The Green Giant

Hello again! 

I'm afraid I've been feeling a bit guilty lately about my lack of posts, so you may go on overload here soon. :) Regardless, here are a few fun photos I took tonight...just before those darn camera batteries gave out...again. 

Our jolly green giant eating his favorite meal of choice:

green beans

Not only has he been snarfing down the beans, but we've discovered he definitely likes cake and pizza. (Don't ask us how we figured that one out :)

When faced with a camera, our beautiful little girl turns comedian - in case you haven't noticed!

Inevitably, Clayton has to be up where the action is...which usually puts him right next to his sister.

This is a very typical "pose". Clayton crawling over top his sister to get where he's going. Follow Gracelynn with a whiny description of whatever body part he smashed. "Owwwey, my neck hurts..." etc. 

Little tough guy these days. :)

Another squabble over who is in control of the hammer...

And Heath and I were finally able to call it a night! 

Whew....

Fun thing happened today - 

so while I was out taking some much needed alone time (which meant a visit to Subway for a Dt. Coke and a cookie), I came across 6 huge flats of annual flowers with a sign that read "Free Annuals". I didn't even believe it, so I went inside and turns out, the floral shop didn't want to take care of them anymore so they wanted to get rid of them!

Lol - quick as a wink, I called a friend (after I'd removed the free sign) and we loaded up the flowers and brought them home. The kids and I spent the rest of the afternoon potting flowers!

Okay, maybe Clayton played in the dirt, Gracelynn organized the flowers - "I help Mommy" - and I got to pot all afternoon.

Several hours later, I now have two hanging baskets, two huge tubs along our walkway, FIVE pots filled with flowers...and a really big mess to clean up tomorrow. :)

Ah well. Who cares about the mess. The flowers totally made my day!
