my love has come along...
and dragged me and my 2nd born (my 2nd born and I?) on a freakin' 2 hour hike straight up a mountain strewn with rock piles that look suspiciously like snake houses and poop that looks suspiciously MUCH bigger than normal deer poop (I'm thinking genetically enhanced deer or moose...and I'm thinking it's mating season, so whatever it was is probably ticked off and/or horny)
When we finally got to the top, probably covered with ticks that are yet to be found, we took the requisite "holy crap, we made it and Lucas only fell 4 times and didn't even draw (much) blood" photos, which look a lot like this:
(the rabbit ears are a payback for all the photos that child has ruined by rabbit earring me behind my back)
Imagine the intense shame I felt upon viewing this photo and realizing that for the first time in our 14 years together Gorgeous George did NOT pull a stupid face for a photo.
This one cracked me up.
There's Waldo in the background, doing what he does best wreaking havoc and having a good time doing it.
And also cracking me up, upon viewing this one GG looks at me with a slightly concerned look on his face and asks, "Does this picture make me look bald?"
Now back to the regularly scheduled program...
First of all, I would like to announce the winners for the Quick & Easy Issue
(please insert "that's how I like'em joke" here - wacka wacka...)
I finally got to use the Random Integer generator because I had more than 3 people to choose from.
True Random Number Service
Random Integer Generator
Here are your random numbers:

Which by my calculations (and I do hope my math is correct) means the winners are:
Rose
and
Jennifer Sizemore
Congrats ladies,it is a great little idea book!
I've been looking through all my Simple layouts and picked a couple more to share today.
This one is a lift from the uber-talented and lovely Candice Palmer and the journaling was copied, and slightly edited and pasted straight from this blog.
I also have a few little prizey give-aways for today, I'm just waiting for the photo of them to upload.
Which might take awhile.
In addition to climbing Mount Everest Boucherie today I also went on a field trip to an old Ranch about an hour from here and took about 120 photos which are in queue before the little prizey give-aways.
Sorry.
But think of it as Vegas, baby, and you just pulled the arm on the nickel machine.
Also, check out these lovelies if you haven't already today:
Now I have a hot date with the boob tube and Gorgeous George.
See you tomorrow.
bwahahaha! i love that photo of you sticking out your tongue and then another with kiddo in the background - hilarious!
i hope you aren't too sore tomorrow!
awesome layout, as is everything you do.

The Where's Waldo Photo reminds me what my son does in photos. I sooo need to keep that in mind when I scrap the next Waldo attack. ;)

I love the photo with Lucas in the back ground! So glad you made it up the mountain and back in one piece.
GG is bald!? No wonder I thought he was so cute! I have a thing for bald men. It's called a hat!
