~Thank you Joyce~

1. Besides the flag, tell us about something red, something white and something blue from your weekend. 

I have nothing! How about some red wine and a white cupcake. 

2. June is here and it's National Give A Bunch of Balloons Month. Who would you give a bunch to if you could? Tell us why. 

That's a good question which I'm not sure who to pick. I'm thinking that maybe it would be fun to just give some to a random stranger, like a nurse in the hospital. 

Now if I want to get serious it would be my dad for his birthday in Heaven this June 25th. 

3. What are three adjectives you associate with the month of June? Something you're looking forward to this month?

Beautiful flowers. Going swimming. Spending time with family. 

4. Tell us about a time (besides the obvious Corona answer) when you felt stuck in second gear.

I'm drawing a blank here.... Since I just watched the Friends Reunion I'm sharing this. I know it doesn't answer the question but oh well!!!

5. Sum up your May in fifteen words or less.

May was good, celebrated Mother's Day and Amber's birthday while in Montana and safe travels!

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

A cute story I forgot to tell you about James when I posted about him here. When we were in Montana we zoomed with Adam, Gabby and James for Amber's birthday. He heard birthday and wanted a cupcake. We didn't know this but anytime someone has a birthday at daycare there are cupcakes.

He was so upset. We felt so bad. Gabby ended up giving him a tiny, tiny drumstick which he normally gets for a special treat if he is an extra good boy. 

So we saw them on Monday and Mark made him some cupcakes. He was so happy! 


We thought the little ones would be just he size but he still wanted a big one! 

FYI: I am not going to be around much this week to read blogs. Visiting family in Arizona.

Did you like the Friends reunion? I haven't watched it yet. I liked the way the show ended and I don't want to watch if it will make me change my mind about that lol. Safe travels!

Too cute with James and the cupcakes! What a cute tradition at the day care! I was going to send my grandson balloons for his birthday but I had already spent a fortune on his cake so I thought I would do that maybe next year.

Have a good time in Arizona! It will be a hot weekend.

Hey, red wine and a white cupcake work great! Lol. I like the song quote you shared....I think we can all feel that way sometimes and this song always makes me smile for some reason. Oh goodness...too cute...it's amazing what little ones pick up isn't it.

My son and daughter both have birthday this month so I guess they would be who I would give balloons to.
Cute story about James.
Enjoy your visit
