Just a few random things

Well, Molly got her cast off yesterday! She is thrilled as am I! The poor girl has not really been able to play at bath time due to needing a bag over her cast! The cast came off right in time too so she can get her tan caught up when we go Disney! She has a very odd tan on that aem!
In other news Nick was able to save a little turtles life yesterday! Paul called as he was leaving our neighboorhood. Told me that some poor little box turtle was wandering around in the road(our road not the main road we live by! Don't worry mom and dad!). So I asked Nick if he would like to go move the turtle into the little creek that goes along the main road and he di want to do it!
Today is the last day of school for the boys! Onto summer now!! We will be heading onto vacation soon, then the cub scout summer camp will be starting and Paul and the boys will be busy with that! The boys have Boy Scout summer camp in July they will be heading to Ohio! Other then that just hanging around the house and getting some swimming in!!

Miss Independant





So our girl is growing up!!! The other night she told me was hungry and she was going to make herself a peanut butter sandwich. I sat back and decided to see what she could do all by herself without stepping in! Apparently all our time spent in the kitchen together has definitly paid off!! She got it all right and did it all by herself even ustwisting the twist tie on the bread and getting the lid off the peanut butter jar!! She even did the cleanup by herself!!!

Please help me welcome our newest family member!!


Her....um.... his....ok, it's name is "Sunshine". Sunshine is a lemon tree! Paul and I were watching a show on Create TV(a PBS show) called Katie Brown's Workshop or something like that about a week ago. Turns out she actually grew up in Northern Michigan and mentioned that she loved growing lemon trees because they did well inside. Well Paul sometimes bugs me about getting some "green things" in the house. I really enjoy my kitchen so I thought why not get a lemon tree for in my kitchen! It gets a lot of sun from the doorwall. So we bought ourselves a lemon tree and we will see how it does!!!

Fweaked me right out

it fweaked me right out of my underwear(as Molly would say!)
Our neighborhood unfortunatly has become a haven for thiefs apparently. A few weeks ago 2 homes were broken into, one was when the homeowner was present and thwarted them thankfully no one was hurt. Then my friend called me yesterday morning and she lives two streets away from us and she let me know that her nieghbor across the street had her car broken into that was in the garage that was open because the husband was outside cutting grass! So we think these are young kids(like late teens) and it is very unsettling. Well last night hubby and I were sitting on the sofa and it was about 9:30 at night and I heard the front screen open!! needless to say I FWEAKED RIGHT OUT!!!!!!!!! Then paul and I remembered this is pay week for his workers and one of them was obviously dropping off paperwork!! Still!! I was so scared!!! Thankfully though that incident reminded husband that I really want to get some sort of decorater type container that can be used as a sort of dropoff for paperwork, and the checks for the guys, and any items they may need for their vehicles!!!

Know what I love??


When my Lilac bushes are in bloom!! My goodness it smells so pretty!! I think I need to get more to plant around the house!!!

Why is it

Why is it that on days that I am up and ready to go go to church, the rest of the family is easily woken, that Joe is the hardest to get up and complains all the time. Now take today when I slept in and did not get up in time that Mr. Joe was up bright and early at 7:30 am!!!! I guess I need to tell him the night before that we are going to church and have him wake us up!!! Might be less stress that way!!
