even lillies like the weekend

I went to throw out my dog's excrement this morning and found a beautiful day lilly hanging out by the trash can. How nice that it made its appearance on a saturday when I'm home to enjoy its beauty. Luverly.

giving flowers to a guy

So, I got a new car yesterday. I love it so far. After I signed all the paperwork, the salesman gave me a dozen roses. I thought that was nice, but almost immediately after, one of his coworkers gave him a hard time about giving flowers to a guy. Anyhow, I decided to share the good cheer, and took them to work for my coworkers. I wish my folks were still in town so I could give one to my mom AND my dad. They smelled so good.

Nick thinks he's a fire engine. Here he is howling along to a siren on tv. Bless. He makes me proud.

fortune cookie prize

I took my folks out for father's day and this was my fortune. It says, 'this year your highest priority will be your family.' Sort of magical, no?

this midwestern

So my folks are in town and we all (minus nicky) went to comerica park for a tigers game. They lost, but it was a very fun time of pizza and drinks and perfect june weather. Now I gotta get some sleep so I can wake up in five hours and go to work. That's a whole other story...
