August 10 on 10

I am participating in the 10 on 10 project again this month.

The idea is, once a month on the tenth taking a photo an hour for ten consecutive hours. 

Finding much life and beauty among the ordinary things of our day.

For more information, see here. 

Here Goes....

8am

The only way to start your day at the beach.

Pork roll and cheese sandwich on a hardroll with ketchup from Sea Breeze Deli. Heaven on earth right there. (also to blame for my extra few pounds)

 

 

9am

Having some fun at Spring Lake Park.

 

 

10 am 

Time to leave the park. This is Garrett's tactic on how to control his baby brother.

 

11 am

RAIN. boo. My friend just started reading Jodi Picoult. I have read so many of these and I offered to take a few books I had on my shelf. So we stopped by and it started to POUR so we ended up staying and hanging out for a bit. Chase thought it was a good idea to empty her cookbook shelf in the kitchen. Well, he pulled this book out and we laughed so hard. It was given to her as a joke gift years ago and it was hysterical. Oh, and that blue knitted hat in the background? Well, that was knitted by her 11 year old daughter (whom I love). It was her first ever hat. It was supposed to be for the babies in the hospital, but it fit me. I think I'll be giving her a lesson :) Here are some excerpts from this stellar book. 

Heehee

 I'm assuming a cooter is a turtle. See the instructions about when he sticks his head out? Just grab it and wack it off!

Make sure you have a drink with your "another kiss me not sandwich"

12 pm

Back home...Still raining

 1 pm

More rain, but look?! Grass is growing over the tree stump.

 2pm

Tara brought these two skeins over the other night. She doesn't want them.

So I got out the One Skein book and planned a project.

Perfect! How about this tote? I've never made a felted bag, so this would be perfect.

 

3pm

"trying to work"

 4pm

The BEST local ice cream shop. Ice cream break at Hoffman's.

And it's still raining....

  5pm

A very very very tired and cranky 10 year old.

Had too much fun the night before at Six Flags.

 6pm

Heading to football practice

It stopped raining just in time for practice.

7pm

A little boy can find any puddle. Having fun while Gman practices.

8 pm

Football jersey handout.

And yes, I do realize that I just posted more than 1 picture for more than 10 hours, but hey, this was my day. 

This is blurry, but I love it. Garrett is so lucky to have a great coach that makes it so much fun. He played in the pros for the Giants and he encourages the kids to work hard and have fun.

So here's my little #32.

 

Next month, the boys will be in school. Wow!
