Favorite photo Friday.... Rhodes, Greece

-
It has been so long since I have had time to concentrate on taking pictures....

I miss it...
I have been looking though some of my favorite photo blogs for inspiration.... 
and found my way back to  Long  Road to China...

I always find so much inspiration from Lisa....
and found some additional photo blogs though her which   I am now digging. :-)


My favorite photo this week is from Rhodes.... old town... so much history... so much beauty...
AMAZING town...

Although the week was much more WORK than leisure.... It was a good week away..
The thing I was DREADING most... (standing before 200 NORWEGIANS.. giving a speech... telling jokes (trying to be witty) & presenting awards in NORWEGIAN...  turned out pretty good...
I know that if I could pull THAT off, I can pretty much do anything...

The enitre week I was in Rhodes... I kept thinking of how much I wished I had my kiddos with me...

Greece is one of all of my favorite places... and I have so many wonderful  memories from Greece from my "youth"

Can not wait to take my them island hopping... 
speaking of  ...hopping
hop on over to check more favorite photos...






Have a fantastic weekend y'all  :-)

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long
