Do You Smell It?


Photo-A-Day #3200

The Modibot makes another return to the blog. On weekends I get no time to get out and take photos so I take them of my toys on my work desk. For some reason this image of the purple Modibot made me think about when I used to watch WWE and The Rock was a big deal on the show. He had this tag line of “Can you Smell…. What The Rock is Cooking?” It was ridiculous but also funny. The Rock would cock his head tot he side, raise one eyebrow, lean back with the microphone and deliver his signature line. Then he would decimate his opponent. So that is what I thought of when I saw this image.

Happy Birthday Allison 2014


Photo-A-Day #3199

We had a very nice day celebrating Allison’s birthday. Eva and I picked up some gifts for Allison yesterday and Eva had some elaborate scheme that she wanted to hatch for Allison. Eva had me cut up cucumbers, get lotion and help her with some pampering for Allison. We hung up stars and got out the very special necklace for Allison (it was blue and shaped like an ice cream cone which lit up, great $2 find at Target).

Eva’s plan was so cute. She rubbed a little lotion on Allison’s hands and then put the cucumber slices on her eyes. We gave her her gifts and then got Eva to school.

Today we also got to clear out a ton of baby clothes for girls. My sisters came over and took bag after bag to my Mom’s house to sort for friends who are having babies and to keep some things for themselves including toys and books for my nephew. Our basement is a little less cluttered now. Time to get the rest of it organized. Time to look for shelves so we can start keeping staples.

Tonight we went to our favorite place to celebrate, House of Fortune. We had a great meal there and topped it with a Red Velvet Confusion cupcake from Northworks.
