Random Tidbits....(Warning: not funny)

Cam's first day of school was on Monday. He had a great day. The second day?? Not so much. "There was a lot of homework."


Brandon found a steal of a deal on a porch swing he had been eyeing all summer. He installed it yesterday, and it is NIIIIICE.
(Never you mind that Foosball table by the door.)

Yesterday was also Brandon's Grandma Charlene's 76th birthday. We went up to Ogden to go to Chili's with her and Grandpa. The phrase on this plaque only makes sense for her. She can never tell you a recipe..."I don't know, I just made it up," she'll say.


Here is the world's worst group photo of us after dinner. (Eamon needs smile lessons or something, he does this every time.)

And Brandon let the remaining puppies roam around the kitchen this morning. Here they are taking a much needed nap at my feet.

Cameron looks so handsome on his First day of school! I think he's looking more and more like Brandon. Is Eamon in pre-school/kindergarden or anything yet?

I hope that someday I can cook something without following a recipe - that day seems very far off right now. I'm crazy about following directions. It's weird, I know.

It seems early for school to be starting already... maybe because it's still 105 degrees outside here. Cameron looks super cute, I mean that in a very non-girlish way. Also, I so want one of your puppies!

I love the porch swing. Can Brandon teach Dan how to do 'man stuff' around the house? I can't imagine how nice that would be if he could actually fix and install things..you're lucky.

I swear the puppies have doubled in size since I saw them last week!!!

Same with Cameron. Who said he could grow up so much this summer?

McMommy said...

Are you kidding me??! Those are those puppies you birthed? Well, not you technically...

by the way, love your porch swing! I swear my favorite part of a house is the front porch. especially if it has a swing.

Your puppies are so sweet. I want to squeeze them also, I do not know what it is about small defenseless things and why always want to squeeze them but I do .

Tell Mary she cannot take Carl. I want him!

Mary said...

Wahahahaha sorry Ang, we've taken Carl home, but I will give him up on ransom for 12 million pounds of chocolate.

Oh my gosh, can you say mini Brandon?!?!?! He looks just like Brandon. Are you selling all of your puppies?? You asked about Roxy-we still have her. She is the best little dog. She is getting old-poor girl!
PS I love the porch swing.

Autumn said...

Down with homework! Haha. Those puppies are so cute! <3, Autumn
PS: Yay for future posts...:)

Autumn said...

Also I am jealous of your fabulous porch swing!

Robere said...

Sorry for all those who say Cam's looking like Brandon - I totally think he's channeling the Wright blood a la Dan in that closeup.
