"Only Ugly Girls Need Pretty Dresses."

That is what my Maternal Grandmother used to tell my Mom and Aunt when they were little girls.  It made the fact that they could not afford new or fancy dresses easier to swallow. 

I could save myself some moolah with this advice...but I don't. So what if we eat canned corn this week?

Homecoming 2011

Lindsay

She had a blast!!

But after a week full of student government activities, homecoming week, prepping for the homecoming dance, a pep rally, the Friday night game and the dance on Saturday...she was wiped out on Sunday.

She was a couch/bed potato all day...you know, like a real teenager. 

Her sweet college sister came home for the weekend....we love having her home.

On Sunday she was doing gobs of laundry. 

She disappeared for a long time and I went and checked on her, this is what I found. 

Domesticity is exhausting. 


She wasn't even talking on the phone...just laying there, her head propped on the laundry basket reading. 

I'll admit that I have napped in the coat closet next to my vacuum before. 

Only because I could not fit in the dryer. 

And then she worked up the energy to try out a new nail technique. 

You know how we don't like to get newspaper print on our fingers? Well Lo put it on her nails. Intentionally. 

The writing is on the nail. But I can't read it. 

So, how was your weekend???? 

Ours was full of good people and fun...and the Coach and I even had a movie night!! 

{Money ball is great, but super long!}

p.s. I loathe canned corn, so we'll just say that this week we are fasting. 

XOXOXO
