April 22


My craft!


Ashie stayed at my inlaws Sunday till Monday and made me a craft. They love going to Nanny & Pops one at a time because they get so much attention. They go shopping, go to dinner, and make crafts. They get the computer all to themselves and they get to sleep where ever they want. I think this is one of the better things they have made me

The sun is rising!!!


This is the view from my back porch in the morning when I get home from the gym. This time of year the sun is just coming up and I love the way it looks. Other times of the year it is black out.

Pajama Day!!


I love Spirit week!! They always have a pajama day. We love going to school in our jammies. Of course it makes dh nuts. It "looks Lazy" Excuse me, but I got up, went to the gym, showered, got the kids breakfast, threw in a load of wash and then went to school. Is that lazy??? I can't wait till the weather turns nice and I can have a friday happy hour and have all my friends over in their jammies to make him nuts!!

The moon?


This is the view in my rear view mirror at the gym each day. The first few times I thought it looked like the moon. It is actually a light in the parking lot. I always manage to park in just about the same spot, because I always see it.

Great sky!


I was on the way to the gym this morning and I thought the sky looked great. Now that I look at it - it is sort of funny. Does this look like a house in the Hamptons? It is a little farm on the way to the gym - believe it or not on this road there a quite a few farm houses!!

Reading Olympics


Each year our school does this. Usually they do it for a month, but for some reason they did it for only two weeks. So we had to read constantly. We had two weeks and they wanted the kids to read 15 minutes a day. We managed to get over 400 minutes - but there were people who had over 1000 minutes , 700+ minutes- I guess they have no life. I thought I was pushing the girls - they read in the mornings before school and inbetween homework and karate

Who knew??

OK, I got this in the mail and I just about cracked up. Southwest Gourd Fine Art Show. "a juried exhibit featuring many of the best gourd artists in America" I didin't know such a thing existed. What made this even funnier was that we had just seen Mr. Woodcock - where they were having a "Cornivale" And my daughter in law said they have that back home (she's from Texas) I get this in the mail and it is in Kerrville, TX - I asked her if this happens at the Cornivale!!

So, dh took the girls to breakfast and to religion, and I started to clean the house. My daughter in law - after being laid up for a week got a bug and wanted to clean the kitchen. So, even though she wasn't supposed to be doing that much, her and my son cleaned the kitchen while I tackled the living room. Both were well over due for a good cleaning! I love when my house is all clean. I really like it much better when I come home from work and someone else has done it for me!!

This was the day of the parade. Dylynn did a demo of self defense. She pretended to kick some butt. It was really cute - one minute the big kids are standing the next they are on the ground. LOL!! She pretty much thought she was hot stuff!!
