How was that?
We have some new neighbors that just moved in two houses down. We all had dinner tonight. Before we left I told Princess that the new neighbors had a baby girl. She was thrilled at the idea of a girl younger than her and as a bonus its a baby. She asked “Mama can I […]

Field trip
This morning our 4H group went to the UDF production facility in Norwood. They weren’t bottling milk this morning but we saw them making ice cream. The plant is oddly small for as many stores as they have around town. At the end of the tour, we all had a cup of chocolate chip ice […]

Good news…
This is a long read but worth it.
In short, don’t believe all the bad news. Marriage, Family is in, not out. From personal experience where we live, I’d say this is pretty much on the mark.

The addiction spreads to another generation
I found this funny quiz on “literature abuse”. . Scroll down to the self quiz. I personally scored 22 which apparently means I’m beyond help.
My habit began at an early age. My Mom used to read to me until she lost her voice. Once I learned to read, I checked out stacks of books […]

WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Hmm…20 or 23 I think.

Chief tries his hand at cake decorating
At today’s 4H meeting, one of the mothers demonstrated cake decorating. You can see a picture of his cake in the April gallery. Notice Princess’ fingers in the close up picture.
The younger siblings decorated cupcakes. Princess’ cupcake didn’t make it home. She was taking bites from it as it was being decorated.

Finally…
After three years in this house, I finally have a decent broadband connection, w00t!
Adelphia said my address was online last week, got the cable modem this week, and I am up and online now.
Sly thought it was sad that I was tracking the cable modem with the UPS shipping number and giving her hourly […]

Ramblings about the day
KP has been gone today so I’m lacking in adult conversation. Aren’t you lucky you decided to read my blog today?
The rain finally stopped after two long days of near constant rain. As usual we have a small river running down the driveway side of the yard. We heard frogs croaking in the water this […]
