Today's topic is "6 things you'll miss (or won't miss) about summer"

1.  I won't miss the 100+ degree weather!
2.  I won't miss the having to stay indoors most of the time because it's so hot outside!
3.  I won't miss late night BBQ'ing because it's too hot to cook out at a decent hour!
4.  I won't miss my husband's early work schedule!
5.  I will miss my kids being home & spending the afternoon with us.
6.  I will miss all the spare time we had.  Now that the kids are back in school they each have different after school activities so we're always out & about after 4pm & finally slow down around 6-7pm.

Friday Photo Flashback: 21-August

Friday Photo Flashback

One of my blogging friends, Alicia started a new meme called "Friday Photo Flashback" She has so many pictures from her pre-digital camera days& decided to scan and share them with us! What a good way to share photos & take a trip through memory lane! Be sure to sign in to Mr. Linky so others can visit your blog too!

Today I am sharing a photo taken at my old job in high school. My co-workers threw a pre-graduation party for me. I can't believe how time flies! Just last month my kids started their first day of school & I'm thinking of graduation! We still have a long way to go but I sure hope my kids enjoy every minute of their childhood.

Guinea Pigs get cleaned up!

I posted Saturday that we were going to bathe our guinea pigs.  Well, I wasn't feeling too good on Saturday so we gave them a bath on Sunday morning.....in the restroom sink!  LOL...they love it when the water runs on them.  The silly pigs try to drink the water when their coats are being washed.




Guess who's first?!?




And the winner is.....


Meet Fwee, Fwee


Here he is getting all lathered up!


Now he's being rinsed off.


I don't know if you can tell in this photo, but he is actually just laying back relaxing in my had while I let the water run on his belly & trying to rinse under his neck.


Giving him a final rinse.


All done :)



Who's next??????


Everybody, meet Bugsy.


He's kicked back as I'm getting his tummy wet.


He was trying to drink the water as I was trying to get his coat wet.


Soap applied to body & getting him all lathered up!


He's all done!  Time to rinse the soap off & steppin up on my hand like a stool while the water was running on his back.


All done.  He's ready for his towel!


Here's the shampoo we used.  They smelled like sun ripened raspberries!


Drying off now.
 
Silly pig was laying under his towel for little bit.  He cracks me up!
 
Here he rolled out from under his towel.
 
Here's Bugsy.
