Smorgasbord (Now isn't that a fun word!)

So, it has been forever since I've posted and I've had posts I wanted to post, but I never got around to posting them, so welcome to Marcie's Smorgasbord today! :) I think I'll work from oldest to newest information...

Daughtry Concert

This was the second year that Elizabeth and I saw Daughtry. We both love him and his music, so it seems it's becoming an annual event for us! He performs outdoors at the Red Rock in their Backyard (which is actually their pool). It's really fun, you can sit with your feet in the pool while you wait for the concert...here's our feet.


I actually did the Henna tattoo on Elizabeth's foot - pretty good huh? That's another thing to post about another time - I love Henna!! I have been doing tattoos on myself, friends and coworkers every since I did a teen program at the library with it the end of July. It's so cool.

Well, since you've seen our feet, here's our faces - see how happy we are to be seeing Chris again!?

That's my new hair too! I got it done the day of the concert - really dark with blond streaks! I love it!! This concert was also Elizabeth's introduction to the FatBurger Turkey Burger - she's hooked (as I have been for a while)! We had a really great time and I hope he's back next year!


Next item of business - Jimmy and I have been getting ready for our big trip to South Korea and we're just about there! We leave one week from today - I can't wait. I'll blog all about it when I get back. In preparation we've bought luggage, gifts for family, and essential items (including new jeans & pjs for Jimmy). We've been planning this trip for so long I can't believe it's finally here!


So, today is the first day of school - the library was really busy with the middle school kids (around 2:30pm), but we didn't get the rush after the elementary school let out, which could have been because of our crazy rain storm! It rained so hard. We have a huge leak in our library, which has leaked the last two times it's rained as well, but it still hasn't been fixed. We collected most of the water in a huge Tupperware bin - you know the ones. It stands about knee-high to me and is probably two and half feet long or so. Well, within about 20 minutes or so it had about 10 inches of water in it - crazy - that's not a leak, it's a hole in the roof!! Our director and assistant director will be here in the morning for a meeting, so I am leaving everything overnight - hopefully they'll get the severity of the problem when they see it tomorrow!

Well, that's about all I have. I probably won't post again until I return from my trip so check back in a couple of weeks!
