The Wheels on the Bus

in case you missed it on facebook...


don't you just love how the frame they picked makes her look like her finger is up her nose?

Thursday Food & Take Your Child to Work Day

So today was take your child to work day, and I let Doug take the camera for awhile (cute pics of Sariah > food). So I'm missing the ice cream I had at cold stone & half my subway sandwich, chips & soda. Sariah had tons of fun at Epic, all the pics are posted on Facebook, so I just posted a few here.

I hear there was face painting, lots of crafts, a magician & lots of food at work today. So not things that are normally around when Doug's at work (well, maybe the food.) It looks like Sariah had tons of fun though. After Daddy took her to Wendy's for dinner, what a lucky girl!

Wednesday Food

See that bowl of salsa & cream cheese? Pretend there are two of those, because there was...

Oh, and Sariah found the big puddle of water in the sand at the playground today... yay laundry time!

I know it seems like I didn't eat much today, but I'm actually really full...

Tuesday Food

Just in case your wondering, if there's some one in the photo, its because I shared whatever I was eating with them. We had lunch at Epic today, and I had Curry Crusted Temph w/ Pomegranate Sauce & Brown Basmati Rice (its apparently vegan & for the calorie conscious.) Doug and I split a Pink Lemonade Pie slice, which was perfection! The top picture is for my mom, who doesn't care what I'm eating, just what Sariah is.

Food: Monday 4/20

I know, no Easter photos yet, soon! Well, Saturday, actually. This week I'm doing the mini-challenge on my 10 in 6 blog. So bear with me while I post everything I eat for 5 days...

TEA Anyone?

It was a beautiful day to let the government know that we're not happy. We headed downtown to the capitol along with 8,000 of our closest friends. That's right. 8,000. It was awesome & we're fired up to make a difference!

Here's Doug and Sariah waiting for the busses to take us to the capitol.

Then we gave up and walked it. Here's a view of where we were headed. There was a large group of us, it was awesome!

We made it! And we followed "Uncle Sam" all the way.

Our first view of the rally.

Sariah enjoying the pre-rally music. Just so you know, the front of her shirt reads "I want you to stop spending my future!" and the back "Don't put me in debt... I can't even vote yet!"

Sariah and I before the rally.

Doug and I at the rally

The whole family during the rally.

We saw this guy after the rally, pretty awesome, right?

Waiting in line in the capitol to drop off our letter of discontent & our tea bag to the Governor (who wasn't even in town, I hear he was watching golf.)

Doug & Sariah in the Capitol building.

Me and Sariah in the Capitol.It was a perfect experience, and I'm so glad we went. We took the bus back to our car & then enjoyed "linner" at Red Robin. I think we were all tired, but happy.

Sariah in the car before "linner."

We're so thankful that Doug was able to take a half day off of work & come to the rally. Now that the tea party is over, it doesn't end here. We're going to take charge & take our government back!
