I know...I know...

I am so far behind on blogging & the really sad thing is that I have loads-n-loads of stuff to blog about...it's overwhelming me to be honest...I promise to update ASAP!!

But before I do that - let me tell you what it is we are growing...

Potatos!

I highly recommend it to everyone - tons of fun!

a quiz

Let me tell you, the Lingenfelter clan has had the best time growing this flower! And the fun is just beginning! Can you guess what flower this is?

Summer

Really, does it get any cuter than this?

Buddies

Two of my favorite people.

VBS

This has got to be my favorite picture of my boy - EVER!!

Taken tonight at our church's 1st VBS ("Vacation Bible School" for you folks living outside the Bible Belt) in twelve years! Least that's what I was told...can I get an Amen?

Sketchup

Those of you who know us, name one thing that my son loves? Give up? It's ketchup or "sketchup" as he calls it. He will eat sketchup on anything...you think I'm lying? Veggie-burgers, french fries, grilled cheese, waffles, grits, and even grapes! You name it, he'll put sketchup on it! He has admitted that he draws the line at cupcakes...go figure.

And I must confess that he also loves guns...that is if we'd let him play with them - we are after all, card-carrying liberal, left wing, conspiracy loving folks! When he was about 18 months old he saw a poster with Clint Eastwood carrying a firearm and pointing to the gun he said "oooohhhh, what's that?" I don't know where they get it from, but I'm now convinced...all boys love guns, regardless of what their Mommy & Daddy's want! Period!

With all of this in mind, you can imagine my excitement when I found this...

Tell me if you think I should get it for him? And can we bring it to your next picnic?

Posers

My kids rarely pose for me...except for the one time when I take them to a park for a job I have...then they won't leave me alone. "Mama, take a picture of me....Mama, look at me!" So, what's a Mama to do?

facepainting

Loves worms, bugs and all things furry!

Flattery

I was preparing lunch today when my boy came bursting through the back door hollering..."Mom, Mom!" Of course I stopped what I was doing and gave him my full attention (as I always do...) "Yes?" I answered. He then proceeded with this bit of brilliance...

Boy: "I know why your name is Lindsey."

Mom: "Why is that?"

Boy: "Because you are an awesome photographer and you use lenses...you know Lens-ee..."

(and I swear this is word-for-word and not my over-active ego speaking)

Can you see why I love him so much? Brilliant & Complimentary!
