Another page...

I made my personal page goal for the month with this page....



I so love that picture of Oliver... what a cutie pie!

Now, on to tackle my April page goal... tomorrow!

Mud River...

What happens when you combine a dirt road... that has been scraped of all its lovely grave... and a few days rain? MUD RIVER! This is the end of my drive way, no way can anyone get in and out without worrying about getting stuck in the muck!

I Spy...

Here is a page I did yesterday. It makes my 4th for the month, I need to do one more to make my month's goal of 5. Think I can do it? Today is the last day of the month!!!

Wednesday Stuff...

So, I am abou sick to death of the work crew out in front of my house! They are working now on the drainage system, another step before they pave the road. Here's my view today...
Notice the white arrow in the top picture... it points to a person and shows how deep down they are digging!!!




Here is a picture of the flowers my friend Lisa sent me while I was in the hospital... I have been meaning to post it, cause they are so beautiful. The second picture is of the later blooming lily, who decided to bloom once the rest were dead! LOL



Today was a rather good day! I was able to get out and go to church for dinner. It was so nice to get out for a bit.

I made a card today for some very special ladies who gave me a very nice gift... I think the card turned out very pretty... once of my faves I have ever done!


Welp, that's all my ramblings for today... I am going to go rest, and hopefully scrap a page here in a bit!!!

All in One...

OK, so it's been a little while since I updated, so I will share some photos here all in one post...

First of all I want to share some pictures I took of some flowers from my flower bed. They are so pretty this year, and the hyacinths smell gorgeous as usual!!



Also, Timothy... FINALLY... got a haircut as well! It looks so much nicer now... here's before:


And after... isn't he handsome?


Easter was lo-key for us. The Bunny passed us over, but the kiddos didn't get left out. Katie's gift was a trip to New York, in which she returned home on Easter Sunday. Here she is with a photo she brought home...


And Timothy got a new video game...


The best news I haven't shared yet, was that Katie was accepted into Governor's School for the 2008 session!!! She is over the moon thrilled! This will be an excellent opportunity for her and we are all proud of her!!!

And lastly... what would a blog entry be without a kitty photo???
Here ya go....


Bet you thought it would be the twins, huh? Nope, I do have other kitties, and this one hasn't been in the spotlight lately... this is Little Bit, who has taken up residence with mom and dad (shhhh... don't tell anyone, cause Poppy don't like cats...LOL)

Sunday Check in...

Hey guys.. I am feeling a little better today in the weakness department. By yesterday afternoon, I finally had enough strength to use my scooter thing.... it's not so bad. I cannot sit at the computer for more than a few minutes at a time, cause if my leg is not elevated high, it starts to tingle. I am hoping that will change once I get this cast off.... that happens at my 2 week visit. Back to the couch I go... here's a photo for your veiwing pleasure...

There's a WINNER!!!

OK, I had to post this here, because it was just too cute!!! I was working on choosing a winner for the Weekend crop on ScrapHappy. I got all my names cut out, and my bowl was too small, so I opened up the ottoman, and threw them all in there. Before I could get my hand in there to draw a name, in went a kitty! So, he dug around in there a few seconds, and then grabbed one with his mouth.... check out the last picture to see the WINNER!!!!






So ELLEN... you can thank Garfield for choosing YOU!!!

Too Much Fun!

OK, I know I shouldn't have, but I couldn't resist myself.... this thing is too much fun! LOL

My New Wheels!

SO, getting ready for this surgery has been quite an adventure. Today I aquired my new "wheels." This I will use while I am not allowed to put my foot on the floor (basically for 6 weeks) and then even for a while beyond that. This is called a Roll Around. Kind of cool little "toy," and I am wondering how to keep the kids from playing on it! LOL My knee sits on the seat, and then my left foot will be on the floor to push myself around on. It even has brakes on the handle bars! And check out the nifty little basket in front. All I need now is a horn! LOL

Katie got a Haircut!!!

Here are the before and after shots! I think she looks so cute with the new cut!!

New Couch!

So yesterday, I decided to go shopping for a new recliner for me to sleep in after my surgery. This is what I came home with!!!

Notice how the kitties are checking it out? Garfield decided he loves it!!!
