A Juicy Morning

Something is wrong with this picture:  it's Wednesday, and the golfing gals golfed.  It always rains on Wednesday so we rarely golf together. We made up for it today. Are we good? Hell no! But we can laugh and be silly and when the 9 holes are over, we walk away with a warm fuzzy feeling. Ok, I am speaking for myself now. We call ourselves the "Leen's" and we golf sporatically together. Lynn and Linda enjoy the thrill of searching for balls in any water source and Mar and Shirl stand and watch. I took a few pix to share...doesn't it look like we're having fun?  Juice, girls!!

Shaking All Over

Quick post...we just had our first earthquake of the century! It was a little one, less than 20 seconds but one nonetheless. I was on the phone with our daughter who works in Toronto and she was the first to notice that her desk was shaking. At first, she wondered if it had anything to do with the G20. What excitement!!

The First One is the Hardest

They say "better late than never" and it is getting late! It was a busy day full of appointments and our last ballroom dance lesson tonight. I did manage to squeeze in one layout this afternoon. We went to Vegas with friends several years ago and the pictures are still sitting on the desk so I decided to do something about it. Getting out all the paper and making a decision on how it was going to start, took way too long so I quickly whipped it up and now I have that monkey off my back! The first of many pages is done. I know I will add to it but it is a simple layout using two 4x6" photos. I used "George" to cut the letters and added a tag that I covered, added  ribbon then journalled on the back. I tucked it into the bottom picture with the top showing. Hope you like it!

Summertime

It's officially here....SUMMER!! Longest day of the year....yahoo! We had the best Father's Day yesterday with the kids coming home for the day. Our son Matt provided a delicious pulled pork dish and I had a variety of cold salads ready to go...carrot, pasta and broccoli. A dip in the pool, a few cold drinks and we had the makings of a perfect day! Our daughter Cat helped me with my blog. How did you celebrate the day?

Happy Father's Day! My Dad passed away March 2009 and I miss him. He loved every sport but enjoyed a game of golf. So, here's to you Dad. Hope you are enjoying your round today. I love you!
