Confession: OOps, I did it first...

White Ink Tattoos

Don't ask how I came across this... (I wasn't up way too late surfing around the interweb waiting for Abe to get home from work, even though I most certainly would fall asleep before he does...)

Apparently, white tattoos are the thing to do if you're a young person in hollywood. Hate to say it, and maybe I shouldn't, but here's to being honest: Uh, I got one first.

Okay, maybe not first, but probably before most of these kids. I think I got mine the end of 2001. It's a white cross on my belly, kind of above my left hip. Yeah, bright idea, I know... To be entirely honest, after a few years and a couple babies, it has lost most of it's color and looks a lot more like a stretch mark than anything else...

Awesome, I know. 

Also, I love how the people in the article just say they are doing it because their friends are.
She said: ‘Everyone in LA is having the tattoos so I just had to have one. I saw Lindsay Lohan had one and it looked so pretty I asked her where she got it.
Aaahh! puh-leese

Kids, what have we learned today? Don't follow fads, don't get tattooed, don't do stuff 'cause all your friends are doing it...I could go on.

Yay! A Break in the Gas Prices!

Yesterday we were in town for Wednesday evening church service and topped off our tank because the gas was $1.89 a gallon! 

I even tried to take a picture, but it was after dark and it came our terribly, so I guess you can take my word for it. Ha ha.

I hope everyone is enjoying a little break in the price of gas. No doubt it will be up again soon, but for now we are happy (and thankful) to enjoy a little extra savings.

Pictures

I know I've been way to long without sharing pictures of my growing little ones.

Here are some from a little trip to a playground before church on Wednesday:

The three of us getting ready to play.

Jecoa climbing up.

Theona climbed to the very top!

**There will be more to come soon. This new computer isn't quite as simple to use as our little Mac, but I'm getting the hang of it, so I'll try to avoid any more excuses and post pictures more often.

**Ahh, I thought I posted this yesterday, but I guess somehow it didn't make it up... I don't know what happened, but here it is, a day late...

National Chocolate Day

I just found out that today is a great day to celebrate.

It's National Chocolate Day!

Actually one of a few National Chocolate Days...

I personally am looking forward to November 7th, celebrating a couple of my favorite delicious treats. (See what I mean here.)

So, in honor of the special day, I'd suggest sharing some chocolate with someone you love.

I will be.
