TGIF Fun With Solaris Color Setting/Cell Phone Camera

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

Day Two Hundred Seventeen 2010

I Scream!

Grandkids Shelby and Elijah scope out the tasty frozen choices at the Marble Slab Creamery this afternoon.

It all came down to chocolate and vanilla--classic flavors. Shelby got two different flavors of chocolate and Elijah chose Birthday Cake and good old vanilla. Stuffed inside a waffle cone coated in white chocolate and sprinkles.

"Granny, if I eat all this, I'll get sick." (He took his chances.)

Yum! It even smells good.

Lick!Lick!Lick! Gooood stuff! Fun times!

Day Two Hundred Sixteen 2010

Breaking News ...

I went outside today only when I had to, because it was HOT. 100+ degrees most everywhere except maybe the Southern Hemisphere, where it is Winter. You lucky people! Well, it is Summer in the South in August, so the heat should come as no big surprise to those of us who have lived here all our lives. Hard to imagine the concept of a Snow Day right now, but it's coming. Probably not soon enough for some of us. For now I think I'll stay inside. This too shall pass.

Day Two Hundred Fifteen 2010

Hanging Out With Elijah

Grandson Elijah is hanging out with me part time this week until his stint at Mother's Day Out starts next week. He looks like Mr. Tough Guy in this pic.

Had his "wife beater" undershirt on today. He gets a kick out of saying that. He also gets a kick out of those old Fisher Price Little People.

Twelve car pile up on Elijah Highway. Circus train involved. Massive Little People casualties. Somebody call 911.

Checking out the Ziploc bags of old toys his mom played with. Sometimes he runs across something interesting.

"Hey! It's E.T.!" he says, seeming amazed by that discovery. We watched that movie while we were in Florida recently.

He picked ChickFil-a for lunch. We checked out the giant watermelon sitting there.

Pay a dollar and guess the watermelon's weight. Money goes to a charity--I forget what. Maybe less than fifty but more than twenty five? Who knows. Just don't touch it or sit on it, please.

"Lick. Lick. Lick," as Steve would be thinking in the Cloudy w/Meatballs movie. I get a kick out of the Solaris color setting on my cell phone camera. And it's always a kick spending the day with my favorite Little Man, although he's not so little these days. Don't grow up too fast, Elijah!

Day Two Hundred Fourteen 2010

Blast From The Past

I didn't take any pictures today. Not one. So I shall share a cute grandson Elijah picture from around this time in 2007. Major cuteness going on, but I'm a bit prejudiced. Oh well. What can I say. I'm a granny.
