I’ve blogs trapped inside my mind – they are stuck there, some I want to share, others I don’t, some I can’t and some I won’t. So I haven’t been blogging as much as a result of the clogs of blogs in my brain, mind and soul. Sigh. It isn’t a writers block as much as a block to my writing ~ afraid that once I pen the words I can’t take them back….so I’m waiting for the anger to pass, the path to be corrected, the world to move a little more….then I’ll burst forth.
Beware ~ you’ve been warned.
I’ll take easy street – here are pics from the weekend

MCC 2009 and stuff
There is soo much to tell - I don't know where to begin. Adding Courtney to our family has been joyful and crazy busy. I'll be telling you more about her as time goes by and we work on her adoption finalization.
The MCC Sale (Mennonite Central Committee) is a huge quilt auction, food sale, visiting with friends and family time. Our company donates for inflateables and we man them with a mini-golf course for two days - all proceeds (just our stuff raised over $4200) go to MCC and their various missions. So - here are some weekend pics.

Yellow-Yatcha
This is a family “car game” that we adopted from my sis-in-law Helen and her kiddos YEARS ago when they were little! It is called “Yellow-Yatcha” and here is how you play.
· You spot a Volkswagon beetle car and you call our “beetle-be-gotchya” and you have 3 points.
· Your spot a YELLOW VW beetle and you call our “yellow-yatcha beetle-be-gotchya” and you have 5 points.
· You spot any ordinary yellow vehicle (can not have commercial lettering or it is minus 1 point) and it is a “yellow-yatcha” worth one point.
· If you falsely yell out “yellow-yatcha “ – you lose 1 point as well.
· If you don’t see many yellow non-commercial vehicles, add in: “PT Cruiser-be-gotchya” for 2 points.
Have fun!
Oh and “Yellow-Yatcha Beetle-be-gotcha!”
