Oh Say Can You See?


In a patriotic tribute..Word Verification does not fail me! Mind you, I am on a family road trip vacation for 11 days so my creativity is a little on the flat side this week!!!


bOredum

perhaps wOrd verificatiOn knew what he was talking about when he realized that my family would be spending 2 plus days in a strange town in Virginia while the car was has 2 cracked rims and flat tires. We are scheduled to be in DC and it seems like nothing is going right for us...so yes, bOredum is on the list of tO-dO's that we can crOss Off!

spendige


Oh Yes!!! There is spendige when we are on vacation....even if we try not to have spendige. Way more then we ever plan on spendige!

LOAD


If only our trunk could speak! The LOAD that poor poor baby has been carrying for 1200 miles and only 1200 more on the way back!!

and here is the winner for the week...


TRIBUTE


ah yes, as we take our children on a vacation to Washington DC we are paying TRIBUTE to our nation, the people who serve us every day and the amazing monuments here in DC.

So, I would personally love to say an enormous THANK YOU to all of our troops, the wives, and husbands and even children who serve our country to make it better.


We could not BE without you!!!


(in the funny words of Receiver "Fanks Soldier Mans")

Hope everyone is having a great week!!! ;)

  14. How funny that BOREDUM would make its way to word verification. I have been hearing that word popping up a little to much this past week.

    Hope you have a wonderful rest of the week on vacation!!!

  17. I'm sorry you've had car trouble on your vacation! Been there, done that...you definitely have to deal with "spendige" when it comes to car repairs.

    I admire your bravery in taking such a long trip with your children...pat yourself on the back, girl! LOL

    Hope you are having a great time.

  22. I try hard not to think about the spendige cuz it'll ruin my fun. Do they call that denial? No, no, that couldn't be it.

    I love Receiver's sweet words.
