Family Fun

But first, Who wears short shorts?

Have you seen the video of the dad teaching his daughter a lesson? 

This dad was upset when his daughter refused to change her clothes, which he felt were inappropriate, before they went to dinner.  He took a pair of his jeans and cut them short and wore them out for the evening.

What is your opinion of the way he did it?  

I love his shirt!  

Finish the Sentence Friday

My best summertime memory this year was........

This year has been different for me.  I have spent the last 10 summers traveling with my son for baseball.  This year he graduated from high school and decided not to play baseball anymore.  I had quiet summer at home getting things ready to move my son off to college.  So it was kind of bittersweet.

My best summertime memories always seems to be centered around my family.  This summer the days I spent with my grandson's were really special.  I wrote about spending the day in downtown Indianapolis.  This was a special day because my five year old grandson loved it so much and kept asking when we would do more field trips.

Here are some of my great memories this summer of family fun.

Friendship Friday

This week's theme for Friendship Friday is Something Good.

Have you or your family members received some good news you'd like to share?    My son called today and told me he got a good grade on the first paper he wrote in college.  He was pretty happy about that!

Have you recently created a good recipe or craft project?  I don't think I'm so good at creating new recipes.  I am getting ready to do some crafts for Halloween, but I haven't made anything yet.  Blogging takes up too much time!!  

Have you recently done a good deed?  Actually, I haven't.  That makes me feel a little bad.  Usually, I try to make sure that I am doing something good for others and I just haven't done anything lately.  I will have to rectify that soon!

Day 13-Something difficult in your life you've worked to overcome.

When I was young I was extremely shy.  I couldn't talk to people other than family and close friends without getting really nervous.
I lost my husband when I was 24 and I had 3 young children.  At that point I knew I had to step up and put myself out there for the sake of my children.  

I spent the next 12 years single and running my family on my own. It made me a very independent person.  I ran 3 different businesses during those years and was able to talk to most people one on one. I still have a few issues with getting up in front of people.  I have even gotten better with that over time.
