Miscellaneous Monday


1. Way back on Friday the 14th Michelle brought Cafe Rio and we had a marvelous car lunch. We see each other so rarely these days that we had to cram a lot of talking into the 30 minutes!


Oh glorious Cafe Rio goodness!


2. Whitney and Madison found out they both didn't win the student council election (12 kids won out of 37). They took their defeat gracefully and I took them to Sonic for Happy Hour slushies.


3. Landon's football team all decided to dress up last Tuesday in honor of their Tuesday Night Lights game. I happened to see him walk past the office in-between classes and snagged this photo of him in his new red shirt.


4. We helped Lori move into her new Townhouse over the weekend and then went over yesterday to try out the "girl cave". She has a big room with a ginormous tv and sectional where we could all lie down and watch "Mall Cop" together. We'll probably be visiting her often in her new place.


5. This display currently resides on our dining room table, just a couple of dinosaurs out on the town.


6. Landon had a morning game on Saturday.


Whitney had been wandering around with my camera and took this photo of me fixing Landon's shirt at half-time.


6. This is the very pleasing inside papers of next' month's book club book...I like it already!

Happy Hour slushies is a very fine consolation prize.

What a fun thing to be at Landon's school. I'm glad you're both enjoying it.

The dining dinosaurs was fun to see. I'm going to be sad when she outgrows these things.

Lunch with Michelle. Now that is a great break.

I love that Michelle cOmes and enjoys lunch with you (in the car) :0)

That's a great way to spend a quick lunch.

Glad Whiteny was a good sport. Luci ran for student council in 3rd grade and didn't get it but they let her be an alternate (which meant nothing really) ...she never realized that meant she lost but I know that now, 3 years later, she sure would.

How fun to see Landon at school. I love my job but would love it more if our church or school would hire me so I could see my kids on occasion throughout the day.

Oh and the dinosaurs! The dinosaurs!! That could be a post in itself.

And where is your Sunday Thoughts post? I don't usually comment on those but I DO read them and enjoy them!

It's kind of nice that Whitney and Madison both lost, isn't it? Not that I wanted them to lose, of course, but it would be worse if only one of them did.

I just love the dinosaurs out on the town.

Cool photo of you with Landon!

That picture of the book club book sealed the deal - I have to have the hard copy now.

It's so nice you do occasionally get to have a real lunch in the midst of school craziness--and Cafe Rio with Michelle sounds like the best treat.

It's so nice the team dresses up on game days--not sure that's as common as it used to be and it's really nice. How fun to catch a glimpse of Landon in the halls!

Love Whitney's dino dinner for two--and that she handle her defeat so well. Slushies are the perfect pick-me up I'm sure.

I must know what you're reading--that looks like my kind of book. :)

I'm sorry to hear Whitney didn't win student council! I lost multiple elections in high school and the worst part about it was always telling my mom bc I knew she would feel so bad for me. I'm glad she took it well!

That Cafe Rio looks soooo good. I'm glad you and Michelle got that time together!

Lunch dates even if they are quick are still nice to have.

I love watching football.

Good for Whitney and her friend and their good attitudes! Landon looks so grown up and so handsome! And that Cafe Rio makes my mouth water!
