Did I mention the food fight?  I think I did.  A couple of weeks ago, Maddy (second from right) and some of her friends went grocery shopping for gooey stuff and took it all to a park and had a fun time flinging it at each other.  They came to our house for hosing-off when it was over.  My dad was visiting, at the time, and had the presence of mind to snap a photo, which he sent to me the other day.

None of them can stand the smell of ketchup and mustard now.

Look at those smiles.  They're not drug- or alcohol-induced.  In my mind, it was money well spent.

I finished an EZ Mitered Mitten last night -- still have to do with thumb... and the other mitten.

Today, for the first time, I'm heading out to work in the field.  I will be out of touch all day -- and it may even be a longer day than usual (I normally work a 10-hour day, so...).  There are some "things to do" on the weekend, but there should also be time for fun stuff.  The Packers are playing the Vikings this weekend, which will likely be the game that Brett Favre breaks Dan Marino's record for touchdown passes.  Did I ever mention that I once shook Dan Marino's hand?  Bart Starr's and Reggie White's, too, but it was with Dan that I set my own personal record for biggest sports fan dork moment.  It's a record that won't likely be broken.  Heh.  ; )  My Fantasy Football matchup is spectacular this weekend, too -- the closest game I've ever had, I think -- so that should be fun!  Y'all have a great weekend!
