Best Decision Ever

One of the best decisions I have ever made has been to not fight the boys getting a small pet.  Mia & Shelby are the best!!! I never thought I would love having pigs so much.  They are adorable.  My husband and I actually call them our grand guineas.  So silly, never (ever) thought that would be me!!!!  But look at Mia, she is so cute....



And Shelby is so plump and adorable.  Love them pigs, I really do.

I have started doing pages for ebay again.  It is not nearly as profitable for me as it is for some people, but it helps with extras.  And I love making pages.  Here are a couple that I managed to put the sold sign on. 





This is just a random shot that A took on her phone of us.  We were at my youngest daughters pagent a couple of years back.  The guy in the background is laughing bc he was making faces as we were taking photos.  He was in all of the shots and we didn't even realize it until he started laughing like crazy.  It was hilarious!  And I love the pic of the 3 of us. 


I was digging around in my garage and came across a box of books.  Old books that I have had for a long time.  I dug this one out and started reading it.  I haven't been able to put it down.  I don't even like her but I remember the tv series from way long ago.  I don't know if anyone else does this, but whenever I come across certain scenes that I remember from the show, I can see the characters acting them out as I read.  It is so cool.  When I (finally) read the Harry Potter series, I found myself doing the same thing.  And I found out that my favorite author is going to release a new book in my all time favorite series next year.  Finally.   So to make a too long paragrapher longer, this book is extra readable.  Even if you find Nora Roberts boring (like I do).


Well off to home educate the one in the middle and to do my homework.  Thanks for stopping by and have A GREAT Day!

Thank you Kathlene! I did the same at your blog and your Maltese gave me a serious case of puppy envy. I put the quote up with every intention of changing it every month but I love it so much that it has been there for about a year and a half.

Thank you so much Jen! Every little thing our g-pigs do makes us happy. Ours purr like kittens when you hold them and the popcorning is hilarious bc Mia & Shelby are so chunky.
