Dessert Brought Bunnies

On Sunday, Dessert brought our baby bunnies to Sunday School. He was the hit of the day and loved it. It was a small group that Sunday which worked out great as we had three bunnies and there were three kids present. Everyone thought we were trying to give away the bunnies, but we assured them we wanted to keep the bunnies we have. The kids are feeding the bunnies animal crackers. We had to stop one child, mine, from eating the same cracker as the bunny.

Dot's Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Dot! We have our 1st Teenager!
She celebrated the day with friends and a sleepover followed by shopping the next day.

Drum's Clavicle Snaps

Yesterday Drum and Duke were running around outside. Duke tackled Drum who fell and heard his own collar bone snap. This is the second time this has happened to Drum. It is the same side, but we are not sure if it is in the same spot. We are still debating about getting an x-ray. Treatment does not change. Their is nothing the Dr's would do but put his arm in a sling, which we have from last time. :-( Please pray for Drum that his healing would be quick. He was very miserable last night but slept ok during the night. He is still in the same spot in his bed from where I helped him lay down last night. He is also extra down because he knows what he is in for, having had it happen before. Thanks for your prayers.

This is Deer in action during the obstacle course at the Homeschool Trackmeet. All the children participated. We had alot of fun! I will post more pictures as I am able.

Dessert Goes to Cubbies

Well.....This is Dessert's first night at Cubbies. He was so excited. I guess I forgot to turn the picture right side up before puting it on. Bummer. I'll keep trying..... :-)

Still Figuring This Out....

Well, I am not sure why I have two pictures on the site. Hmmm. Going to try again...

Not working........Hmmmm.....

Well, here is another picture. It is of my flower garden and favorite swing. The playground is in the background.

I'm not sure how to delete a picture that I don't want on and accidently have loaded. I will keep working on this. :-)

Happy Birthday Again!

This is the cake Deer Decorated for me. Thanks Deer!!

Happy Birthday

Howdy. This is just a quick update to let everyone know we are still kicking. :-)

Happy Birthday to Me! I celebrated a wonderful birthday with family. I received some wonderful gifts. I was especially excited about one gift which I have eagerly anticipating using - A digital camera!! Thanks Brothers!! I have had a blast learning about it and taking some pictures. I was trying to wait to blog until I could put a picture on the website but I'm having technical difficulties. I have contacted the camera makers and we are working on getting the tech I need for an older computer so it will happen! Just taking time - which I don't have a ton of lately. :-) Watch for a picture soon!!

Dejavue, Paperwork, and Tomatoes

Wow! I can't believe we are coming into Fall already! Dot and I picked up the girls for ballet class on Wednesday and it felt like just yesterday I was picking them up for their last day of class in April. I really enjoyed listening to the girl's chatter. This year there are more girls involved in car-pooling so, as fun as it is to take them, it will be nice to share the driving load.

Paperwork abounds as the start of a new season begins and everyone needs a form filled out - Awana, ballet, etc., etc. I need a stamp that doesn't just have our address, it should have every child's name, birthdate, and grade plus phone numbers and grandparents names and numbers AND my signature and the date. Brother! Dot went to a girlfriend's birthday party and I had to sign my name three times on the form so she could swim and rock climb. (It was well worth it -she had a blast.) :-)

Tomatoes have been coming out of our ears lately. The garden has been producing them prolifically. Besides passing on tomatoes to friends we have had enough for over 5 gallons of spaghetti sauce I figure and there are more out there. The squash are looking good and the raspberries are coming despite the deer's munching last spring. Hopefully the later warmer weather will mean the raspberries will have enough time to ripen. We have had trouble in the past with not getting as many as we could because they took so long to ripen. The green peppers have been doing fantastic despite the weeds growing around them. I use them basically in salsa or spaghetti sauce but Dot had a friend over who just munched them from the garden like an apple!

I figured out how to order books from the library and was tickled hot pink to go into the library and just pick up the books I needed. I am loving technology!
