friday fotos

Here's a little glimpse at my week in pictures with (almost!) no words:





Ethan and his buddy in their homemade superhero garb. I think Ethan is suppose to be Batman--or scary Dog Man!


We FINALLY got some rain this week! Kids loved it. Patches of dead grass loved it too! And yes.... Liam is still in his pajamas at 10:00. 3 out of 4 were dressed, so I was pleased with myself.

oh look--no cushions on the couch.....again! Wonder who's responsible :) ?

Where IS Waldo?!

Kids caught my candid reaction to Mark not getting voted off So You Think You Can Dance. He's my favorite--can't you tell :)?!





--and if your sound wasn't up--you missed out on a for sure danceable song! As long as others keep making me type in robot letters (which always takes me more than one try and makes me feel like I'm 85 years old....is that a q or a g?......), I'm gonna keep subjecting ya'al to my music player :)!

-----Also I got this great award (I think it may even be ITALIAN!) from Romi that I get to give away to seven other lucky bloggers--so I choose Amanda, Miki with one K, Mikki with two K's, Lauren, Tamie, Brittany, and Jenni!!! Every one of 'em deserves an award! Just right click on it to claim it girls :)!



****Happy Weekending!!!****

I really want to win this! If you do too--head over to SITS and sign up! They have given away all this fabulous stuff, and here I sit empty-handed :( . Do I at least get the sympathy prize?!

Love the "So You Think You Can Dance" photo.
Well done kids.

I love your reaction to Mark not getting kicked off. Personally, I like Mark, but I'm so bummed that Will and Twitch were in the bottom 2. I feel like Joshua should have been there instead. When Cat was announcing who was leaving, I kept saying..."It can't be Twitch or Will, they're two of the best". Should've been Joshua, even though I like him too. Boo.

Lauren and Justin said...

um, do you mean me? or another lauren?

Caroline--
I agree it should have been Joshua too! I think it was just like Nigel said and everyone thought that Will and Twitch were safe and didn't vote for them. I think they let Will go because because he'll do wonderful no matter what, and Twitch just REALLY wants to win! Poor guy--his reaction to having to dance against Will was so sad!

And it's so nice to have someone to discuss SYTYCD with :)!

Very cute. That was quite the rain storm we had wasn't it? Thanks for the award!

Jenni said...

I love the pictures. And Thanks for the award!

Kati Howard said...

Growing up in the PNW I miss the rain a little. It was an awesome storm, Quincy and I went out for a little bit too.

Oh and I totally love the SYTYCD pic. We watch it here too, though it's not as often as I would like cuz Tyler hates it... too girly for him. :(

lee ann said...

Those were great! Love the dance photo...and it shows off your stylin' hair!

Miki said...

Thank you for the award Jennifer...you're giving me too many things Lately.....hmmmmmmm....hooray for unexpected things!

I'm private, so I think I spoil the fun, but the thought was very nice!

I STILL don't picture you as a "dance around the house with crazy enthusiasm" type. It's so funny to see that photo of you in front of the t.v. The closest I ever got to physically joining in with the television was during this year's American Idol. I ran faster on the treadmill (oh, the dreaded tread) as David Cook won.

I'll cheer for your man too since I've been missing out lately and I have no idea what's going on!!

Ronnica said...

Love the picture of you with Mark! I wasn't quite so animated, but I had the same sentiments. I loved his reaction too...total shock! I almost jumped up and down to see Will go home (I'm really not that mean!), simply because I've never enjoyed his dancing as I have the others.

Sonya said...

Oh....are they 'suppose' to be out of jammies before 10??? LOL It's 10 now and Tres still has jammies on! ;)

I love the rain pictures! Those are wonderful! And your picture...WAY TO GO BOYS! OOOHHH...and the one of them reading the Where's Waldo..Beautiful!!!

Take Care!
Sonya

Rosemary Q said...

Yay...you got an award:-)Congrats, and thanks for picking it up and passing it on. You deserve it and more.

Love the pics today, especially the dancing one and the superhero's.

Emily said...

OH NO! NOT a SYTYCD fan... Jennifer, really! ;) I am just kidding.

I love that photo, and my new favorite is the one with the cushion less couch. Why are my kids not into taking off the cushions? I use to do it all the time.

I liked your photo blog, but that's how my minds works, through pictures, I guess you can tell that through my blog. ;)

Cute Jennifer!, I love your plaid shorts!

Lauren and Justin said...

Thank you thank you thank you!! ok, so will should have won the whole thing.... grrrrr. This is the problem with this show. so , do you just like the show, or were/are you a dancer, too? although i think will was the most talented, Kherrington was my favorite (she reminds me of myself!)

Elena said...

Love the cute shorts you've got! What a fun candid picture. Those are always the best. And seriously, what's wrong with pj's at 10? I'm still in my own pj's at that time of day. :)

Adiel | Rose Gold Lining said...

But Will is so good! I'm sad he went home!
The couch sans cushions always makes me laugh.

Are You Serious! said...

♡ FUNNNN pictures! :)

Jennifer P. said...

I think we were all sad to see Will go---but his teacher IS Debbie Allen. I think he'll do fine on his own!

Lauren,
I was a dancer so I know how incredibly hard it must be for those kids to learn so many routines. And though I've seen a few fumbles here and there, I've NEVER seen anyone go out there and just blow the whole thing. I think SYTYCD is sooooo much better than Dancing With the Stars, because everyone on this show is actually a dancer :)!

Trooper Thorn said...

Great warm summer rain. Like Neil Sedaka. I think the people in in his song are in their PJ's too.

Thanks for stopping by my blog Jennifer P.

Brittany Ann said...

Aw, thanks! I'll post it on my blog with pride. I especially love the picture of you watching So You Think You Can Dance. Rock on!

Debbie said...

I love candid pics of kids just being kids. Your boys seem like so much fun! Love your pose! And wow, how did they snap that at just the right time???

Jennifer P. said...

Debbie,
You didn't see the 45 other ones that they took :)! They think me dancing around is hilarious!

Jen - Balancing Beauty and Bedlam said...

Bummer...I read the whole post and then found out I was supposed to unmute for some awesome dancing music....next time.:)

Simply Stork said...

I love the candids too :o)

Sunshine said...

I absolutely love your victory dance!

YEAH!
