no pics, but updates anywho

Okay, so I'm still slow on the pictures. Our camera is just catching much these days, due to me misplacing it for a while.... But its back in action, only to have misplaced the card reader, AGAIN.

Anyhow...lovely day!
We are SO loving our Saturdays...just us, family, hanging out!

We all slept in (praise God) and then headed out to hit a garage sale or two, for no apparent reason. Cam scored some great Cincinnati Reds Jerseys for CHEAP and was thrilled!

Then off to a school playground to run, climb, laugh and swing
Stopped by a friends house
Home to watch the TREE (so dead) felled in the front yard! WAY COOL! We had a blast helping clean it up and watching the stump grinder in action.

To top it off: hotdogs over the open flame on the deck~

Wonderful day, and Emmy enjoyed the entire day in her cat costume. Oh, that girl. :)

BOOK REVIEW ALERT...Saturdays With Stella

SATURDAYS WITH STELLA
BY: Allison Pittman

Okay, if you are a dog LOVER, this one is yours.

Its a cute book that connects dog ownership and lessons learned to our relationship with God. The caption on the cover says, "how I learned to sit, stay and come when God calls" and that pretty well sums up the book.

Its written in a very entertaining way, but really relates well to a pet owner (which I'm not)...so its not going to get the, "I was enraptured" review from me. However, I did glean a lot from it. It breaks down some things in our relationship to God into the simplest: offer a gift from your heart. It doesn't matter WHAT you're bringing God as long as its from your heart.

There are many other little tid bits ...I'd highly recommend this to a pet owner for a devotion book. Its easy to pick up and put down and you still get something out of it each time!

Comment to have me give it to you...

Crackin' up

Sis was talking to Daddy on the phone:

Daddy: Whatcha doin'?

Sis: Ummm, just hangin' out right now.
