Windows

I love windows.

There have been times in my life that I have talked probably to much about how much I am fond of windows.  How could you not be fond of them!!? You can see the beautiful world that God so kindly has allowed us to live on. (I love it)  Often when I begin to speak of how when I have my own house I would prefer to have gigantic windows and lots of them I am met with warnings about the effort that you have to put into cleaning them.

WELP!

Today I had the chance to clean giant windows.

I LIKE IT.

The whole time I pretended that I was the karate kid learning how to do super sweet karate moves.
It also feels great to see a perfectly clean window.

BAM. bring it on beautiful gigantic window













Windows:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Dinner

Soon I will be moving across the country to good ol NC! I know I am going to have SO MUCH fun.  But I can't help be a little bit sad.  My little brothers make me laugh my face off, and it's always sad to leave your best friends (my brothers).  JEEZE THE WHEEZE! they are neat!

This is how our dinner conversation went tonight...(If you want to hold on to any belief that my family is normal don't read it)

warning: slightly inappropriate

Tomorrow is Jacops birthday.  He will be out of the single digit numbers and be the big 1-0 (10) so!

Mom
"I like this new dress a lot but the only thing is it rides up when I sit down
Dad
"Oh I thought you were just doing that for me"

Me
"Jake are you excited to recieve 10 birthday spankings?"
Jake
"Why would I want spankings on my birthday?"
Me
"Its what happens on your birthday people spank you for however old you are"
Jake
"If you spank me I will spank you in your sleep!...and that hurts!...so don't!"
Me
"Jake it's really not that bad, on my birthday maybe CM (You know who you are) will spank me ;)"
Mom
gag reflex
Jake
"GROSS!!!!!"

disclaimer: I really was just kidding!

and then naturally we moved on to conversation about death...

Me
"Mom do you remember what I want my tombstone to look like?"
Jacop
"!!!!!!!!I KNOW! glow in the dark!!!"
Mom
"When your father and I die we want to be buried one on top of the other, make sure I am face down with my hand in a fist with my thumb out pointing down....I always want my thumb on him"

(just saying but they have many jokes about this...You can only imagine)


Daniel
"I heard about this new thing that they can do in place of cremation,  They inject you with this acid that eats you from the inside out and just disintegrates you..."

Thats when all of a sudden the steak I was eating stopped tasting good and I also tuned out trying to force my mind away from embalming people with acid that eats away at them...

We then had a very nice family birthday cake in the shape of a fish.  It took a few times of lighting the candles since my Dad likes to blow them out as many times as possible to push Mama Ps buttons.

OH! and!
I don't think I realized until recently that usually people don't reuse birthday candles.  When I was little I always had used ones because my brothers birthday is the day before mine.  Who knew?

I love this home.  I love these people.  I feel happy as a clam that they are mine.

Run hard or run home

I discovered that I am in far worse shape than I was a year ago.

after my run tonight I decided to do some sprints...holy guacamole
push-ups anyone? ...yikes

Ill get back to you on any improvement in the next few weeks...

I looked in my fridge this evening and saw this

My first thought was
who puked and put it in the fridge...
after vocalizing the question "what is that substance?"
Jacob, my 9 year old brother said 
"Liz, that is grape juice mixed with orange juice...duh" 
right, I should have known what in the world was I thinking...
pahaha I love that boy.


Day 29: A picture of something that will always make me smile

This picture represents a lot of old memories.  All of them make me grin :)

Blast from the past

Today I was thinking about Little Beth (thats me)

I like her



Enlarge this picture and then look at every single persons face
paha
(I am still friends with most of these kids, our faces then still reflect our personalities now)

Aaron still wears that face when he is giving me "instruction" on my life

This is only the beginning

.....we are special.
