Help! I think I need a {P}intervention!

In the past, one of my favorite things to do when looking for new ideas, was to look through Google Images.  For instance, for Chelsea's Twilight birthday party, I would just Google "Twilight party ideas" under images, and see ideas pulled from all over the Internet.

I've found TONS of ideas using this method.  When I would see an idea I liked, I would save a photo to my files.  It worked great, but when I would want to find the idea to either get more information, or link back to it (like in a Blog post), it would take me FOREVER to find where the original photo came from.

Now, that's not a problem.

I've recently discovered Pinterest.

Oh.My.Goodness.

Pinterest is like Google Images on steroids!

Not only can you find examples and photos of just about anything you can imagine, on most of them, it has a link that will take you the original website.

Here are some things that I have "pinned".

I think I'm going to need a {P}intervention.

Oh, and if you aren't already on Pinterest and would like an invitation to join, just send me your e-mail and I will send you an invite....that way we can ALL become addicted!  lol

What a great day!

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend.

We wanted to spend some with my Mother, so we decided to cook at home instead of doing our normal 4th activities.

The day went fantastic.....until Marty got called into work.

Don't get me wrong, we are VERY thankful he has a good job, we just miss him when he's not with us.

We were having such a good time, I didn't even get my camera out until later.

Since Marty got called in, I needed some "mommy friendly" fireworks, so we headed to our local-supported fireworks stand.  Jameson hates loud noises, as do I, so we settled to Snap Pops and Sparklers.

We came home, waited out a thunderstorm, and lit up!

I tried to change my camera's setting to capture our fireworks, but just didn't quite get them right.  But here is what we ended up with.

 Trying to wave the smoke out of his face.

We came to the conclusion that the wooden stick sparklers are WAAAY too smokey.  We decided that the old-fashioned, metal sparklers were the best!

We hope you have a wonderful week!!

Happy Independence Day!
