Girl's WEEKEND!!!
this weekend was Husband's annual ice fishing derby weekend in the neighboring state. We girls stayed nice and busy and even squeaked a trip into visit him which is UNCHARTED FEMALE TERRITORY... GIRLS DO NOT... I REPEAT DO NOT go on ice fishing weekend....but with Minnie....she pretty much breaks all those kinds of rules with Husband's guy friends... especially when you see what she was WILLING to do in the pictures below...
bear with me as the pictures are a bit out of sort so you'll have to pay attention.... :) starting with Saturday NIGHT :) Minnie and I went to Pheebs house to share pizza with Liz and her Aussie Hubby whom I'd never met before. Fun times ensued after dinner with some Saturday Night Tubby time...
and clean fresh girls on the infamous couch....
I do love Pheebs face here as she looks on with disgust at the girl who appears to be trying to STAND ON THE COUCH!! Doesn't she know better!?!? :)
Minnie cheesin' it up
on Friday we started the night per the norm with FND @ MIL's except that Aunnie LU LU joined us... these pics are just to proove to Brando that MiMi had NOTHING to do with the state in which your soups showed up to you... it was ALL Minnie and here's the proof :)
How can you be mad Brando?? :)
Whoopsie :)
On Saturday we three girls trekked across state lines to visit Daddy. Three days is a long time for a girl who loves her Dad... she sure was excited to see him... and the fact that she got to spend the entire visit outSIDE... even better in her book ~ course...things started RIGHT off with classic "ice fishing" etiquette? They tried to make her kiss a shiner...
she, of course, wanted to EAT the shiner...
helpin' Dad with his traps...
awww...the family love...
speakin' of LOVE...
I'm always so blessed by the time I spend with this girl and when she gives up a weekend to hang out with me, it makes me feel like a million bucks... LOVE her (and yes that IS a tent pitched on the ice behind us... WHAT?)
MORE lovin'... yikes. :)
more of the "crew".....
not a bad view...too bad it was so chilly...
she doesn't seem to mind though... :) what a trooper :)
fun times on a cold winter weekend in Northern New England...
it's just all about the time you spend doing things you enjoy with the people you love and making the best of it...
right Minnie? :) (click on the pic above to enlarge :)

Right Back Atcha Babe!
For My Love on Valentine's Day
I want to love every part of you. I want to curl up next to your voice and marry your smile and run away with you and love your shadowy places. I want to know everything about you- all the untamed emotions, what makes you Happy, what you were like when you were like when you were little. I want to be there with you during the times when you felt most alone, to hold you and kiss your tears and tell you all the kind things you should've been told. I'll whisper every one in your ear until you really believe, and know life is changed for the better every moment you think and fell and breathe in it. I want to fly with you and fall for you and walk with you across the bridges and along the edges, lay my world down right here and now, and live in your eyes forever.
*The words from the very 1st Valentine's Day card Husband gave to me, 10 years ago this year.

day 13 your five favorite books and why
The Bible ~ any question I have I find the answer there, any time I need peace, any time I need love, any time I am sad, happy, content, whatever... I find it there. At the Mom's Bible Study I go to our "mentor mom" said that one of her best friend's has a son who is in the service. There are days when she just walks around her home HOLDING her Bible and what an image that created for me....it is her comfort, her shield, her protection and her everything.
The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks ~ it was an ending I never expected and I LOVED it. That's all I'm going to say about THAT.
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger ~ it was funky, hard to follow and like nothing I'd ever read before. You had to pay attention.
Moments with You by Dennis and Barbara Rainey ~ it is our devotional book every AM. Husband takes a shower, gets dressed, brings up my coffee, sits on the edge of our bed putting on his shoes while I sip my AM Java and we have a quick moment in the Word together every school day. I look forward to it. I like the ease of the devotions and the fact that they are life applicable EVERY day. They are always something that we are either going through or we can see ourselves going through soon.
I couldn't think of another "fav." but my current right now is Bringing Up Girls by Dr. James Dobson. I HATED, (I know that's a strong word) but I HATED this man growing up. CountryMum had his book How to REALLY Love Your Teenager (and the word REALLY was red and italicized) and I thought... "seriously, why am I so hard to love that she needs a BOOK ABOUT IT!?!?" Having my own teenie tiny... I can very well see already why you probably need all the help you can get "dancing through these mine fields" as Andrew Peterson says. :) I'm really enjoying this book. It is pretty "meaty" so it takes quite a bit to get through it and almost every sentence reaffirms that this whole parenting thing... is NOT for weenies.
