Wipe away the dust.. it's time to start up again!

Oh my goodness. A week off from work can really get you lagging. I've got to get back into the swing of things at school. Just think... Halloween will be here soon... and that means Thanksgiving is around the corner... and you know what that means?! Christmas will be here before you know it! :) I love 96.1 because they start playing Christmas music November 1st, yes the day after Halloween. It's beautiful!

Anyhoo. So Gustav sucked! Hopefully we won't be having dejavu with Ike on the way. No offense Texas, but it's your turn on this one. (psst Take a hike Ike... to Texas!)

My funny thought for the day: "Kids say the funniest things!"

My nephew, Lil C, is definitely no exception to this rule. My sister was trying to explain to him that I have a baby in my "tummy" and that there will be a baby soon, etc. This is how the conversation went:

H: "Lil C, did you know that shibmomma has a baby in her belly?"

Lil C: "No she doesn't." *laughing hysterically*

H: "Yes, she has a baby in her tummy!"

Lil C: continuing to laugh... "She didn't ate a BABY momma!!!

ha ha ha! Over his head! This was shortly after he logically explained that he was crying because his "bobo hurt reewwl bad!"

I guess in a 5 year old mind, bobos hurt and babies don't come from bellies. :)

Ok so I am way overdue for some beach pictures from this year's family trip... but here are a few:

Bob was continuously called "Landshark" throughout the vacation because his head was shaved into a mohawk the night before the trip when he had passed out. He actually could pull off the hawk.

So here he is, doing his Landshark impression..

Here is Mr. M and I soaking up some rays. I'll have you know that the only sunburn I received was on my part in my hair... which is wonderful because then it looks like you have dandruff when it peels. Lucky me.

HA! I LOVE this picture! :) So my future sis-in-law

somehow manages to fall over and all we can do is laugh and point. Notice her ever-loving fiance lending a hand to help. Don't get up Bob... we wouldn't want you to put too much effort into this save. :)

*Notice the beer is safe people.... Game on...

Good thing for cousin L! Always lending a helping hand!

and finally last, but certainly not least.... can we say, "COON EYES?!"

This is prob the worst pair of coon eyes I have ever seen! I love it!
