up all that room for almost 3 years here and we didn't need any of it. that's a good indicator of how I usually do things....out of sight out of mind, until the next move when I have to deal with it.

well its now 7am, so I better get the day going...
