waiting....waiting...waiting....for lauren's softball game to end.
she's in the pink.
we made rainbow pudding pops.
it's a fun snack.
i let talby do 99% of it.
i recommend using the really small dixie cups instead of the medium ones.
there was so much on each popsicle no one could eat it all.
they tasted like vanilla pudding pops.
(memories of billy cosby while i ate mine...)
my niece...and her ice cream beard.
checking to see if the parade is about to start.
"waffle looks stoodius" was what talby wrote on a drawing she made of him.
:)
pretty pretty pretty.
lovely "whatever" gifts from blog readers! i looooove them.....thank you.
remember that sign? i found it two years ago and i finally bought it.
i am in love with a sign.
oh my goodness.
that's it.
as random as it gets...











so funny because i just made those same pops, found them on "a little bit funky" and thought as i made them that i should send you the link.
but of course got distracted and never did.
super cute! my boys LOVED them!

I feel like a big dork now for sending you that package! Note to self: Meg has 5 billion readers that also go to Micheals and think of her when they see cute stuff with 'whatever' written on it! You are stocked for a while girl!

I'm thinking that waffle and Roscoe were separated at birth...

Especially like the one of the kids waiting for the softball game to be over...made me think of last week when we "met" and just about every sporting event we drag our "youngers" to :))

sometimes the "random" posts are my favorite! I was thinking about those pudding pops last night. I am thinking I may take the kids for snow cones instead today and maybe swimming!

I LOVE LOVE your new heather bailey fabric. I'm trying to figure out a reason why I need some :) I LOVE the first picture of your sweet kids silhouetted. Even though it's not your whole family or all your kids, I would frame it. Super cute. Hope you have a wonderful week!!

I want that fabric bundle!!!
Why do the best fabrics get so hard to find? :(

So, you've left us in suspense? Which shirt did Lauren choose? Always such colourful pictures. You choose colour, the pudding pops, the sign. It is a wonderfully colourful characteristic.

We did the pudding pops too. I agree a bit much. Bill Cosby.... Would you tell me where the sign is from. It is too die for!
Posted by: shawnette | July 08, 2010 at 10:45 AM
O how I love random every now and then!!!!!:)
Posted by: Lynda | July 08, 2010 at 11:19 AM
I love the picture of the kids' flip flops checking on the parade. I'm inspired to start looking for more abstract photo opps. And pudding pops sounds delicious! Love how you capture the feeling of summer in your pictures.

Random rocks...especially when captured to share!

I have the same dress that Talby is wearing in the photo where she's making ice pops! (Yes, I'm small enough to fit into little girls' clothes!)
Posted by: Amanda | July 08, 2010 at 03:26 PM
funny, funny, funny!

Fun! Meg, I have always thought that you are a great photographer and have always loved your photos, but I have to tell you, you have gotten even better! I guess I better get practicing!
Posted by: susan | July 09, 2010 at 09:10 AM
such fun summer photos Meg. those pudding pops look SO YUMMY! i'm going to have to put my youngest on those right away. (since we're finally having some good weather up here in the NW!)
Posted by: michelle | July 09, 2010 at 09:59 AM
I love your blog! I love how you photograph your life. I read your blog as frequently as I read my friends & families' blogs. And I crack up at every post. I love your sense of humor. Thanks for diligently posting. You inspire me. :)

Btw, what kind of camera do you use? We have a lame, old "point and shoot" and then a monstrous SLR that bums me out to think about carrying all day (to capture my life on camera). My large 6 mos. old son is enough to lug.
Posted by: Kelli | July 09, 2010 at 11:30 AM
Very random! lol
Great Suggestion!!
Just to let all of you know i'm having a giveaway at my blog. The lucky winner will receive a CSN gift voucher. Come and check it out!!!

Where did you buy your sign? I love it!
Posted by: Claudia McClelland | July 09, 2010 at 06:04 PM
what a great series of shots!
random is sometimes so much fun-no pressure to tell a story.
and darn you--now i have to make those cute pudding pops.
like i have time?!! :)
let's see, there was something else i wanted to say...
oh yeah, THE SIGN!! love it. glad it finally found it's way home!
Posted by: amy jupin | July 11, 2010 at 10:06 PM
I love the Bill Cosby commercial! My sister in law and I were just discussing why they don't sell pudding pops anymore!
The small cups are a great suggestion!
