So, we went to the level 8 state meet today and got to see a bunch of people that I miss a lot!  This happens to be one of those people...

I can't tell you how many tries it took us to get a decent picture.  We're going to refer to this day as "Beauty and the Beast."  Here's the one I finally chose....

But, since she asked so nicely, I shall also add the one with the "Helen Keller eyes"

I have no idea what I was looking at or why I look so creepy but it's funny.

Oh how I love little people and this little guy is one of the smartest little people I know (and he's awfully darn cute!)

365-87

That would be one o' my bffs :)  She and her husband stopped by to help my husband and some other friends dig up the swing set in the backyard.  

365-86

Thank God for my friends saving my ass when I forget to get a picture.  :)  This here's my friend Bill - who ever so kindly agreed to be my picture today!  THANK YOU!!!!!

365-85

Killed two birds with one stone - picked up girl scout cookies AND got a picture of the day.  That beautiful young lady is my niece - the daughter of my very best friend.  I don't spend anywhere near enough time with her, but she knows that I love her and that's all that counts!!

365-84

I love this kid.  She's been begging to be my picture of the day for a while now.  We finally got it yesterday which happened to be pretty appropriate since it was her birthday.  Happy birthday, Chloe!!!!!  Love ya, girl!!!

365-83

He was so excited about taking this picture =)  Can't you tell?!?!

Oh and as Rachel so kindly pointed out - we're sorta matchies - same color shirt!  Course he also kinda looks like something stinks....maybe I farted...

365-82

This is our absolute favorite pizza delivery lady :)  She's fantastic!  She even called me while on her way today to tell me to look out the back window so we wouldn't miss seeing the beautiful rainbow!  Again please pardon my appearance - I had just finished working out and well - whatever....I'm keeping with the hag look...

365-81

These pictures an be seriously depressing.  Good to know I look like a hag pretty consistently.  *sigh*  Poor Randy - pretty sure he didn't really want his picture taken :)

That said, I love it when friends pop in to say hi while I'm at work!

365-80

876540000000 tries later - we finally get a semi-acceptable picture.  At least Jenny looks normal....

365-79

Yeah, it's a little cheat - whatever....I love this man!

365-78

I love that my daughter keeps making new friends - although in all fairness, she's been friends with this young lady for a while.  What makes me laugh is that I knew this "new" friend before Megan did. I (of course) coached her.  So, I've known her since she was about 6 years old.  I've seen her mom off and on over the years and always liked her.  Her mom's the kind that knew that I might torture her kid, but also realized that I loved said kid (which some how makes it ok).  Anyhoo, I had to pick Meg up to get more clothes so she could spend the night again and got the perfect picture of the day...

That would be the Meg's "new" friend's mom.

365-76

Funny face :)

And, yes, I do realize my hair has looked like dog shit all week thank you.

365-75

Thank goodness for neighbors!!!!

365-74

Well hell.  I had my first almost fail today.  I asked this guy to take a picture with me and he ALMOST said no.  I was almost crushed.  He's (obviously) a Fed-Ex guy.  He's not our normal Fed-Ex guy - I would not Bend and Snap for this guy, however, some of my co-workers considered it.  I told him he could hide his face - whatever, I just wanted my damn picture. So, here it is....

Please excuse my hair and general shitty appearance - obviously I was not looking my best.

365-73

Now this here is just fun =)

I love this kid - and her whole family!  I already got a picture with her mom and thought she was the best person to do a crazy pic like this with.  Thank you, Grace!!!

365-72

It's funny after working in the same place for a bazillion years how you come to know certain people who don't actually work for your establishment, but that you have contact with.  For example, the mailman that I had my picture taken with a while back - he's been our mailman for longer than I have worked here.  And this guy....

Yeah, he's been our main UPS guy for at least as long as I've been here.  The darn shame is, I still don't know his name....lame.

365-71

Kind of a cheater picture, but it was funny so I'm rolling with it....

365-70

Yeah, I know - another gymnast.  Here's the thing, though - I LOVE that I get to keep seeing my girls....I LOVE these girls!!!!

365-69

So, I sorta cheated on this one, but it was really funny.  I was sitting at the bar last night with some friends and we were having fun.  Well, our table was REALLY close to the door, so people kept coming in and getting in my personal space.  I decided I was going to take my picture of the day with some of said people....

365-68

This is the current extern in our office....

365-67

I could probably say a bazillion things about this guy, but I'm just gonna stick with - I LOVE HIM SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!! I've got some pretty kick ass friends and he happens to be one of them.

365-66

LOOK!!!!!  I GOT MY PICTURE TAKEN WITH DR. PRETTY BOY!!!!!!!!!

365-65

HEY!  Only 300 days to go....yikes.  Anyway, this may be my favorite picture yet.  I've known her since she was little and by little I mean since she was in like 6th or 7th grade....(I feel old) but I've only recently actually gotten to know her.  I am surely glad I've had this opportunity....

365-64

Yes my daughter was absolutely mortified when I showed up to pick her up from her friend's house in my lounging pants and sweatshirt - with my nappy hair in a pony tail and looking all nasty.  I wouldn't have gone like that if I didn't know the family - but I've known the family for years.  Thankfully, I also got my picture of the day with Meg's friend's brother :)


And yeah, I normally look like ass on Sundays - whatever.

365-63

I love running into former kids at meets....this one I had when she was a tiny tot - like 4.  It's amazing to see how they grow :)

365-62

What really stinks about coaching gymnastics is that I pretty much fall in love with these kids.  I love them with every inch of my heart and soul.  I'm pretty sure that they do not realize how much they mean to me and that I would do just about anything for them.  I won't lie, there are some I am closer to than others.  There are some that text me quite frequently (and I love it) and some that only talk to me in the gym.  That doesn't mean I love them any less.  I learn so much from them and I love being a part of their lives.  


This one is extra special....

I don't think she realizes that she is extra special to me, but that's ok.  She is and I know it and that's good enough.

365-61

Who's that? That would be my boss.  Yup, that's the guy that writes my checks.  That's also the guy who has been giving me grief ALL MORNING....hence the reason for my highly attractive facial expression.  Normally I adore the man....today he'll be lucky to escape without a fart bomb going off in his office...

365-60

Oh how I love him!
