wordless wednesday



apparently I now live in the path of a hurricane. cool.

sad!

no one played our "where's bear" game....

well the scoop is, since I did promise it today....

DH was at OSU Medical Center hospital for 60 hours straight this weekend. Bear and I delivered clean clothes and shower stuff to him 2x so he wouldn't be a stinky doctor! hehe.

This is bear reacting to my continuous: where's daddy?!?! he was getting really excited waiting for DH to come out to the car!

I'll try to do a fun where's bear post every week...hehe....next time, you better participate! ha!

Thankful!!!

1. I had a self-imposed 4 day work week and I loved it! I did nothing but sleep on Monday but it was ooooh-sooooo worth it!

2. Scrapbooking in Amish Country Ohio was so fun! I love my friends I've made here in C-bus through scrapping! D is pretty much my bestie.

3. The olympics have created some great quality time for DH and me. Yes, we've caught the fever and stay up way way way too late and grumble in the mornings, but I do like that we're experiencing all the ups and downs together (thankfull, more ups...i.e. phelps, nastia, bolt)

4. I haven't missed MN yet this week. Well, writing that just threw that out the window. hmmmm.

5. Giant Eagle carries these new snacks, and I like Almond Crunch. It is all natural clusters, baked, lightly sweetened (and I mean like hardly a pinch), totally 100% vegan friendly. No, this does no imply a diet change, just a neat fact, or something.

Tuesday Tip

We loved traveling to Cincinnati/Kentucky for a mini-vacation in March. One of our first stops was Newport Aquarium!

It is a large, indoor experience! Our favorites were the otters and penguins. We could have watched them both all day! (In fact, we did spend quite a bit of time in the afternoon watching the penguins as it was rainy and we didn't feel like leaving quite yet!)
