Gabba-Dabba-Do!

It was a Gabster weekend.  We spent all of Saturday afternoon with BoyChild and DIL and their friends down by the creek.  And I did not take even one picture.  I was too busy chasing after a 3.5 year old and swatting skeeters (big skeeters!)

BoyChild did get one pic on his phone. 

I got a couple of pics of some of our quieter time.

A new 'toy'.

This is her standard 'pose'.  

I'm not sure why the hands go to the face, but they 

always do if she's actually posing for the pic.

Just before bedtime, we have a little quiet 

time on the couch, and usually read a book. 

And every weekend involves a beauty treatment of some kind.  

How I Spent My Weekend

I've cut the front yard a couple of times already this year.  And a couple of other small areas.  But this is the first time I've cut "the whole dang place".  And I usually only get it all cut at the same time a couple of times a year, so here is what I wish it could look like all the time.

I'm Baaaaaaack!

What?!?  I haven't posted since JANUARY?!?  Oh my!

So, you don't know that BabyGurl is engaged.  And we have the venue rented. And we have found her dress.  And we just last week found her bridesmaids dresses.  And the date is August 25th.

I can show you the bridesmaids dresses, but not her dress (lest someone share the link with the Groom-To-Be).

Bridesmaids dresses:

Now that we have the dresses, (and a swatch of the fabric) we can move on to table decorations for the reception.  It's gonna be a kind of a picnic theme because it is going to be an 11am wedding, so we will have some chicken salad, potato salad, and some sweet tea, to go along with wedding cake.  

The stress is off of me now that we have BabyGurl's dress and the bridesmaids dresses.  Now, BabyGurl and Groom-To-Be will decide on what the guys are gonna wear.  Jeans (dark blue denim) we know, but they have to find shirts.

Everyone will be wearing western style boots.  None of those "dyed to match" girly shoes for us.  LOL.

And for your viewing pleasure .... a few shots of The Gabster.  :-)
