While you're waiting...

...for me to get my act together and finish editing vacation photos and all, allow me to share with you a few random things:

- The other day Micah randomly asked me "how many more days until the early future?" How does one answer that? Seriously. Where does the kid get these things? ;) Acting on experience, I turned to his brothers and asked them. Asher's surprisingly prompt reply? "More than 743 and less than 2532." I'm glad someone knew. (This, btw, seemed to satisfy Micah perfectly.)

- Today, then, the boy turned to me and said, "I wonder if the sun is a boy or a girl." I asked him what he thought (always a good route to go when he starts down these paths). He said, "I think a boy." Obviously, I then asked why. "Because boys, hmmm...and girls that you love...keep you alive...just like the sun." Strange but true, folks. I love the part about "girls that you love"...apparently other girls don't count. ;)

- If anyone can explain to me why today's high was in the high 60s and tomorrow's high is supposed to be about freezing, please do. And if we get the 6-12 inches of snow that's reported, I'd like to formally request that that be the end of that until soccer season is over. So there.

- Soccer season starts next week. Really.

- I *think* I may have finally made up my mind about bedding for the guest room in the basement. I know you were all anxiously awaiting that, LOL! 

Okay, that's enough for now. :)

Home again.

Whew. So. I've been on vacation. Did you know? ;) We road-tripped it to Legoland in San Diego...altogether were gone about 11 days. So. I'm catching up. Hang tight and I promise lovely stories of our travels and pictures aplenty...but first I really must go finish some laundry. ;)

The end.

Whew. Thanks for hanging with me as I finally finish these Lists of Me album layouts. I thought, momentarily, about tackling this project again for 2010 but opted to take a break. It's such a fun format, though, that I'll likely do it again! 

In any case, here are the final five layouts:

 (This one was for my dad's birthday.)

(Totally inspired by Cathy Z, folks!)

And that's all. :) Thanks!

The home stretch...

Almost to the end of 2009 with my lists now...

(Sorry, I blurred the actual addresses on this one...)

(This is one that actually got completed out of order and has been shared here already...used the awesome Paper Posies kit back in November for this one.)

And that, my friends, brings us *almost* to the end of this 52 layout album...:)

And yet more Lists of Me...

Are you bored yet? ;)

I think this last one is one of my favorites, simply because it was so fun thinking up super powers that I'd like...;) What super powers do *you* wish you had? Really. I'd love to know!

(I'll give you a break over the weekend and be back to finish up the year at the start of next week...)
