Doesn't everyone's feet look like this?!

What...you mean your foot doesn't look like this on the bottom? As you can see from the picture, Dexter also was quite fascinated. So, here I go...I'm going to tell on myself (and my mom) and bring you a bit of entertainment for today. So the story goes like this...one day mom & I are watching Rachael Ray and she has a guest on the show that says her favorite product is a specific instant bronzer (fake tan spray for you guys who are clueless) and that it is the best one she's every had and can't live without it. So a couple of weeks later my mom tells me she ordered it online. However, it wasn't until it came in that she very sweetly informed me with a smile, that she intended me to be the guinea pig! So after a couple of weeks, I gave in and so Saturday night mom & I came up with a plan. It says it's best to do within 30 minutes of a shower and after you've exfoliated, so man...I get all this done. We go out into the service room (they don't have a garage, but this hosts what are in most garages, but only in about 1/8 of the space) at their house. The bottle warns to put a sheet or something on floor so that you don't stain anything...so mom's solution seemed like a smart one. However, there was just 1 problem with the plan...what we didn't consider was that every time I turned 25 degrees so that she could spray the new area (only tried the legs), I was stepping on spray that had landed on the outside mat...it wasn't until we were completely done and I was waiting my 10 minutes before I could get dressed again that I realized what happened and that picture is from immediately afterwards...you should have seen them by the next morning b/c the bottle does says it takes up to 8 hours to reach full color. After a ton of laughing and then me showing my dad and getting the usual shaking of his head like he as an engineer would have done things very differently! Anyway...The End...it was a long one...sorry. And for the record, if you think the bottom of my feet look ridiculous, you should see my legs! (Although, I'm going to be keeping them hidden.)

A Tribute to Austin



And here you thought I meant the great city in which I live...nope...something even better. Meet Austin! He is now maybe 6 weeks or so I think. Those of you close to me know this is the 3rd son of my dearest friend Sheridan from my hometown of Tulsa. There were complications with both mommy & Austin, but praise be to God that Sheridan is completely healed and that baby Austin is truly on the road to recovery and is making great strides! Please keep Austin in your prayers as he continues to heal and deals with his casts. Sweet Austin...I can't wait to meet you...only 13 days until that happens...and if Austin's big brothers are reading this with their Mommy...I can't wait to see you guys too! Get ready to have some fun and to get some HUGE kisses! Love you all so very much!
