'special date'

As you can see, my date was with a special lady.  The lady at the tattoo parlor.  I have wanted this for sooooooo long! She did a wonderful job. The question I've been asked the most. . . . "Did it hurt?"  

Well. . . . it didn't tickle.  :-)

they grow up so fast!

The middle of May Nick and Michele bought their first home.  Last weekend Roger and I made a trip with a uhaul to Topeka to take M's furniture to her.   It is so exciting! Their house is north of Topeka in the country.  There are about 10 houses on this dead end road.  Nice and quiet. 

So Friday we unloaded furniture.  Then Nick and Roger finished putting up M's basketball goal.  Saturday we had a lazy day.  I had a "special date" that I will blog about soon.  I also took some time and got to visit Jessica and Gabe's new townhome.  I hadn't been back there since they got moved in so I had to check out how she had everything decorated.  So cute!  Then Saturday night Michele and Nick had a bbq.  And from Roger's mouth. . . . he foundered himself from eating too much.  Oh my goodness was the food good!  

There was then lots of fun in the yard.  And the funny ~ the dog!  His name is Buster.  Buster lives down the road one way.  And has family that also lives on the other end of the road.  So lets just say Buster visits a LOT.  What a sweetie!  "Except he swipes tennis balls!"
