Yet another blog you should waste your time looking at...

My cousin Carolyn posted a link to Cake Wrecks a while back, and I have since spent many minutes (or hours?) laughing until I was crying. Cakes gone wrong are just so dang funny! (Maybe I'm just easily humored, but you should still go check it out.) Here are some of my favorites to whet your appetite:

"Watermelon" Cake:


Refreshments for Anti-Sexual Harassment Day:


Mmmm Cake:


Nasty. So, go and read and (hopefully) enjoy.

Repenting of my Shoddy Blogging

Summer is almost done and gone and I've hardly blogged at all. (Like anyone really cares, right?) Anyway, Fall is just around the corner and with the new season come lots of new changes in our household. Like a NEW BABY. It hit me the other day that this growing belly of mine is going to be producing a bouncing baby boy in about 2 1/2 months. And I'm not prepared at all... but instead of dwelling on that, let's all look back over the Ben Quinn Family Summer of 2008- in Picture Form. (If this is too close to the dreaded "Vacation Slideshow of a Family that's not Mine" you have permission to skip the following photos... of course, if pics of me and my family don't interest you, you should probably not be reading my blog). So here it is, in all it's lack of glory:

Enjoying Summer's Bounty:


Watching Fireworks:


Enjoying a Pioneer Day Parade:


Camping with Friends (can you still call it camping when it's done in a cabin?):


Body Art from the local Farmers' Market (art done by: Soda-Pop the Clown):


Eating Ice Cream (our treat that followed our tour of the Tillamook Cheese Factory in Tillamook, Oregon- oh the exciting things we do on vacation!):


Vacationing in Lincoln City, Oregon:














Family Reunion- Silverton, Oregon:






And for our final picture, our little bathing beauty:


So there it is, our summer in a nutshell... looking forward to the Fall!
