Paul's last visit and Kelly's car


Having some picture fun during Paul's final visit home before he leaves on his mission.




October...

Emily, "Hello?"
Kelly. "Guess who gets a new car?"
Emily, "San Pablo's giving you a city car?"
Kelly, "No. Some lady in a red Jaguar just ran into the side of my car. It's totalled."

This is Kelly's way of getting an upgrade on his car. We get a car stolen or someone rams into it and we use the insurance money plus a little savings and Kelly gets an upgrade.
Good-bye 1991 Honda...Hello 2003 Corolla!
 


Nika-isms

Since I haven't been so diligent on doing this blog thing - I guess I'll have to play catch up.  Now that Anika does school at home, we get to spend a whole lotta time together. 

Anika studying History.
"I hate studying about dead people. Why can't we study about people like Steve Jobs." 
Mom, "Steve Jobs is dead."

. . . . .

Anika is a HUGE One Direction fan.  One day she says...
"Which guy from One Direction do you think is cute?"
My response...
"Wouldn't that be a little weird if I thought one of those guys was cute."
Reality check... You know you're getting old when teen boy band guys don't even appeal to you anymore. I think I prefer a more distinguished looking man.

Clicker

I bought myself a new toy!  For 9 Bucks, I bought myself a remote for my camera. Notice Ty with his "Wallace" smile (Wallace from "Wallace and Grommit" of course) and me with the clicker in hand.  I can finally take and be in the pictures at the same time. 















Looks like someone else was having fun with my new "Clicker".
