Friday Wrap (InstaFriday)

Hello and Happy Friday:

Here's what we have been up to this week, via phone camera photos:

1.  Back 2 School:  We always do a photo in front of the house on the first day of school. This year Alec refused to pose. But the girls gave me a few minutes. And it takes my breath away how beautiful my 2 girls are! Here's to new beginnings!

2.  Homework at that coffee joint. Katie helping a frustrated Emma finish her math. It's nice that we have older kids that can hang out with us when we go for coffee.

3.  More storms this week, even though the monsoons were supposed to be over. There was a great lightning show on the drive home from the valley, but I couldn't get a photo of the lightning. Too fast for me to hit the camera button. But I wanted a reminder of all the storms we had this summer and how nice it is to have rain and stormy weather.

4.  I'm not sure what happened, but there seems to be animals everywhere lately. How did we end up having so many???  So this mess is my bed, with the 2 dogs and 1 cat. There is another cat, but she HATES the dogs and hides out while they are awake.

 

5.  Out to dinner Monday night. Did you notice the glasses? Yeah, we are at that point in life. We need to pull out the glasses to read menus. Oh well, can't stop that aging process.

6.  More dog fun. Einstein has learned how to open the cabinet where we keep the garbage. So at night while we are sleeping, he opens the cabinet, knocks over the trash, and then eats what he wants and shreds the rest. Along with Daisy. But he is the mastermind and only shares when he is ready. I know. Because I caught the 2 of them in action. We will be putting up child safely locks next, since keeping the trash on the middle of the island is not such a pretty site!

 

7.  Last photos are the 2 beasts busy working on their new raw hides. They were so happy last night. I was hoping these would last for a few days since they are so large, but as of this morning there is not much left. The raw hides will be gone by sunset. Well, a few pieces may live on. Since Einstein likes to hide them in the couch cushions, under the bedding, in the yard. It's pretty funny watching him in action! By the way, Einstein is the black and white beast, and Daisy is the brown and white one.

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your weekend. Do something fun!
