More Cape Cod

A lot of stuff happened the last five days. Funny stuff. Of course I think it was all that kind of funny stuff that you had to be there to find funny. Or you had to be me or Jamie. Stuff like the pack of baseball fans dining at Taco Bell with their friend who we were fairly certain was high on something...then the Taco Bell turned into some odd Taco Bell baseball land. High fives were abundant and the guy who was high was very huggy.

Also, the towns in Massachusetts "heart" their pedestrians. There are signs all over the place declaring their deep and abiding love for those who choose to use their precious little footsies as a mode of transportation.

There was also that time we saw five military helicopters fly over our heads in formation. Don't know why and don't know where they were headed but we saw them while floating in pool so I wasn't too curious.

We went to the drive in movie and saw The Rocker which had it's good points but could have been better.

I missed my Monkey and JBug a whole stinkin' lot. This would be my first time away from home since Bug was born. They both missed me too.

OH! and tonight I had a missed call on my cell from my brother. I called them back to find out that Hails had just got new High School Musical pjs and was asking my brother and sister in law who the characters were. They didn't know so she said, "I'll call Lindsey." I love that girl. Unfortunately I missed the call but am looking forward to getting a follow up tomorrow.

Alright folks, that's it for now. I'm exhausted.

Cape Cod

When I lived in Utah people used to talk about how much they loved the mountains and I would just kind of always say, Meh. I prefer the beach.

This is some of what I was talking about when I said that.








Of course, minus all those random people in that last photo.

So basically we had a great time. We just kept talking about how beautiful it was. The weather was perfect. We went shopping, lounged at the beach, lounged by the pool, watched movies and read books. We watched two beautiful beach sunsets and talked about a whole lot of stuff. It was so nice to spend that time together again and I love Mike even more for being an awesome husband and letting me kidnap his wife.

a few items of business

1. MEGAN IS HOME! Not that I can see her, but now I can talk to her on the phone and text her and that makes me happy - because she listens to a whole lot of my craziness and still likes me.

2. I have new readership! Emily Albright and her mom. I will be posting a wedding-related post for them, which sounds weird, but it's not really. I promise.

3. Cristin had her baby, Owen! 4 weeks early! Apparently he was ready to be born. He's in the hospital so he can finish growing and getting ready for the real world - so best wishes and lots of prayers to the Ricks family. He's a cutie!! Congratulations! (and in related news, I got prezzies sent out there just in time for his arrival! When he does come home, I hope they are enjoyed by him and his mommy.)

4. I spent most of my day yesterday with the kiddos. I took K his birthday presents early since I'll be gone this weekend. I can't believe he's 8. Craziness. He and Joshie are way into this Webkins thing - which I'm loving because it's so not as confusing and/or annoying as Pokemon. So he is now the proud owner of a Rotweiler named Steven (a name I chose) and a Gecko named Mark. K's name choices are the best ever - he doesn't waste his time with silly pet names - he goes for the serious people names. Love it. The rest of my time was spent playing pretend and dress ups with the Princess. We had a tea party (during which she remarked, "this is a wonderful tea party") complete with princess dishes, real (and delish) cookies and water instead of tea. I think she likes playing with me because I play all her girlie games with her. And I'm totally fine with that. It was such a fun day. I love those kiddos.

5. I'm going to the beach on Wednesday with one of my bestest pallies, Jamie!! I am so excited and so happy we made this vacation work! See all my exclamation marks?! That's how happy I am. I need a vacation very badly.

6. This is my final point and maybe it should have been first so in case I lost any of you. I need an idea of a name for my projects blog. Something fun but not annoying. Something having to do with me or a nick name of mine (Lindle, Linnie, Lindsey Lou Who, Zizi, Scooter, etc.) that I can put up there as a title so it's not so boring. So, pass along your ideas. I figure who better to ask than the ones who know me so well?

That's all for now. More posts to come soon!
