Apple Trees and Superheros

You know how much I loathe putting together bulletin boards, BUT it can't be helped.  I have created two so far this year.  First up, I was assigned A Healthy Body.  Gag me.  I hate health.  However, I found an idea online and (with some help from my boss), created this:

My second assignment: Superheros Wanted.  You know I can't draw, but Mr. Hubby can.  So I had a little heart to heart with him and it went like this... "Hey Luis, you like eating right?  Well, if you ever want another meal in this household you better help me draw a hero!"  (Okay, so maybe he was more than happy to help me and I didn't actually have to threaten him, but the point is, he said yes.)

 

Fun With the Mohlmans

Labor Day weekend, Luis & I had a hunkering for some good old beach fun.  We invited anyone to join us, but only one family took us up on the offer:  our very own Mohlmans.  

We headed to Salt Creek Beach, a new one to us, but one I will surely visit again.  The best part?  There is a big parking lot right there, which means we had NO parking spot hunting or constantly feeding the meter!  The worst part?  There is a big hill you have to traverse to get from your car to the beach.  Not bad on the way down.  Much worse on the way up.  

It was nice to escape our 100 degree temps and actually feel chilly.  I was especially thrilled I could keep my much-too-tight swimsuit hidden beneath my layers.  What?  Like I'm going to buy a pregnancy swimsuit NOW?

 

Another favorite for me was watching Luis with the kids.  He'll be such a good daddy!

Later that weekend, we met up with the Mohlmans again to celebrate BJ's birthday and visit Five Guys (much to Luis's delight).

The Hills Are Alive

So I got dressed today and thought my outfit looked pretty cute.  That was until I gave my ensemble some serious consideration.

I realized that no one over the age of 9 should wear a matching shirt & head wrap UNLESS that person is about to attend auditions for one of the Von Trapp Children.

Unfortunately, I was going to no audition.

Did I change my outfit? 

Nope.
