Theme??? I Don't Need No Stinkin' Theme!

I've taken quite a few pictures in the last 3 days.  I went to get them off the camera this evening and I realized that there was absolutely no way to tie these all together with a nice little theme.  So welcome to RANDOM CRAP BLOG POST (I'm sure the first of many!)


Let us begin with Monday, May 9 - my birthday!  Bob was super cute and surprised me with a Dairy Queen birthday cake (yum!)  He also took the girls shopping at the dollar store for presents for me.  You can only begin to imagine the "treasures" they picked out.  I could easily imagine Genevieve running down the aisle yelling "POOOOH!!!!" as she picked out a Winnie the Pooh 24 piece puzzle for me.  They bought party hats, balloons and decorations too.

Simone was INCREDIBLY excited to present me with a Big-Eyed Centipede  *SHIVER*

At least Bob got my age right!! (cough cough...yeah)

 This brings us to Tuesday, May 10.  It was another glorious day here in Northeast Ohio and I took the girls outside to play all afternoon.  I know it doesn't look like it from their faces here, but they has a blast!

 That evening, a thunder storm rolled in right around 8:15pm and the big wall of dark clouds gave the sky and horizon the most awesome coloring!

My front yard

That bring us to today, Wednesday, May 11.  Simone was taking a much-needed afternoon nap and Genevieve just woke up from hers.  She decided to get out the Memory game cousin Lauren gave her on Mother's Day (Hey wait, wasn't *I* the one who was supposed to get presents??)

How does one open this darn thing?

Perfectly Posed vs. Cutely Candid

This is hilarious.  We discovered that this is the face Genevieve makes when you ask her to close her eyes.

Yes, you can open them back up again, baby.
