Raisins!

Don't ya just love little kids after a bath? LOL!

MY BABY GIRL JUST TURNED 10!!!!!

She got a new bike helmet, a Webkins (all the rage for kids around here) - and a couple pairs of earrings. (Couldn't wait to take the packaging off the helmet. It went right on her head!)
Cute thing is, she just barely upgraded to a size 7 pants & a 7-8 shirt size. I can still rock her in my rocking chair :o) She's so tiny! But adorable... Maybe she'll be a cute little cheerleader!


James Just Cracks Me Up :)





The first photo is a drawing of himself, & the second is a drawing of me! He just started drawing people one day, & we didn't even know he could. Now he won't stop! He's drawn 9 robot people on the chalkboard wall in his room. I'll have to post that photo soon too.

I found that darling little chef hat at Target for $1.00 & he loves it! Such a cheese. Last night he was standing by the fireplace "flipping Crabby Patties" with his little hat on. It's a Sponge Bob thing, if you didn't know :o/

And the last photo is of him & Ashlynn admiring all the zucchini our friend from church so sweetly gave us. They're HUGE!!! She wanted me to take more, but I just had to stop at 10. I'll be making a LOT of zucchini bread, dehydrated zucchini, frozen zucchini, & zucchini/carrot pizza (If you want the recipe, let me know. It's yummy!) I gave 3 of them away, but that still leaves seven! Sheesh!

Our garden pooped out on us this year. We got some good beans, snap peas, tomatoes, & a little lettuce, but that's about it. The corn is still less than 2 feet high, & the carrots didn't do so well. Actually... the radishes did awesome! We planted them last year, they sprouted & replanted themselves this year. There were HUNDREDS of them! I hate radishes though, so I kind of didn't pick them. Maybe that's why the other stuff didn't grow well, cause they were spread all over the garden for some reason! I guess the wind carried the seeds.

I'm baaaaaack!

I noticed it's been a while! Sheesh. I'm terrible. I've been so busy the last month, I'm lucky to get to my emails, much less a blog. But I'm missing it, so I figure I'll start adding a few posts.

I think most everyone knows now that we put our house up for sale. We LOVE our home, but we just live a little too much for our house... and not life. We're gonna simplify & get ourselves in a little safer financial situation - (seeins' how the economy is so stable and all!!!) We're just moving across the canyon closer to the UPS center, so we won't be too far.

If you know someone who wants a 2400 sq. ft. house on 1.4 acres, send them our way!

Now I wanna show you the amazing rainbows we had a few days ago! James was going crazy. Well, really all my kids were going crazy. It was sooo pretty! It was a double rainbow & we could see both ends... Kinda fun to look at :)
