Lazy What? Lazy Me! oh I mean Lazy F!

I’ve got about a ton and a half of pictures I’d like to post, but right now I’m on my break at work and all of my Lazy-F photos are at home on my desktop. What a weekend! I can’t say that I’ve ever had as much fun at Lazy-F as I did this weekend. It’s the best retreat all year and yet these kids somehow made it better than before! I am completely exhausted; it was hard to get moving this morning. My whole body was stiff and unwilling to be up and moving at 5 am. All I have to say is THANK GOD I get a massage this week (Alleluia)!

I think I’ll save the stories and post them along with the photos, You just don’t get the full effect without the photos. The only thing I don’t have photos of right now is the rafting trip I (thankfully) survived the rafting trip & took a disposable camera (again thankfully) that was waterproof, and hope to get it developed this week. The rafting trip was an adventure and a half – more later

Either way, I’m home, happy, healthy and closer to GOD, that is the point of the trip – to come home better than when we left!

Happy Tuesday to all!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
