a few things...

that I'm grateful for:

• an old acquaintance becoming a new friend
• my sister helping us out today
  
• no rain predicted for Friday

that I'm hopeful for:

• some clouds and a nice breeze on Friday
• that I get my packing and chores done early enough for a good night's rest
• a response to my e-mail
  

What's on your list today?

These guys have more videos, but I wanted to share the latest. Watch them on YouTube.

history

Inspired by this post, I decided to look back and see what pictures were taken of us on this day. Well, we didn't have a digital camera until the fall of 2007, so that only left last year to pick from. And, no pictures were taken on June 19th of 2008. The closest were these little beauties, taken on the 17th.

What in the world are these? They are very poorly shot pictures featuring (then) three year old Amelie covered in cheap purple lip gloss, because at the time it was funny. Sadly, these don't really hold up over time. They seem dumb now. And I don't suppose they'll ever find their way into a scrapbook.
