I'm feeling random today. So bear with me as I blurt out all the junkI've been collecting in my head to blog about lately!

Friday night we had dinner and hung out with Maggie and family. We had soooo much fun! And can I just say that her little Julia is a beautiful and fun child! We are definitely going to get together with them more regularly!

We went to Home Depot yesterday and I ended up with the biggest frugal score of late! I wanted one of those lounge chairs for laying out in the sun on the porch. I found one at Home Depot. They had two big stacks of them. They're good quality, with the straps instead of the plastic ropes like the kind you'd get at Wally World. Between the two stacks a price and description was taped to the concrete floor. The price was listed at $5! I didn't think twice about it and had Honey heft it into the cart for me. When we went to check out the chair rang up at $40. I didn't have a cow but we just mentioned to the cashier that the price was listed at
$5. He called some guy in Gardening Center who I ran into when I went back to double check the price. He said, "Yep, looks like that's the price. I'd make the same mistake." Then he got
on his radio and told our cashier to ring it up at $5. He took the price tag off the floor and threw it in the trash. I WAS STOKED! Forty dollar chair for FIVE BUCKS!!! WOO HOO!!! I'm still flyin' high over that bargain! (And thankful that the dudes at the Depot weren't snots about it and didn't give me a hard time. That's just good business.)

We saw Constantine last night and L.O.V.E.D. IT! OMG I totally thought it was going to suck but that movie had me captivated from opening to ending credits! Unbelievable! I am so going to buy that movie ASAP!
Also saw Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, which was okay...pretty cute, entertaining. And we tried to watch Exorcist: The Beginning but I had to turn it off after 15 minutes: too much unnecessary blood and gore for me. Beyond lame.

And now for some pictures:

This here is the band Hit and Run Bluegrass at RockyGrass last Friday.


And here's the beautiful view we had from our chairs:


Here's Honey:



Our brand new tent that we had to put up in the back yard yesterday! (The rain fly wasn't on properly in this photo. Please disregard and, instead, feast your eyes upon the dog check out
the digs):


This is a cross-stitch I finished last winter:


Here's one I did in the spring:



This one I just finished last week (not pressed or framed yet):


And, finally, the girls are enjoying a lazy Sunday in the sunshine:
