ARGH Matey!

Our lives must have been really quiet and quite boring before this little girl blessed us with her presence! I get to dine with princesses, swim with mermaids, dance with ballerinas.....and pretty much all day today I got to hang out with a pirate....argh! I know, I know it looks more like a gypsy, but she WOULD correct you if you called her anything BUT a pirate! She is very creative and I love her using her wild imagination.....if it's good for nothing else, I sure get lots of laughs!





Oh, and she was caught using my camera without my knowledge when I downloaded the pictures and this popped up.....no, I don't play on Disney websites regularly. :o) Proof that she can be quite a stinker at times too.....I am lucky though that this is all she does.





This princess has helped me come to the conclusion that I had committed too much of my time to other people. It is hard for me to tell people no, or even harder to quit after I have started something but I had to hand over the task of junior high cheer....I will officially meet the new sponsor tomorrow after school, and I will miss the girls terribly (as will Brooke for the most part)....but I know I am doing the right thing and will enjoy what I NEED to be doing with that time instead.



Oh and to update....Steven has um 'removed' 4 skunks so far, with the trap still set.....hopefully we will run out of skunks eventually. And we got a brand new, beautiful cedar fence to help keep them out.....I will try to remember to post pics for those of you who would want to look at wood....hehe.
