A girl and her IPad

One of my favorite blogging ladies is a fellow pastor's wife who happens to live on the other side of the world.  Ms. Kristy of Paisley Jade from the lovely Australia  ...I mean NEW ZEALAND!! (Thanks for the correction Kristy and being your normal sweet self about it!)
She hosts one of my favorite link ups too..

Here is her reason for starting the link up which I love and agree with completely!..

"I wholeheartedly believe that no matter what is happening in your life, there is always something that you can be thankful for... no matter how simple it is." 

Well, the thing I'm loving this week (ok....all the time!) is my IPad2.

I would like to say the reason is because of all the educational stuff it can provide like you see on the commercials but for me I have 3 main reasons I love it so:

1. Facetime

2. Foto editing 

 (yeah, I know that's not how you spell photo but I'm married to a preacher so the illiteration of stuff just kinda happens around here.)

3. Fun

Anyhoo, here is the day way back in May the little beauty arrived..

Yes, I still use hot rollers.

Who knew back then of all the fun this pretty pink lady would bring our family once we got her all synced up.

1. My all time favorite reason I love her so is Facetime!

When I was away from my man,  while helping my daughter, 

I still got to see his face :)

And Rosalyn got to see her Paw Paw..

Of course the best is when me and Paw Paw are here and  have been missing the grandbabies....we  can just call em up and "visit".

Yeah Facetime is pretty awesome for us long distance Honey's.

2. Photo editing:  This is what I find myself using my ipad for the most. And no need to post a bunch a pics cuz, just look around....most of my pics I've posted have been done on this thing.

3. FUN!  Oh my, have we had fun on this "educational tool".  

Pure silliness I tell ya!

We make our own comics...

 (and for the record, Toot Toot is my nickname for Roslayn...not an activity!)

We try new "do's"

Jules and her updo

 Her J-Lo look

Her Justin Beiber

And our all time fave...Her Eddie Munster/Elvis look.

Oh, and we all really loved this new look for Nick..

We love swapping our faces...like this one of Marcus:

(we've always said he's an "old soul")

Rosalyn loves Photo booth.... She could sit for hours doing this...

(I don't know where she gets it.  cough cough.)

yeah..that's mostly just me and Roz in the pictures!

Kinda scary I know.

And then there was the time my whole family was together  in a camphouse for 4 days doing mostly eating for our recreation...

We decided to see what we would eventually look like if we kept it up....

 Me and Rosalyn's FAVORITE thing is Pocket Booth..... 

but I'm gonna save that for a whole other day.

ok. ok.  here's one...

The last one for today is kinda more creepy than fun.

Here ya go...

Don't say I didn't warn ya!
