we had a rainy rainy weekend over here.
annie saw our neighbors playing in the puddles and asked to join them. :)
oh they had so much fun getting soaked.
there was more volleyball, soccer and football this weekend too.
i was planning on going to sean's football game but it was raining.
i just dropped him off at the field and said
"honey…i love you but i can't sit in the rain and watch football….because…. i am a girl."
craig went.
but i did not.
i like this gum.
a lot.
it was on sale at our grocery store….so i just bought it all.
because it's the thing i have to have to feel ready to go somewhere…..
i think " keys? check. coffee? check. gum? what no gum? oh no. oh no. oh no."
also deoderant.
i am a total spaz about smells.
always paranoid about B.O.
i have deodorant in my purse.
weeeeeeeeeirdo.
………………………………………..
umm….i started the Jenny Craig program….for reals.
come over here and read about it. :)
Lisa Currie-Gurney - JUST GOT TO READING THIS POST.
THAT IS MY FAVORITE GUM, AND I AM SO FUSSY ABOUT SMELLING NICE ALL THE TIME.
CHECK WITH YOUR MOM. WE MIGHT BE TWINS SEPARATED AT BIRTH. 🙂
HUGS FROM MY HEART
April R - The puddle pictures were so awesome made me wish it would rain!
(I have deodorant and gum for on the go as well)
Jenny - I have deoderant in my purse too! and my desk drawer! You just never know.
kristin - oh, sweet annie. she looks more and more like talby all the time!!
Mel - LOLs Meg…you are such a funny lady 🙂
Wendy Hagen - Great pics! And glad your breath always has the opportunity for freshness.
crystal buetler - You are getting the most fabulous shots!!!! Love all of these, especially the rain photos. Glad to know someone else is a freak about certain things. Mine is Carmex. I buy tons of it, and can’t leave home without it. 🙂
Carla V. - Great picks of playing in the rain. I’m also weird about B.O. and other smells. Especially in my home. I also cary deodorant because living in AZ, you always need it. Thanks for sharing those lovely family photos.
Hannah - These photos are LOVELY!
And I’m a freak about BO, too…like unnecessarily paranoid. And when I read that you kept it in your purse my first thought was: “Good idea!”
Sarah @ Handbags*N*Pigtails - Is that the gum with the “juice” inside? if so, I love that stuff! And Im the exact same way-deodrant and gum all the way. In fact, Ive carried my toothbrush and travel sized paste around with me before. Theres just nothing worse than bad body stink. 🙂
Tracy Fisher - Looks like you live in WA state..haha. Love the rain for about 1 week (to water my lawn and watch the kids play in it), then it gets old. Cute photos. One day I want you to photograph my kids. You seem to bring out their personalities unlike me as their mom yelling “come on.. smile at the camera..just one more time.. i promise… come on… do it now… now i’m getting mad…”. haha

Teresa Marie - I have a friend who keeps deodorant in her purse, I keep it in the glove compartment of my car.
I love the line you said to your son, that’s totally going to be me when my boys get bigger. Sorry, I can’t I’m a girl.
Michelle - That is Ramona Quimby FOR SURE in the top photo!!
Kirtley Adams - I love the pictures! We just moved to Kanas this weekend while it was raining.
Kerry - wahahha! love how you just bought it all … i do that. if I’m shopping and I’m cold, I just go buy a jacket. pfffttt!
love the pics of laurens volleyball. awesome-o. xx
Valerie @ Chateau A la Mode - I’m a freak when it comes to smells too, especially how I smell 🙂 I have to say, never heard of anyone keeping deoderant in their purse….hmmmmm!!!! I might have to try that!
amber - I have a friend who can’t leave the house without her toothbrush & toothpaste. Makes me laugh:). Also, the pics of Annie are so fun, & Lauren looks like a serious volleyball player. Awesome.
kelly - Kids and puddles…it’s a magnetic force.
Heather G. - Those puddle-jumping pictures are amazing! And I’ve never seen that gum before – now I’ll be on the hunt for it. Best of luck with Jenny Craig!
stephanie - I carry deodorant in my purse too! 😛
Kristin S - My fave gum too!
Lori Austin - Gum is a must!
Fun puddle pics.
Good luck with Jenny. So wish that weight wasn’t an issue all the time, but it sure is. I’ve lost some this year, but not nearly what I was hoping for. I keep trying, doing my best….that’s I can do. I mentioned in the other comments that my BIG hangup is emotional eating. BIG problem! Can’t wait to read about your journey. I’ll keep trying right along with you 🙂
Andrea@KnittyBitties - I feel the oh.no oh.no oh.no when I don’t have a drink with me. Not like a hard drink, LOL, but my iced tea or water when I go to jump in the car.
And my sister carries deodorant in her purse too ;). Looks like you’re pretty normal!
Happy Day!
mary - That is not weird about the deodorant. I do it too. Except mine usually ends up falling out of my purse and onto the floor in my car and then melting because I live in Texas. So I am always buying deodorant. I wish more people did it too!
Emily - I also have deodorant in my purse. And in my desk at work. Deson’t everyone? Ha!
Heather - Stinker – you got all the rain they kept promising us in Topeka that NEVER showed. Poo! We REALLY need it!
Susan - I absolutely can’t function without my gum. Deoderant in your purse? You are a genius!
CathyC - I have deodorant in my bag too!!!! HA! and I can not live without Chapstick. So basically, if I was stranded on an island, 2 of my must have items would be deodorant and Chapstick.
happygirl - I love the way you catch the water droplets as they fly in the air. Ethereal.
Jenna@CallHerHappy - Love the volleyball pics. I just took my baby over to a volleyball game. Totally forgot how loud they are. She FREAKED! Poor baby. My bad.

Tracey - Meg, where do you get your super cute fabric?
Kacey - I love the puddle photos! Makes me want to go jump in one! Every time it rains here in AZ, my kids get excited about jumping in puddles. Sadly, most of the time it “rains” for 5 minutes and then stops, leaving no puddles. Bummer!
Holly - Im the same about diet coke and chap stick. they are my gotta haves but I am working on the diet coke habit…..it could get ugly:)
Terrie G - Love those puddle pictures!! Ahhhh, how I miss Saturday volleyball tournaments!
Totally don’t blame you on not wanting to sit in the rain for the football game, but I did it on Saturday for the KSU game…so worth it since we beat Missouri! HaPpY MoNdAy!!
seriouslysassymama - I loved all the rain this weekend! Splashing in the puddles is a must. My 8 year old is crazy weird about smells. I have to have lipstick before I leave the house. That and mu iPhone. It is like another organ to me.
Good Luck with Jenny Craig
Sandy - Great picture of Lauren hitting the ball over the net. Were you afraid of getting your camera wet taking the pictures of Annie & friends?
Jill Franklin - Love Love Love the puddle pictures! LOVE!
awww shucks! The rain mised us.
gina f. - these are the best pics ever of Annie, and there’s been some good ones!!
Amy Griffin - You take the most amazing pictures. Love Annie in the first picture. Priceless
Jack - Love the photos of the girls splashing in the puddles!
FeFe - I can’t leave the house without lip balm and sunglasses…ever!
Tami - That’s funny about the smells because I am the same way. I keep deodorant in my car in the console. And I always keep some kind of mints and never leave without the mint lip gloss from bath and body.
