Well, I had hoped to start today on a funny note. I am having an Hawaiian-themed party for my husband's birthday on Sunday afternoon. His birthday is actually next Wednesday, but Sunday worked better for a party. The funny thing for today is that I found a really funny candle for his cake. It is of a frumpy overweight man in an Hawaiian shirt and shorts looking like a beach comber. I couldn't resist although it cost more than the average cake candle. I shall add the number 55 with number candles as well. I plan to make the cake look like a beach and island...hopefully it will come out cute.
On a not-so-funny note, my husband did not make it to work in his car this AM. The good news is that it was not because of an accident. It sort of blew up. It is officially beyond repair now and not worth the trouble. But we are maxed out on our budget and have no room for a car payment. This is quite a dilemna! But we will find a way. We always do. I have been given 3 cars in my life and 2 of them were really pretty good cars. But we do not expect a free car to come into the horizon. However, we would not turn one down if it did!
The rain left LOTS of puddles and imitation "lakes". Before 8:30 AM today, I find Handsome and Jomo missing in action. Upon investigation, I discover that they are in the back yard "fishing" in the "lake". They managed to get Jomo's shoes soaked and retrieve a golf ball from the puddle. Handsome was barefooted and in his jammies with the blue golf ball in his hand. What a day this should be!
Baby Girl is in her "princess" mode, expecting everyone to cater to her desires. She puts on such a smile and cute antics that it is difficult not to respond to her wiles. I confess, I do a lot of the time. But, she is learning that she is not quite the Queen Bee just yet...although that is probably not far off!
I shall download a picture of her first "time out" a bit later. It is still in my camera. I hope you enjoy the pictures I post. I really wouldn't mind some comments back...get the hint?
