Ready for Summer Part 2

Well today we finished most of the yardwork for NOW. We still have to do an area on the side of the driveway, and we still have to plant some more trees, and there are is still the fence. We do want to redo that and add a privacy fence. We also want to look at [...]


Getting Ready for Summer Part 1

This weekend has been a whirl-wind. We have been getting things ready for summer finally. We got things down out of the rafters and got the kids things ready. There were some pool floats lounges, sand box toys, balls, water guns, and other outside toys. The big pool was even up there, however I am [...]


She's Just Plain Adorable!

I obviously have a soft spot in my heart and that’s not a secret, but these days I think my little god daughter Alivia is just getting more and more adorable. I watched her yesterday while her mommy and daddy moved. She’s learning so many things. She’s a little over 5 months now, but she’s [...]

Boys!

Parenting has it rewards! My kids do the funniest things sometimes. Sometimes I really think that kids these days lack the imagination that we had as children. I mean they want toys that make noise, do things, stimulate them. We played with legos, lincoln logs, matchbox cars, and other QUITE toys. These were AWESOME toys [...]
