One of my favorite things to do is
play Scrabble. Even way back when doing
it the old-school way of putting tiles on the board and manually adding your
score! Now, with the technology we have,
I can play anytime, anywhere, with anyone as long as I have an internet
connection! I play Scrabble on a regular
basis with my sister, Elaine, and friend, Kelly. It’s usually pretty intense…until you get
letters like this, and then every play is like wading through molasses!
Another favorite is going out to
eat with visitors! Even better when they
are your kid! Kevin drove over from Cali
to attend Bremen’s Boy Scout Court of Honor.
It was a great evening and Kevin then hops in the car and drove back
home!
Speaking of favorites, family
birthdays have to rate right up there!
This guy had a birthday – thought you wouldn’t mind seeing Raelynn, too!
Oh, heck, everything having to do
with family is my favorite, so I’ll quit using that word!
So, on to some really big Easter
eggs! Ever seen any that big?! They had fun!
Random picture of one of our
dinners, just for fun! We had stuffed
meatballs (mozzarella cheese in the middle of those big guys), pasta, asparagus
and Texas toast.
We were lucky to have Ryan and
Bremen spend some time with us over spring break. They played some Wii and killed me in Five
Crowns. I vow to get even with them!
They headed out early in the
morning to go fishing with Papa.
Bremen looks like he might have caught a decent
one!
Papa spent some time making some
shields and swords for Hunter and Cameron.
I think they like them!
There was a winter guard
performance of Caitlin’s we were able to attend. She smiles so bright in her performances – I
love seeing her expressions! I have yet
to capture a good photo of her in motion – darn it!
Colored some more eggs with Kenna
and Kaytie while their big sister was have her own adventure (sleepover,
Disneyland, who can remember!). We
played and we opened our Easter treat bags and we laughed. These two are so good together and they make me smile all the time!
When there is an almost 1 year old
around, you can bet there is going to be practice sessions while learning to
walk! She has almost got it!
If Raelynn’s around, you can bet
her silly brothers aren’t too far away!
Another birthday was celebrated in
March – Stuart’s!!
And the same time he was
celebrating another year, he was adding to his family! Not a child – a dog! Porche is the sweetest Maltipoo! She doesn’t bark, looks like she’s smiling
all of the time and is light as a feather – all great attributes in my book! Jack is head over heels for his little girl!
Let’s bring back that word
favorite. Because spring is my very
favorite time of the year. Everything is
starting new growth, the citrus blossoms fill the air with a beautiful aroma,
flowers are loving the weather and baby birds are chirping. Well, when they make it. See these eggs?
There were four beautiful little
eggs in there. They did hatch. One day they were there, the next they were
gone. WAY too soon for them to fly. Something got to them and I don’t know
how. This nest was right by our carport
door and we deferred to mama bird and used our front door to keep her stress
level down. She was pretty
protected. So how her little chicks disappeared
is a mystery. It was sad.
But I had my flowers to perk me
up! Have I told you how much I love spring!?!
But there is one thing I did miss
this spring because we stayed in Arizona the whole time. This family;
We’ll see them at the end of June,
though!! And I can’t wait!
