The one about backpacking

I couldn't get The Teenage Boy to pose in my picture, darn him! But the three boys went backpacking in Wyoming this week. Left me and the girls home. Savannah went to her grandparent's house so it's just Amelia and myself for a few days.

I am still dragging out the reading of Breaking Dawn---its been nine days now! I have about 200 pages left to go. See, you have to be able to read that book all alone. You wouldn't want anyone to see you stop and stare into space and sigh from time to time over Edward, now would you?

:P
Oh! I forgot to mention that my very talented artist buddy Kristy made a really good hand-carved stamp of Edward and Bella from the Twilight movie. She was so kind to sent a stamped image to me. It's serving as my bookmark for now. lol

the one about being sick

Edward is back. :)

I am torn between reading it slowly to make it last, or rushing through it to find out what happens!

I got sick the day we got home from vacation last week. I am tired and run-down and hoarse. And I really need to restock my Etsy store! We drove through Preston, Idaho on the way to Bear Lake to see some of the sights from Napoleon Dynamite. Below is Napoleon's house, sans Tina the Llama.
