The way this makes me laugh.

Waking up in the morning, three minutes before your alarm clock is set to go off and actually feeling well rested.

My cousin Jayce who just turned one. He's a stinker.

Woooooooo, go Bethaneeeee. It's about time, sweetie; they must have undergone head trauma that they're only now recovering from. You should've had them beating down your doors long ago.

Getting to see my favorite local band tonight!

I got these pictures yesterday. I can't wait to frame and hang them!

and...

this one is already framed.

Those are great Kylie....are they family?

dinner and walking around Chicago with Rachael.

no. ohmygosh, i would pee my pants if i found old family photographs like that!

i think i'll be moving there in june... could i tag along too?

curious minds want to know.... so if they're not family, where/how did you score these gems ?

Of course. The more the merrier.

Hopefully I'll be able to stay here next summer...this place is amazing when it's nice out. The weather was perfect tonight. Why can't it just stay like this all the time? Mother nature can bite me.

being able to get the new IKEA catalogue.

you know, it will be one of my favourite things seeing this thread longer than the pet peeves thread.

we're so close, too....

Well, we don't want that. My grandmother has some great old pictures of her family from back in the day...I need to get my hands on them and get them scanned...

Being able to really look at really old family photos and talk to someone old enough to remember those days...

Visiting with old friends whom you have known for years. Today Amanda, Paige and I got to visit with an old neighbor of Amanda who used to babysit her.

in Indiana, we call them Flea Markets.

I got three 8x10's(one framed) for 8 bucks!

wow, what a find. and for 8 bucks....even better.
