Recently Sarah and Samuel visited us from Texas spending the night with us and the four pups ((we were dog sitting Dora and Kenzie for the month of July)). During their visit Megan and I had the ability to play with Samuel and his small animal toys. It’s truly amazing how someone so young can know so much!
Literally. Josh and I were asked to go camping with my brother and my parents the last weekend in June. Both of us camped in our childhood, but in our adult lives we hadn’t and we needed to purchase a tent. Josh did all the research checking out each tent to make sure we wouldn’t get leaked on etc. And he found what became known as the tank of all tents. Really, the Versa could park inside it!
Rick and Maria were kind enough to give us digital copies of the pictures from Our 10.11.08 in order to display them on Inside Our Shell! We reduced the quality and made them much smaller so they’ll download quick, so if you see a picture that isn’t super sharp it’s our fault not the Blanco’s!
BTW: The pictures are absolutely beautiful!
Today while at work a co-worker of mine asked the rest of my department if anyone would like a radish? Yes, a radish! Now I am all for being generous and offering friends and co-workers if they’d like some of what I may have, but there are certain things you think you’ll never be offered or will never think of offering others and a radish falls into that group. A radish, really?
On April 29, “Lost” celebrates its 100th episode. Sure, there were a few stinkers and clip shows needed to get to that milestone. There was some frustration about secrets kept too long, characters left undeveloped (or overexposed) and plot points forgotten. But all in all, the show’s offered one heck of a ride for those patient enough with it. In honor of the 100th episode, we thought we would take a look at 100 of the show’s best moments. In no particular order, they are:
One thing I think Josh and I will agree on without question is that our backyard had a lot to be desired. Since we bought the house almost 4 years ago our backyard was nothing impressive and nothing worthy of spending any time in. It was more so just there and while we cut the lawn and let the dogs out to take care of their business, it was never a place we spent any time.
