Day 58

After a long, hot, humid day of shopping, I treated myself to a makeover. I went to MAC looking for new makeup for my 30 something skin and decided to have them do my makeup. The lady I had doing it was wonderful. She really took her time and gave me lots of pointers. My BFF told me to put a picture on my blog of my new makeover. Philip was too busy laughing at me so I had to take the pics myself.

Day 57

You'll have to look very close to see, because my camera isn't working too well. This is a baby bird that was taking shelter on our front porch from the Tropical Storm. Even as I was taking the picture, rain started coming at the house and bird sideways. The poor birdie was getting all wet. He survived though. Later, I went back out to check on him and he flew off and played in the flower beds - most of the storm was gone by then. I think he's one of the many birds that have taken up residence in our Oak Tree. Our tree is not very big, but the other day I swear there were 20 birds inside it. I'll try to get a picture of that soon.

Day 56

School is about to start. To get a head start, I got a copy of the 5th grade science curriculum early. I wanted to start studying. I may end up being smarter than a 5th grader this year!! At least I will be AS SMART AS a 5th grader. These are my new binders that I put the curriculum in. They are pretty, but kind of flimsy, so I may end up getting some more.

Day 55

Philip mowed the yard this evening, trying to prepare for the Hurricane. Hudson tried to help his Daddy in the yard. Here's a pic of him sweeping the grass - in his underwear!

Day 54

We went to the mall on Saturday. I showed Philip, Aunt Jennifer and Hudson the Lego store. Here's a pic of Hudson playing with the legos.

Day 53

We went to Kemah and ate supper Friday night. We also let Hudson ride the train and we let him run around in the dancing water. We all had a good time. Here's a pic of Hudson and Aunt Jennifer on the train.
