I did a photo for Saint iv’s count down to XDK. My number is TODAY! LINK
It was great fun taking the picture, but I am more than sure my children wanted to hurt me… I made all three of them pose for at least fifteen shots with tiny little cut out magazine numbers on their tongues. 
What’s the point in having children if you can’t use them for count down pictures?
Well I haven’t done a FAVORITE THINGS post in awhile and now seems like as good a time as any…
So I’ll start with Mika- Big Girls you are Beautiful! I love the song… it’s got a good beat and you can dance to it.
GOOD READ
The Sister’s Grimm
One of my favorite book series.
I read them to the monsters as soon as they come out. They are entertaining for us all.
Sometimes they lead to opportunities to share fairy tales that I haven’t told them about yet.
ART
Peter Mcgrain
He is a glass artist. I someday hope to take one of his glass painting classes!
FOOD
In this case it isn’t really my favorite food but a website.
Cooking By Numbers
You enter the things you want to use, or what you have in your fridge to use and it spits out a recipe and menu for you! I may have to do a post on this one… going through the whole process to show how well it works.
And just because a website feels like cheating…
Pan fried or steamed dumplings…
There is a place here called FU HA that has THE best… They look a million times better then these and now I WANT SOME!
So I covered music, books, art and food… what else is there in life?
Friends and Xanga!
Well, you all know I like all of you! I don’t really have FAVORITES…
BUT right now I am enjoying his blog…
BrysonMC
He just returned from Cambodia and is sharing the experience,
He does awesome videos… You guys are a couple of days behind, good thing you can read back blogs, go check it out, I know you’d love it…
And my forever favorite…
My honey, who always humors me when I am being silly.
That’s it for my favorites right now…
I know what I’d like to hear!
Is there one particular blog that you are enjoying right NOW…
I mean, maybe they are cooking or traveling or going through a life experience…
and sharing it… Please link it in my comments!
With WHY your liking it.
So we can all go see!
See!
Even though I am spending all of my time at the beach I am still thinking of you guys!
No one can say I don’t know how to entertain myself.
This is a continuation of the last two posts…
This is it, I will subject you to no more from this weekend…
But you all know I will probably take more later this week, right? 
I saw a field of deep purple, so I had to stop and appreciate it.
Then it was off to Harbor Days…
(Ben and I were married under the trees on the left side of this picture.)
I took my toys with me.
Is it a weed or a flower? A flower on a weed?
Beech tree… also a beAch tree… Aren’t I cleaver. *snort*
With people…
The END…
If I walked up to you on the street and asked you to look through my magnifying glass and let me take your picture, WOULD YOU DO IT?
His favorite ride…
Until he’s a little older though Mama has to drive.
We went to another festival tonight (yesterday technically) and watched fireworks.
It was a great day.
I took some different magnifying glasses to play with.
It was incredible fun… My children are patient with me.
This is a projector lens…
I love how it flips the image, I had some great fun with this one.
Like it?
I have more I’ll show you later…
Sleep tight!
SarahsD has DOORS UP!
On of my honorary Aunts has come to Xanga… by honorary, I mean I got to pick her and it is an honor for me to have her… I am not so sure she would feel the same!

Anyway, please go welcome her to Xanga!
As for me and what I am doing… see yesterday’s post… during the summer it is pretty much all the same, well, sometimes the castle is better.
