The Kids Playing Hide and Seek !

Two Year Old doing dishes.

I hope that this will last and he will always want to do the dishes. Somehow I doubt that it will last. It was so cute to see him stand there and wash the dishes. I can't even get my teenager half the time to do dishes.

Birthday Pictures of Devin....

I thought that I would catch up on blogging. Here are some pictures of Devin's 2nd birthday. He is your typical two year old. He has been so much fun. We enjoy every minute.

Work.....

Okay,so I was sitting at work tonight. I had just finished getting everyone settle for the night, had all the lights off, and actually finished with the laundry and my book work. Amazing, cause that doesn't happen very often at my job. I am usually still doing the book work when the graveyard person is coming on duty. Anyway, it was eight o clock and a visitor came thru the door. And the first thing he asks me is if I lived there or worked there. So I am wondering if maybe I have just been at my job for too long or maybe I do look as old as some of the residents here. So that is a scary thought. I am thinking that I have just been at this job too long. Maybe it is time for a change. Who knows. I just thought that it was kind of funny that this person asked me if I lived there. One these days I just might.

ICE DAY!!!(snow day)

Taylor and I got up at 6:00am this morning to do her paper route. We went out and picked up the papers and preceded to go to the van. When all of a sudden Taylor went down and smacked her face into the van. Not fun. We decided that doing the paper route then was not a good idea. So went back in and called the paper to let them know that we would do it later. In the meantime, we got a text message fromt he school district that there was no school due to the ice. It was bad out there this morning. Now we are dealing with ice in our driveway and fog tonight. We didn't do much today. We did go out again at about 10 this morning and delivered her papers and also did helped her friend do her route. Then I had to go to good old work. FUN DAY!!

New Addition to our family...

So we are going to try this again. The last puppy we had, we ended up having to put down because it kept going after other animals and getting in fights. So now we have this very cute, cuddly,(at least right now), Golden Lab. Of course, the kids wanted to name him, and that is sometimes scarry what they can think up for names. We decided to name him Marley. Yes, after the movie, Marley and Me. Of course, we haven't seen the movie yet, but this puppy could pass for Marley, just on looks alone. Let's hope that he isn't completely like the dog in the movie. Here is a picture of our newest adition.

Winter Formal....

Well Taylor had her first formal at High School. The winter formal was stag. You didn't have to have a date. So her and Deanza, her friend, went. They had fun. I would have pictures, but my computer isn't downloading them. Taylor didn't have your real formal. We just found her a nice little cocktail type dress. And Deanza's mom made hers. It was a real cute dress. She is such a talented mom.Got my pictures downloaded,so here they are.
