Spring clean-up

Today we needed or rather the outside of our house needed some spring clean-up. Everyone helped out and did a great job. It was a little chilly at first, as you can see we were all in jackets but by the end of the day it was short sleeves and flip flops.






Maggie cheering for no shoes.

Our two freckle faces.






Watching the big girls play basketball. It must not have been too exciting. Ha ha!

Maggie was learning from Emma exactly how to put on the knee pads.

I love my daffodils. Aren't they pretty?


I always hear doves cooing in the morning outside our window. This would be why. This is the dove that has nested in our pine tree outside our bedroom window. I think we could have touched her if we had tried, she didn't move for anything. We were going to trim this tree but decided against it , at least until she moves on with her babies, that are still eggs right now.

Happy 3rd Birthday Maggie!

Here's a little tribute to the birthday girl !
Maggie's favorite color is "my lellow". She is passionate about it, even the stripes on the road are her lellow.
Maggie loves deedles (turtles). We got one at the aquarium last year and ever since then everything is deedles.

She also loves Elmo and Tootie Boppit.
And of course bananas are her favorite food and color. We love you Maggie! Happy Birthday!

26 Questions

26 Questions

Here it is...the latest installment of Blog Tag. Are you sick of these yet?
26 is a random number and these are definitely some random questions, so here goes. C'mon...you know you love it.

1. What was your first car? A '69 Chevy Nova which would stall at any given stop light so I had to keep my feet on the gas and brake pedal at the same time to keep it idling. What fun!

2. Do you have any nicknames? Kelly

3. Have you ever been scuba diving? No, but I would probably try it. I like watching shows that go down into sunken ships looking for treasure. Although it looks scary I think it would be exciting.

4.What's your least favorite color? Don't have a least favorite

5. Would you ever go skydiving? NO, never! I am scared to death of heights.

6. What toothpaste do you use? Colgate


7. What's the last movie you saw? Across the Universe


8. What do you want to know about the future? If my children will be happy

9. Do you need to do laundry? With 6 people in the house laundry is a never ending job.


10. Do you listen to the radio? I listen to Sirius octane and lithium mostly.

11. Where were you when 9/11 happened? I was driving our next door neighbor to work when they were talking about it on the radio. I thought I had heard it wrong. When I got home I turned on the news and there it was. Kevin's dad showed up about a half hour later. So we sat there and worried all morning because Kevin was in D.C. that day very near the Pentagon.

12. What color are your bed sheets? Red and white striped


13. What's your ringtone? A generic one on the phone

16. Do you like sushi? Love it

17. If your significant other was a superhero, what would his/her name be? Okay I can't decide so for the first one Kevin would be Mr. Comedian, no explanation needed there. The other one would be The Worry Wart. He worries about everything, even things he has no control over. I swear he is going to worry himself into an ulcer one of these days.



18. Do you enjoy sleeping late? yes is an understatement. I love sleeping late, taking naps, sleeping is wonderful!!!!

19. Who tells the best jokes? I also don't care for a straight out joke but I like witty comebacks and humorous conversation although I suck at both. Kevin is the funniest person ever and he keeps me laughing constantly. Thank you sweetie!!!!

22. Do you collect anything? If so, what? If I do I can't think of what it is.

Happy Birthday Bob!






Today is Bob's "birthday". Last year at this time we took a ride to West Virginia and found our Bob in the Charlestown dog pound. They didn't have much information on him except that he had come from another shelter that was closed for having too many animals and not enough room for all of them. We think he is between 2 and 3 years old. So Happy Birthday Bobby! We love you sweet boy!! Oh he got some corned beef too. He was a very happy pooch today!
