Tomfoolery

Tomfoolery! When is the last time you actually heard someone use that word in a sentence?   We celebrated Father's Day in grand style; my parents and brother came over and we grilled huge rib-eye steaks. After they went home we decided a trip to CVS and Home Depot was in order. Thrilling huh? Anyway Elisha found some cool crackle nail polish in CVS and hence the impetus for my story.  When we got home Elisha decided to give herself a manicure and paint her nails.  I had done mine earlier that morning with a nice hot pink color to match my outfit and was anxious to try out this new crackle polish.  (Elisha tells me all her friends are talking about it). Anyway we were on the back porch with all our paraphernalia and had a good ole time with the polish while Andrew was raking the ground ivy out of the lawn and watching and not saying a whole lot. Daisy was right there with us like one of the girls and Elisha painted Daisy's toenails orange.  It was so cute.! Later when we were in the house and I was downloading the photos Andrew was looking at the computer with me and I said, "Isn't Daisy cute getting her nails painted?" He said,  "And she's such a willing participant in your Tomfoolery...." My husband-he cracks me up.  Probably no one else in the entire world will think this is funny but Elisha and I just rolled.  Happy Father's Day.

Love the image of the girls painting their nails including Daisy :-) My hair dresser carries that crackle polish too! I almost had my toe nails done at the shop. He said it lasts for up to 6 weeks. It's hard for me to spend that kind of cash for toe nails when all I do is farm work :-)
