Ten on Ten: August 2011 (well, sorta)

I remembered in advance that yesterday was the 10th and that meant I needed to take ten photos throughout the day. I even charged my battery and set my camera out and ready to go. Normally Charlotte stays home during the day and Christine comes to our place to watch her, but yesterday my mom took her to get a haircut (it turned out super cute). In the rush of getting everything ready and taking her to my parents' house, and in true Katie style, I totally forgot my camera at home. And since Mandy and I got pedicures after work (a total splurge - haven't had one in about a year) and arrived home after 7pm, I didn't get any photos at all yesterday. But I figured I still owe you some pictures, so here are ten that have been posted here over the years. Enjoy!
