I Love Clouds!

Mister Sniegowski and I went for an afternoon drive yesterday after church. I love it when its a big fluffy cloud day and the sky is so blue.

Neighbor 2 Neighbor Sunday, Making Omelettes at church.

Every August there is a Sunday to invite your neighbors to church and we always serve breakfast. Todd is an awesome omelette maker and he always volunteers to help.

Shoe Shopping.

Trevor and I did a little shopping today, last minute stuff before he leaves for college. He was really excited to find this pair of shoes. I am going to miss this kid so much!

The Big 2 - 0 !

Someone had a birthday today!

Francis and his grandsons.

The Bowman's stopped by tonight for a little hang time. We sat by the pool and had some soda. They are not very fond of have their photo taken, so I had to sneak up on them, sorry guys.

The Guys

Winstar Lines had an employee appreciation event this afternoon. It was a Cedar Rapids Kernals game and since Trevor has been working for them this summer he was invited to come too {and bring a guest}. This worked out great for Trevor's friend, Jordan Weber who had stayed the previous night with us. We all had a great time at the ballpark. I think Trevor and Jordan especially enjoyed the "all you can eat" snack bar.

Pizza Man!

This is a common site at our house this summer, Trevor brings pizza home for mom and dad after his shift at Pizza Hut. He likes to ring the bell and pretend he is making a delivery. Tonight was his last night to work, he'll be leaving for college soon.

Mr. Toad

We found this little guy out on the back patio tonight. Todd rescued him from the window well, and of course I had to take his picture. He's quite a looker, don't you think so?

Getting Ready to Leave for College.

Just about a week until Trevor leaves for the University of Northern Iowa. He is starting to create quite a pile of things that he will bring with him. He is so excited to go, he just can't wait to get out on his own. It's fun to see him so excited about something!

$500 Worth of Books.

Trevor received the last of his books for college in the mail today. He ordered most of them from Amazon.com, Ebay etc. He came to find me and show me what $500 worth of books for school looks like.

Our New Bed - Made by Todd & Laurie

Over the last year Todd and I have been working on this bed. We found the pattern on a website call Knock Off Wood - Ana White. Todd did all of the building, I painted it {Sherwin Williams - Alabaster}, distressed it, and glazed it with a chocolate brown glaze. I love how it turned out and its so cool to have something that you made together. We have been working on our room for a while now, painted it Sherwin Williams - Svelte Sage.
