Gimme five.

Man, it's been forever since I did some Friday Favorites. Just to be alliterative, I'm going to throw out Five Friday Favorites today.

1. Favorite thing that my husband and I do together (that I care to discuss): Lie in bed, stare at the ceiling, and just talk.

2. Favorite childhood picture:
That's me and my dad. I miss him.

3. Favorite thing about my bishop: he never, EVER falls asleep on the stand. It's amazing. Plus, he reads any book I recommend to him.

4. Favorite thing to do with Baby G: write on my laptop while he cuddles next to me in a blanket cocoon with his head tucked under my arm. It's slow typing but happier writing.

5. Favorite current treat: garlic and chive cream cheese on Ritz crackers. I'm a total cretin. Just go with it, yo.

I love the picture of you and your dad. I just love the captured moments like that.

Saw your post title and couldn't help but think of "Gimme Three"— an advertising phrase used for KY3 in Kansas City that I used to watch with my Grandfather when visiting them in Arkansas.

Very cute picture of you and your dad. Those moments are truly precious.

What a great picture of you and your dad!

Debbie said...

Yum. That cream cheese sounds good. And that photo is so beautiful. No wonder you treasure it.

Husband was looking over my shoulder and said "Cool photo. Is that John Ritter?"

I said no.

Great post.

Cream cheese... mmmmm.

Dang, you're gonna make me all weepy. The older I get, the more sentimental I am about family. Stop it already.

That is the most precious pic! Not posed at all, just a sweet moment. Love it!

Your bishop doesn't fall asleep? Ever? Wow.

Oh, I meant in church. We get tons of sleepers in our ward. =)

Love the picture. Love the post too. =)

That picture is beyond amazing. Love.

And also love garlic and chive cheese - that was my bedtime snack last night. Except I had mine on fresh French bread. Being married to a guy who served a mission in France exacts certain penalties, don't'cha know. Mmm...yummy...

I wish I wasn't too exhausted every night to just fall asleep. I need more talking time with my husband!

Kazzy said...

The hubby chat sessions are the best. And I bet you are a good conversationalist.

Love the photo. So sweet.

Love, love, love the picture with your dad.

And I'm pretty sure your bishop is a robot.

And try adding a little salsa to your cheese and cracker treat. Que yummy!

And I really appreciate the virtual hugs and besos over at my place today. You're a gem.

I knew it! I knew it I knew I KNEW it when you talked about being "stupid tired" what was going on.

Just read your comment on That Girl's blog.

March may be a great month for more than one of us...

p.s. ADORABLE pic of you and your papa.

Erin said...

Great, now I'm hungry.

That picture of you and your dad is just adorable. I love it.

I love those easy relaxing moments with my hubby too.

And that picture is too cute. It is awesome that the moment was captured.

Your treat sounds delicious.

Love four of your "Gimmie fives." Adore one of them. Your dad, of course. Oh wait, adore the Baby G. one too. Oh wait, I'm hungry. Send some of that cream cheese goodness. I like cretin. And plebian. I relate.

That is a beautiful picture of you and your dad. How cool. I love #1. That's my favorite thing to do with my hubby too.

that picture is so sweet it makes me cry. It's a reminder to me to take more pictures of my kids & husband (usually he's the photographer around here).
