I am thankful
I have had a wild weekend and it has yet to slow down! Friday night I went to get a pedicure and out to dinner with my friends Becky and Darlene. We talked and laughed for hours and I didn't want to go home. Luckily the husband didn't get salmonella from his burger sitting out too long! Darlene is the baby of our group and we were celebrating her birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLENE! I am so thankful for these 2 ladies and the difference they have made in my life!
Today we had lunch at my parents house for Father's Day. I am so blessed to still have my Dad here on Earth. Even if he does make faces like this!
Then we took our annual trip to the cemetary. The girls always take a blue balloon with an orange string out there on their Dad's birthday and Father's Day. It has been 3 years and this is still a very hard thing for me to do. There are girls my age that are just losing their Daddy. My girls should not have to go through this! They let their balloon go and we watched it until we couldn't see it anymore. I think Pink still believes that it goes all the way to Heaven!
I am very thankful on this day that I have a wonderful Daddy and a man in my life that loves my girls as if they were his. Even if he does act like one of them most of the time!

Not Me! Monday
Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
What kind of woman would yell at her husband when he asked for $10? Then feel horrible when she found out he wanted to buy her some really cute sunglasses? Not me!
Who wears contacts that have a layer of salt on them from all the tears she has cried? Not me!
Surely I did not yell at my kids for losing my remote control, and then find it right next to my butt on the couch! Not me!
I definitely did not tell my daughter to pull her shirt down over her skirt to hide 2 holes in it! Not me!
I most certainly did not make my 3 girlies help set up at my cousin's wedding shower! Then sit in the rocker and visit with family. Not me!
I did not justify buying a $50 purse and getting a mani/pedi all because our meal at Applebee's stunk again and it was free! Not me!
Who lets her Dad and daughter pressure wash her house while she takes a nap? Not me!

Summer Fun
Yesterday the girls and I went to the zoo. We met several family members there that we have not seen in a while. The time together was great. It is so funny how it used to be all about me and my cousins having fun. Now, it is about our kids having fun. And they did. Anyone other than me ever notice how it just isn't as much fun once you are grown up? Mainly because I hurt when I walk, but anyway......
They often pretend that they like each other!
The whole bunch of kiddos!

Surely I did not make my daughter start a "First Cleanse" at the age of 13. And it was not at all because she eats only carbs! Not me!
I did not allow my children to believe we were going to play Putt Putt Golf. And I certainly did not take them to get tires on my car and my oil changed instead! Not me!
I definitely did not want to yank my 8 year old son out of his "grandparents" car because he was giving me those "help me eyes"! Not me!
I did not almost kill the muscles in my arm feeding nectar to birds today! Not me!
Certainly I did not want to steal the Pygmy Marmoset out of his cage because he was giving me the sweetest eyes! Not me!
And I did not guilt trip my husband into finally planning our vacation to Niagara Falls this summer. And of course I did not insist on going "kid free". Not me!
