air conditioning & air fresheners

Piper did this last year and I thought it was both smart and funny. She likes to lay over the air conditioning vent to keep herself cool. Sometimes she'll let the air blow on her face, and other times she'll plop her tummy right over it and lay like she is above. The thing that I thought was funny this year is that for about a week before it was really hot enough to turn the a/c on, she'd lay there like she was waiting for the cool air to come. I guess a dog gets hotter before people... that fur and all you know. So finally the a/c has had to come on and she has her favorite spot in the whole house back.

I left the boys for about 5 minutes while I went to the store on the corner to get a bag of ice. I come back in the house and smell the most wonderful smell. Mmmm. What is that??? Somebody has been baking? - Kind of. Trevor was trying to use the microwave timer and instead cooked my new bag of sourdough bread that I brought home from the store today. My bread drawer was full, so I just stuck it in the microwave to store it. He's since had a lesson in how to work the timer on the microwave, but the plastic bag of steamed sourdough made my house smell really good. Now I'm really hungry!

This weekend was loooong and quiet. It was perfect. We just hung around the house, and the kids would play with friends every now and then. This photo was another surprise on my card, but I don't know which of the boys took it. I do think it's funny to see Megan hanging out on the couch playing her DS which she did for most of the weekend, and the pirate ship, castle and pokemon sitting on the side table. Those have to be the best toys that have been played with forever. Actually, the castle belonged to my sister's boys... one of whom is driving now and the other that just graduated from high school... so that castle has been loved for years. I love toys like that.

We also got two of the old style pirate ships from them too. So now we actually have FOUR pirate ships. It's funny watching the boys set them up and shoot each other.
