Picture day
I thought I would try to get a pic of all the kids together but 4 just seems to be an impossible number.
Perhaps I should say that #4 was impossible... she is fine for the solo pic but tends to wander off during group sessions.

Bumper Cars
We seem to have a problem in my family with bumping cars.
This problem is accompanied by a hit and run problem.
.
It all began several months ago when my Grandma Purtell bumped into my mom's car on the way to a wedding. After the wedding my mom noticed new damage to her new-to-her car.
The next day Grandma told her her vehicle was involved in an accident , Grandma backing into it.
.
No biggie. Or so we thought.
.
It appears that bumping cars runs in the family.
.
So mom gets a call from the police (hence the above pic)
"Bad boys, bad boys what you gonna do when they come for you"
.
Leaving a meeting she bumped another car then drove off. For shame.
She did not feel the bump so she was a bit surprised to find out she was wanted by the local sheriff.
.
No biggie insurance will cover the damage, she wasn't hauled of to jail, and more importantly HER NAME WILL NOT APPEAR IN THE PAPER.
.
In time this would have been forgotten until this post has immortalized it forever in blog land.
.
Good thing I live so far away I can sense the impending death threats. (which are against the law like leaving the scene of an accident, Mom)
.
Here is the biggie.
.
Am I next? Is it my generations turn. Should I put my keys away forever for fear of bumping another vehicle and then giving in to the urge to run?
.
No biggie. It was not bumper cars it was a game of Tag your it. Grandma tagged Mom's car.
Mom's car is IT not Mom.
Mom's car tags mystery persons car... Mystery person's car is IT.
.
Hmmmmm..... Drivers beware a Mystery IT is driving around Galesburg, Il preying on unsuspecting vehicles....

Room Evolution
So Jesse was gone for a week and I cleaned out the Library/Junk room.





While I was on a room changing spree I painted my Living room. I LOVE the color.

Devonae promptly claimed it as her room.
Room cost Free.
So red was just not working so we did a bit of changing.
Room cost 20.00
Devonae is such a wonderful help to her mommy so I decide to let her help choose decorations for her new room. After tears about painting walls bright purple, caution yellow , and barbie pink we settled on green. Hey I may be selling this house in 6 months.
So here is what we ended up with for about 120.00
