When Animals Attack!!

One of our dogs has a fascination with my daughters Barbie dolls. We have done our best to keep them out of his reach, but then one day Barbie was held captive.

The puppy was left unattended in the back yard...

Then the attack happened...

He struck without warning...


Poor Barbie tried to escape...

Her plastic limbs were no match for his razor sharp puppy teeth...


When the dust had cleared Barbie was never the same...

All the witnesses at the scene where changed forever by the attack...

Rest In Peace Barbie...

I'm a Hermit Crab

I have this habit during summer time. I wasn't sure it would follow me all the way across country when we moved. I have been super busy that I thought it wouldn't happen... well, it did and I am doing my old habit once again.

I turned into a hermit crab!

Let me explain a little. I do this thing (not on purpose, it just happens) were I disappear. The sun gets warm, school ends, I plan all these super cool summer activities to keep us all busy then out of nowhere... I crawl into my shell. I don't pick up the phone and call a girlfriend to chit chat, I come up with excuses to cancel appointments. I just want to stay home and enjoy my munchkins, no distractions, nothing that has to be done, just them and me.

Someone once said it might be seasonal depression. I don't know, I am not sad or down at all. I just don't want to go anywhere. I just want to be a Hermit Crab! Hard as I try to ignore this natural instinct of mine to crawl in my nice comfy safe place it still happens.

My girlfriends in South Carolina understand what I am talking about. For the last 4 summers I would get a phone call half way through "Where the heck have you been? Did you die? We miss you!" and I'd have to explain that I was fine, nothing exciting was going on, I was just at home playing with my kids. Well, I have a few new friends here in Arizona, but they have never seen me during the summer. I hope they don't drop me as a friend because I disappear for the summer.

I thoroughly enjoy it to be honest with you. It's like a vacation. No schedule, no appointments, nothing! Come this fall when school starts I'll crawl out, dust myself off and continue on with the crazy days I had left behind at the summer beginning. Am I nuts? does anyone else do this?

au revoir, adieu, ciao, till next time...

My Daughter Is A Creepy Person!

Ever wonder what happens when you let your daughter play with your photo editing program? Well, the mini-munchkin has been driving me up the wall to "make a picture pretty!" so this afternoon I gave in, prepare yourself people, it gets a little weird...

It all started so simply, what a cute shot of my munchkins
enjoying a morning on our recent trip to South California.
I love these two!

I'm a Lucky Weirdo!

My bloggy buddy, Stacey over at 4everMom tagged me to share seven of my weirdnesses (yes, that's a word 'cause Stacey said so!) with the world.

So here we go, seven weird things about me:

1. I talk to my dogs in a baby voice, "ooh, you're so cute, little puppy-wuppy" I wonder if they like it, or if they are constantly thinking "what is wrong with this lady??"

2. The intro to "Top Gun" is the best 5 minutes in movie making history! (according to me)

3. I don't like donuts, not that it helps my waistline in the least, I find plenty other sugary snacks to fill up on!

4. I would be totally content being cut off from civilization as long as I had internet access and my family.

5. I can not stand sneakers. I hate wearing shoes, period. Can't I just be barefoot everywhere?

6. My singing voice is terrible, but I still bless those around me with the drowning cat sound that comes out of my mouth. Why do I torture the one's I love so much?

7. I willingly watch kids cartoons with my munchkins. And, I enjoy them :)

There you have it, more weirdnesses about me. Now time to play tag...

I'm going to leave it up to you, if you would like to play along link back to me and share your weirdnesses. Please let me know if you play along so I can read about how weird you are, then I'll know I am not alone in my strange little world. Have fun!
