July 12x12

1 ted jumping off the diving board for the very first time. he did it about 20 times after his inaugural jump. 2 we completed a total of 19 puzzles today. 3 i have an 8:45 meeting every tuesday morning. 4 they are in the process of building a new facility for parkland hospital. this is their ad campaign. i enjoy seeing some familiar faces on my drive to work each morning. 5 it was so hot outside today that we spent the afternoon completing all the puzzles in the house. it was quite fun. 6 my schedule for today was very light. 7 i wanted at least one shot of me. i love this little number. 8 adam was home in time to go with us to the pool. i'm glad we have gotten some time together this week since the kids and i are leaving for utah next week for 3 weeks. 9 we had dinner at our favorite place- chuy's. 10 lulu has really worked on floating on her back. i'm proud of all her hard work. 11 the cat was less than helpful when we were putting our puzzles together. 12 it is averaging about 107 these days so we consume a large number of ice pops.

As you can tell we did a whole lot of nothing today. sometimes it is nice to take it easy.
