Happy { partly sunny } Friday

For some people in Seattle (maybe it's just me), the triumphs of the week are determined by the amout of sunshine we've had throughout the last 7 days. If the sun is shining, I'm 90% more likely to have a better week. However, why does Rich Marriott (or Jim Guy this week...Rich sure takes a lot of time off) tell me Friday morning that the weather will be "cooling down over the weekend"? No! I wish it would be HOT, HOT, HOT on the weekends and cooler when I'm at the office. Ok, enough complaining about this weather, despite a few uncontrollable weather flaws, I love this city.

Yesterday, Michelle sent me this link from MSN and I'm still laughing about it. Seriously, who poses like this with their animal(s)? Most of these photos look like they're from the 80's so maybe this is just something to add to the list of crazy things that were cool...only in the 80's. I am thrilled that there were photographes out there to capture these precious family moments, because their results have brought me hours of joy.

If Steve and I were to have six kids and adopt some kittens, we would absolutely do this pose...I mean, kittens belong in a shirt pocket not a pocket protector, right?

Boots with the Fur has never been in a 'Best in Show' contest, BUT if he were, I would have Steve pose exactly like this man.

"Honey, the photographer is here, please have the goat (or is it a deer?) stand in the living room next to the kids." Weird?
