I was excited about the new season of Victoria on PBS. It's one of my favorite shows; I think they do a great job with it (one questionable storyline from the past notwithstanding).
John about to take his turn at his ninja warrior competition.
Sam likes this spot on the couch.
Boo Boo likes this spot on the stairs. He can see what's going on outside pretty well from here.
We thought this was so funny. Violet was napping right under the hippo's butt. 😂
The light fixture that's over the dining room table is pretty.
And so is the tray ceiling above it.
Rub a dub dub, Sammy's in the tub. My jacuzzi tub, to be exact.
We turned on the jets and the bubbles ascended!
This was written in Sam's school planner: "Dear Day tomorrow. Snuggle up with a book."
Dear = Drop Everything And Read, a.k.a. my favorite thing to do. I keep this picture in my phone for inspiration and a reminder of what I really want to do with my life. 😄📚
Speaking of reading..."read ambitiously." The Wall Street Journal is still my preferred source of news. I find it to have the most unbiased coverage and opinions of just about anything out there.
John did wrestling for the first time last year in 8th grade. He liked it and he was good at it because he's so strong and flexible from years of gymnastics and now ninja warrior. He'll be starting up his high school wrestling career after Thanksgiving.
That's him in the match wearing green on the right, duking it out with the other kid. I think he won.
I got a haircut and liked how my hair looked that day. I really wish I had a hairstylist to come style my hair each morning. It wouldn't take more than five minutes since it's so thin!
Fun with selfies/me being a goofball
Here's another pic of those pretty white roses I wrote about last week.
A couple of things from catalogs that I liked:
