A Dandy Flag Day!!!

First off...

Here I am!!

I am feeling kind-of spy-ish.

You know kinda OO7 like.

I am here at Starbucks taking advantage of theses last 15 minutes of their WI-FI.

Just like all those spys in the movies do.

It feels much different than using the WI-FI at McDonald's.

Maybe a little more classy?

But on to my day...or my spy cover.

Thanks to Josh, we got the flag out today.

I could not find the real flag pole so a tree branch had to do.

That is ok Flag edict isn't it?



Josh painted our porch swing last week.

It looks great!



I needed a make-shift repair to our front screen door.

I think this will do well once I paint it.

I hope so.

Just do not laugh SO hard when you come visit.

It might hurt my feelings...

I am kind of sensitive like that...

At Micky D's!!!!

It has been a bit!!!!!!

We have been having Internet troubles the last few weeks.

~Sigh~

Since there seems to be a lack of a good solution for our home internet in the near future I thought I would just bring my laptop to McDonald's!

So here I sit with my coffee

and

Hurrah!!!!

I am blogging again!!!

I think this is rather a good short term solution just as long as I stick with the coffee only.

One mistake I did though was not edit my blog pictures at home BEFORE I came to McDonald's.

I used up most of my laptop battery editing my pictures...

I know for next time.

Life,as you all know, keeps happening even if it is not blogged about so I have much to talk about.

But for tonight I will chat about my day and I can not forget pictures, of course.

Today's highlights:

Grant and I walked into town to apply for his passport. He is going to Africa in the late fall on a mission trip.

Grant and I then stopped at the coffee shop.

Our older children who are a part of the HeavenWord Handlers performance team spent the day at an FCA camp in Fairbault teaching the camp kids different basketball handling tricks.

I fell asleep on the couch.

I thought a lot.

Pondered things.

My Pooh brain was quite active.

I have been thinking about how life always seems to change.

I wish things would stay still for a bit so I could catch my breath.

But it does not.

Hmmm...

AND

I took some fun pictures!

I can Only Say...

Yummmmmmmm!!!



Warmly,A Dragonfrye Mom

P.S. It is french toast with cherry pie filling and powdered sugar on top.

Just in case you are politely wondering to yourself what is on the plate.

My cooking usually is pretty unidentifiable.

I like it that way.

It keeps an element of suprise and mystery alive at the meal table!

P.S.S. Thanks Cathy!!!!!!!

At The Sewing Table

I thought I would work on a little sewing this weekend.

I think that these two combos would make fun skirts.

I will see how much I actually get done between tomorrow and Monday.

I tend to over estimate the amount of free time I have.

and I am feeling very feverish. Not good.




I will try out this skirt pattern.



which is from this book.

I LOVE this book!!

A Few More Weekend Pictures

You have seen enough picture highlights of my past weekend but what's a few more?

Right?

Well, 'cause those Frye kids are just SO darn cute anyway.

That's what you are thinking.

I know it is.

Ha.

We SO think alike!!!

Maybe we are twins separated at birth?!

Maybe.

Lily (4)



Joel and Grace (both 7)

An Early Monday Morning Date With

My sweet hubby!!!

A stop Hyvee and then The Daily Grind.



Jeff taking a moment to smell the flowers.

He is sensitive like that, you know.



Jeff, I do not think this is help yourself...



A moment of reflection.

Hmm...It seems like the city of Waseca forgot about this little gem.



Ok...Jeff...



"Ohh...Tina!

Look!!

This is my lucky day!!

I found a toy!!!

Now I know what I am doing at lunch!

SWEET!!!"



Jeff, you will really need to wait and get a drink at home.



J-walking is kind of like living on the edge




"Ooh...

The cannon...

Tina,keep your eyes peeled for troublemakers."



"Let's see...

Spong

Ram

In battery

Point

then

FIRE!!

FIRE!!!

FIRE!!!!"



"Why isn't this thing working.

Something must be stuck.

I will just take a quick peek..."



Jeff debating his need for a quick shower before work...



Our carriage awaits.

Awwh...

~Sad~

Over way too soon.



I love you Jeff!

Thanks for the date!!
