Our self-portrait for the day.
Eva was napping when we arrived, so Whitney just got busy playing all by herself (she is so good at that).
Michelle made these marvelous, pork quesadillas for lunch.
Then she worked on packaging more of her brilliant Paris Colors Card Sets.
Max played a computer game for some of the time, and sat in this position...can you imagine being able to do that comfortably?
Lori kept texting me to see about doing something later that night, so I texted her back a few times then finally just called her. I get so frustrated with the slowness of texting that I usually end up calling instead.
I had the kids write in a thank you note for my mom. I love that they don't hesitate or need any help with writing thank you notes now, they just get right down to business.
This is cute right?
Max, Lucas, Landon and Lucas' friend Benji ended up playing a computer game together in this position. What the? I can't imagine it being fun unless I was the one in the chair.
This was my output for the day, not too shabby eh? I had more to do than usual because we'd missed the week before.
**Do you enjoy quesadillas?
Do you love Michelle's Paris card sets?
Could you sit in that position?
Are you a fast texter?**

Comment Window Tidbit: The high today is 84 degrees which means the windows are open and the morning breeze has been cool and delicious. I love it!

I am one slow texter.
I could not sit in that position long. I need air.
I love Michelle's card sets.
I love quesadillas, too, but not as much as Michelle's card sets.
Landon's note is cute-- "sorry if I was ever a pest" made me laugh!
Oh how I wish Luci would entertain herself as Whitney does.
I generally send/receive a couple hundred texts a day (I know, I know) so I am quite fast. Many of them are work related. Texting on a Balckberry is super fast. Kim swears by her iphone but whenever I try hers out for texting it slows me down and the tiny "buttons" on the screen cause
me to make way too many typos.
Michelle's photo crads are to die for and I feel lucky to have a set. I could never sit like that now and am always amazed at how kids can do that for hours.
Speaking of typos, I meant "Blackberry" or "Crackberry" as I usually refer to it.
I find it hilarious that we went to the balloon festival and then had naps, got ready, and got together again.
I can't imagine sitting like Max. It's hard enough just painting my toes!
Love the picture of you texting. I'm a super-slow texter, even with the tiny keyboard on my phone.
I love the way your kids are so used to writing thank you notes, and the drawings are an added bonus.
It was nice the way the kids all played together, that adds greatly to my productivity! See you for C.F. next week...
I love quesadillas!
I think Michelle's Paris card sets are gorgeous (my birthday is in Sept...hint hint/Ha!)
I could sit in that position but it certainly would put me FAR away from the computer screen!
I'm a fast texter. It does help that I have a phone with a great keypad, just like a typewriter.
I love quesadillas- LOVE them!
I didn't want to learn to text, avoided it until my MIL's doctor told us how important it is to learn new things & keep your mind open. So- I learned to text. I am fast at it now & do it all the time. it is a GREAt way to communicate with my kids- that's almost all the do, ya know?!
I do LOVe michelle's card- that girl has skills! mad wonderful skills!!
I am so happy you are getting the chance to meet regularly for Creative days in the summer :)
That is a great SPT--very pretty of both of you. I am the same way with texting--I always just prefer to call! You can pat yourself on the back for raising a daughter who knows how to entertain herself. That is such a valuable lifeskill (and lifesaver for the mom!). Glad you had another legitimate Creative Friday!
Yum quesadillas!
I do love Michelle's Paris card sets - they just make me smile every time I see them!
I have always sat in awkward positions but Max's position is far beyond awkward it just looks painful.
Yes, I love quesadillas, yes I love Michelle's cards and no to the rest.
I am with you, I would prefer to call and talk it out instead of texting, but it is fun to get some random text from someone.
I could literally eat Mexican every day. I love it that much.
did i tell you i think there is a cafe rio here. i am going to search tomorrow for it.
i love quesadillas
did you say to her in your best Napoleon voice "just make me a Dang quesadilla?"
I will have to try adding pork to my quesadillas! yum! And, no...I am a slow texter....I still have a dinosaur age cell phone!
Why aren't all of your comments showing? Interesting...
Anywho, I am in love with pretty much everything Michelle makes. I have children who sit in weird positions that I can't even think of sitting in. I have texted maybe 3 times in my whole life...I think I must be extremely odd!
Love that your kids are so good about writing thank you cards.
I assume I'm getting to the balloon post as I work to catch up- I'm anxious to read about because I heard winds made Fri. and Sat. rough ballooning days.
I don't know how productive I could have been with all those kids, especially right next to the work space crowded around the computer like that- good grief. (And never was a limber enough to sit like that for any period of time!)
I know people find text messaging to be convenient, but when I could use it, I was like you and just ended up calling the person. Cool new phone though. I think that makes me officially the last dinosaur!
jolines! i love those quesadillas!!!!
i am so not a texter. it BUGS the crap out of me! my fingers don't move that fast on a tiny keyboard!
You know, most days I would be happy just eating a quesadilla for dinner...
Oh, I prefer texting, but that's just because I hate, hate, hate talking on the phone.
Getting up super early is a pain, but when you get to go back to sleep for a short time and wake up again, it's almost like you've got a second day to enjoy! And I always feel more energized and productive when I take a mid-morning or early afternoon nap. Why can't we embrace these as a society?!
I think it was 84 degrees at 11 pm last night...
