Yay for bug hunters.

The quilt is progressing:

Friday: books and games

I added a new gadget to the blog (it's down under all the blog list and such)...what I'm reading. We'll see how it goes. Hopefully it will help me keep track of what I've read better.

Clay, Jess, and Hugh came over for pizza and games tonight. Below is Hugh's first time playing Rockband. We also played Cities and Knights Catan which I haven't played in a long time. It was a lot of fun.

Thursday: email

Tonight I was at home and emailed my work account a reminder to email someone tomorrow. (I only have their email addresses at work.) One of those little things that need to be done and I keep forgetting.

Two seconds later I turned to my work computer and saw the email.

Monday: 5 question Friday

1. Do you have an iPhone, and if so what apps are your favorites?

I have an iPhone by proxy. My favorite app is "Map" because it is sort of like a GPS and comes in very handy when we're unexpectedly lost. FloodIt and the fast Risk game Ben has are next.

2. Where do you go to relax?

A couch or the bed with my book.

3. What makes you cringe at the thought of touching?

Maggots in water.

4. If you could have any celebrity show up on your doorstep who would it be and why? Nathan Fillion. I've just liked everything he's been in, so obviously he'd be cool in real life too.

5. What do you think is your best physical feature?

My eyes.

Sunday: shirt and lunch

So Friday night I checked the mail before on our way to dinner. Woah...I package from my dad! I wasn't expecting anything, but it was a random shirt! How fun.

Then for lunch Ben made grilled cheese using some smoked gouda with bacon. It was delicious.

Friday: a night with the Parrs

Tonight we decided to eat at Our Country Hearts (which none of us had eaten at before) and then play some mini-golf.

Ben stole the camera and started taking pictures of random things.

I told him he had to take pictures of friends, so he took a picture of his Coke (the picture actually turned out pretty cool I think.)

He managed to take a few more before I stole it back from him.

Then we played mini-golf.

Lastly, we watched UP. It was a much sadder movie than I had anticipated. I don't want Ben to die!! But, I did love Kevin. I thought it was funny how she tried to imitate the objects around her.

Thursday: dandylions

So today I thought we'd talk about dandylions. Really, I think they're rather beautiful. Sure, they are annoying when you're trying to keep them out of your yard, but everywhere else I like them. They're just the perfect color yellow to be super cheery.

Then after the beautiful yellow flowers come these wonderful poofs. As we were driving this weekend we saw field upon field of poofs...it looked like so much fun to play in.

I'll admit though that dandelion stems are ugly.
