Weekly Winners 8/17

August 17, 2008 by Elaine

August 10 – 16


Rockin’ Out



Puttin’ him to work

The driveway as his canvas

Bubble boys

(I thought this one was cool because they are standing the same way, doing the same thing!)

Almost got it!


It’s ME!

So, here’s a picture of me from last Friday. No, I have NOT lost 10 pounds YET (notice I did not link to the post where I said I would!), but I had to post a pic of my new hair color and cut. I didn’t go that light but I have some blond highlights and some red lowlights and it’s growing on me (literally…).

Also, I think this will be my new profile pic since the one I am currently using is 3 years old and well, I am just not 30 anymore, as much as I hate to say it. ; )

For more weekly winner action go see Lotus at her place.
