Forky

Cool theaters with heaps of junk food is where you want to be on hot summer days (when you're not in the pool of course).

If you have been to see Toy Story 4 you will understand the pictures of Forky.  If you haven't been...  well then, you will look at Forky and wonder...

The kids were delighted to participate in making their very own Forky.

I found this sign on the bathroom stall wall. Good ol' Dr. Seuss always knows the right things to say!

Jake shows off his Forky.

Marissa says, "Meet Forky".

Summer's Forky and Rissi's Forky seem to be getting along just fine.

We had to keep an eye on them.  They were looking for the trash.  *wink, wink*  Yea, you know what I'm talking about you Toy Story 4 people out there.

These grands are wild, crazy, amazing, and bums.  Yea, you heard me right.  They bummed all of my quarters off of me to get surprise toys in the above kid-magnet machines.  It was a fun day and a great way to kick off the start of summer.

Dear Diary,

Mom said, "Stop scratching your chin, stop biting your feet, stop licking the bed all night.  Gracie, you're bored!  You need a play date with Ellie!"  And so the annoying amazing Ellie came down to play and irritate me  smell my butt.  She peed and pooped in my yard and ate my food and drank my water and even tried to play with my toys.  Mom said, "maybe you need a walk, Gracie.  Maybe that's why you are bored." I was like - yea - I think you hit the nail on the head Mom!  And so we did the neighborhood walk.  Halfway through she's like, "Gracie you're tired."  And then she began pulling me down through the yard to go home.  I resisted and said, No...  the whole walk please!!  But she claimed to know best.  It was my limping that gave it away.  "Not ready yet," she said. Drag me, I said.  Just don't take me home yet.   So.  I got a half-a-walk and a visit with Thunderbolt Ellie and I didn't scratch or bite or lick quite as much last night.  I slept.  But today is a new day.  And ----  I'm bored.

Gracie.

5 Guys and Waiting for Baby

As you can see by her Thanksgiving day picture... 

Lindsey has not had our new grand-baby yet.  

Waiting patiently...

While we're waiting, we decided to head to Hagerstown for dinner, a movie, and a little shopping.  We saw J. Edgar, then took a walk through the mall before going to 5 Guys for the best hamburger and fries ever!

I forgot my camera, so took a few quick phone shots.  Anyone who's ever eaten at 5 Guys knows how wonderful their hamburger and fries are.

It was a beautiful day!  

Mondays Mug: Gone With The Wind

I was always torn between wanting to be the malicious, devilish, conniving Scarlet O'hara who had all the guys and dressed in the most beautiful big dresses I'd ever seen, or the mild, meek, loving Melanie who hadn't a mean bone in her body.  

Gone With The Wind, one of my all-time favorite movies.  The cup was a gift from hubby years ago.  He does pay attention.
