Sweet Land of Liberty.....



I went to Liberty Park on Thursday with my niece and nephew. I forget how huge and beautiful this place really is. The kids had fun playing in the water park area as well as swinging in the swings and sliding down the slides. I love being able to spend time with my niece and nephew. I will be sad once she starts school again, she is such a big help!!

BREAKING DAWN














Yes, the day, or I should say night, had finally arrived! The book, I have been waiting months for, (grant it my wait time has been shorter than others) IS HERE! After a fun night of book shopping (Tracie and I came across some pretty interesting reads), people watching, teenage dodging, pancake eating, standing in line for someone to bark at us for not being in line, getting the book, stopping for some caffiene, driving home and reading it until 4 am. Yes, AM. To wake up around 9:30 and start reading again. I haven't finished as of yet. The book, so far, is really good and very suprising in some areas. I will not post anything about it so I don't ruin or spoil the book for those who haven't read it yet. But I will post pictures from that night. Thanks girls! It was a fun night!!

Strange things are afoot at your local DI


Ok have to share this.. My friend's husband had to drop some things off at the DI. He ran into the lounge room apparently.
I personally love the guy who has his shoes off and making himself at home. Heaven for bid we leave shoe marks on the furniture.
