Got the giggles?

My friend and I were having a project day over the weekend. We actually got stuff done. Sometimes we just humor ourselves and nothing gets done but watching a few movies.

We went out for reinforcements i.e. more crafts supplies and some food from Sonic. I don't think I have laughed that hard in a long time! How come you can't ever understand the people at the drive-thru? I was trying to understand the dude. My friend has already told me that I have my "ordering voice" so I am wondering about that. Then while I am waiting for the dude to come back and take our order, this dog yips. I am embarrassed to admit it that it scared me! I jumped, Jennifer started laughing. I started laughing. Of course, then the dude comes back at that time. I could barely speak I was laughing so hard. I did not know if I was going to recover by the time we got to the window. It took awhile but I made it! We both recovered but I could not look at her because I thought I was going to start all over again.

We got back and finished our projects. Jennifer made way cute canvases for her craft room and I made invitations for my sister's baby shower.

Here is a quote that goes with the day: "Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can." -Danny Kaye

I have people

Friends are the family you choose for yourself.
I am not sure who said that right now, but it is so true!

A friend of mine is so great. Her family is great, too! They just accept me and treat me like a member of the family. That means a lot to me. Family is so important to me, so sometimes it can be hard not living close to my own family. It helps to have people.

I am a softy but the other day one of the nieces told me that she loved me. It made me think... It means something to me. What a sweet child! And I get to spend some time with her even if I am just borrowing the time with her through my friend.

a boy on the way

My sister had her ultrasound! A little boy is going to join our family. I am excited. It sounds like his name will be Remington. My mom says Billy Bob. She is joking. I can't wait to meet him. Now I know what to shop for. I am going to have fun!
