The director wants all of us to wear heels, so that we'll look taller than the girl who's playing Annie. I haven't wore heels since Marla's wedding (and, even then, took them off immediately after the ceremony). Ouch... This is going to take some getting used to...

This is the bulletin board that Maureen and another girl from work put up at the end of June. I was too busy working to help. I think it turned out great and I've actually seen people stopping to look at it which makes it worth doing.

We went to the Cosley Zoo today. Gianni loved the ducks.

Our central air hasn't been working well all summer. Today, we decided to get an inexpensive window air conditioner for our living room, to help us make it through the next month or so.

Me with my new haircut. I just had it styled today for a picture for the church directory. I can't seem to get it to look very good by myself

She took her guys swimming, and now she is laying them out in the sun to dry.

Chuck Lencioni died just 15 days after being honored as the Grand Marshall of the Swedish Days Parade.

This picture is not very good but it's the story that goes with it that's interesting. On our way to karate tonight we saw a lemonade stand...I have a rule that when I see one I have to stop (I think it's cause when I was a kid no one ever stopped at mine). Well I went against my rule and we didn't stop. So, on the way home I saw this Koolaid stand. It was on a busy intersection (East Side drive and Division)...I thought that was kinda weird. But, feeling guilty about passing the other one by I was trying to figure out where I was going to stop the car to get out. As I got closer I noticed that the boy was about 14 or 15 years old but the kicker was that he was smoking. So, I didn't stop...in fact I turned around and drove past him again so that I could get a picture.

We have actual grapes growing on the grape vines that we planted a few years ago!

Getting treats from the ice cream truck.

The van is having problems. It ran fine this morning. When I went to drive it this evening it wouldn't start. We jumped it and it started. But then I put it in the garage and turned it off and tried it again...wouldn't start. Hopefully it's just the battery.

The orphan costumes came today!

I love spaghetti!
