Before you go to the polls tomorrow...

Get your facts straight:

http://www.factcheck.org/ is a non-partisan, non-profit "consumer advocate" group. The websits is helpful in cutting through the "politicting" of this election- on both sides.

So, whoever and whatever you vote for tomorrow- at least take some time to get a non-partisan look at the issues, instead of listening to one talking head or another.

This group is focused on consumer advocacy, so the only spin they will have is the anti-corporate, anti-business spin. If you own your own business or work for a large corporation, you may not like it. But it's the best tool out there right now.

A few photos from Cancun

I'll make a slideshow of the hundreds of pictures we all took there: but in the meantime, here are a few of my favorite pictures from the trip!

Happy Birthday Harrison

October 16th, Harrison turned 8 years old! It really does go by so quickly! We decorated his room in streamers and balloons during the night and he woke up to a pleasant surprise! And so was the Eagle webkin he got from Grandma Bonnie- his name is Pirate and we logged on and bought him cupcakes and mystery novels already! I love these webkins- I might get one myself!

"This is the best birthday ever!" (He says that every year...) This is the joy of opening a new Star Wars playstation game. This kid lives, breathes and dreams in Star Wars.

Leavin' on a jet plane....

Going on a blogger hiatus for a week- I"ll be down in Cancun with my family celebrating Grandma's birthday!!

I'll have lots of pictures to update when I get back!
Have a great week!

Sookie

Mom wanted close-up pics of my new baby- so here ya go! Oh- and she can swim really well and LOVES the pool!

We're finally adding to our family....

And NO I'm not pregnant! We got Sammie a companion at the shelter on Wednesday night- they were unsure of each other for a little while, but now, they're best buddies! Sookie is an Australian Cattledog, probably less than 2 years old, she's very fast and strong, but a little clumsy still. She is as sweet as she can be and loves Harrison.

Here's Sookie:

Great minds think alike!

It's such a GORGEOUS day outside today- I thought I would spend some time reading out by the pool. I grabbed my book and my water bottle and found that my seat was already taken!
