::Ten on Ten:: September 2011

Ten on Ten:  On the tenth day of the month take a photo an hour for ten consecutive hours and link it over at "a bit of sunshine".  Here is my set for September 10, 2011:

10:00 a.m. - Soccer Practice

Cameron is on the Kelly Green team.  It was a fun morning at the first day of soccer.

11:15 a.m. - I Got My Music Back

While I was making lunch I looked over at my iPod, which has not been turning on for over a week, and it had magically come back to life.  I guess it realized how much I needed it.  My music makes me happy.

12:00 - Our Yard

I love where we live.  It has its down side, but the plus side is when my children say, "Mommy, can we go to the playground?" I get to say "Yes!" every single time.

1:00 - Battleship... again

The other plus side of where we live is that when Olivia still wants to be at the playground, but Cameron wants to play Battleship, we can do both at the same time!

 2:30 p.m. - Yarn Shopping


I have not really had any reason to buy new yarn, but today I wanted to start a new project, and yarn makes me happy, so we went yarn shopping.  The kids picked their colors for their new sweaters, but the jury is still out on that.  Neon yellow and bright blue were not the colors I had in mind.  This gray will do for my new project.

3:00 p.m. - Ice Cream... Yum!

The only way I could get the kids to come to the yarn store with me is if I promised them some ice cream on the way home.  I really should think of a bribe that has fewer calories!

4:00 - I Said Yes Again

I am telling you, I love having a playground in our yard!  When we got home the kids wanted to go back to the playground.  They play so independently, and they make new friends every time, so I just sat in the grass and started to knit.   

5:00 - It Has to Get Done

I do not mind cleaning and dishes and laundry.  I actually really enjoy folding clothes.  I hate putting laundry away.  You will usually find one or two baskets of clean folded clothes somewhere in my house on any given day.  Eventually it all gets worn again, so it is all good!

6:00 - Yodeling Cow Girl

The kids watched Toy Story 3 before bed.  It was pizza and movie night, my favorite night of the week!  While the credits were rolling Olivia went into her bedroom and came out looking like this.  I love this kid!

7:30 - Mommy Time

Yoga.  I just started doing it again.  It is amazing how tight your muscles get if you don't stretch them every day.  I will take baby steps to flexibility.

A glimpse into my day.  I liked it, and I get to wake up and do it all over again tomorrow!
