Parade Rest!

Parades are fantabulous! I love them and I seek them out all summer long. The thrill of finding a good spot facing the shady way. Eating breakfast/lunch/dinner on the sidewalk on a main street. Letting your children literally play in traffic in the middle of the street to take candy from strangers! God bless America! I really do love this time of year and now when we see the flag and hear all the sirens, I cry like a betsy wetsy doll. I just get very emotional about those that are fighting to keep people safe and using their own lives to do it with.
On a lighter side my husband and his crazy band of friends have decided that parades are like walking ads and they need more fun. So see if you can find him.......( ARRRRGGGG!!!)













memory tag

This is a fun tag that is running rampant throughout my bloggy blog world. I want to hear from ALL Y'ALL...even if you have never commented before!
Here are the rules.1. As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember! If we're only blogging friends, write about a post that is most memorable. If you don't have a blog and don't know how to sign in, please comment as anonymous.
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll be sure to write one about you... either on your blog, in my comment box, or I will email you back!
3. If the memory happens to involve my husband, please include him!
4. If you can't say something nice, don't say nothin' at all ☺Okay, let's see what you've got!

Half full of half empty


Summer is in full swing and the other day someone said "Summer is half over next week". True to the calendar it might be, but come on. I like to think that since I personally don't have to go back to school this August then my summer is until September. As an adult, I can go to Pineview and play all day or the mall or the movies. Summer can last forever! Well not forever, but longer than three months. We wait all winter, through snow and cold and grey days of clouds to sweat it out. So yes the 4th of July might signal to some that the fall is coming but to me I will look at the glass as half full and make summer stay a little longer.

What are you doing with your glorious summer?
