Happy 4th of July!!

Friday, 4 July 2008 2:36 P GMT-06
I hope you all have a happy wonderful fourth! We did a small amount of fireworks with our kids. (Haden wrote his name in the air - kinda) I held the sweet, tired, Tristan throughout the show and we enjoyed a few sparklers of our own. We were

Happy Father's Day, Dads!

Sunday, 15 June 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
Happy Father’s Day to all Dads out there! At 15 months, Tristan seems to think just about everything is a phone. I think maybe he was trying to call his great-grandpa when he picked up this tape measure. Unfortunately, I’m a little slow

A Day in the Park

Thursday, 5 June 2008 10:47 A GMT-06
After a week and a half on the road, I had to take some time to play with my little grandson yesterday. But I promise you vacation photos tomorrow. Lil Mister Run-don’t-walk and I went to the park on the corner and he tuckered me out. I think h

Graduating Amy

Thursday, 22 May 2008 9:05 P GMT-06
This past weekend we watched our son’s girlfriend graduate. Mikal and Amy are celebrating 4 years being together this coming Saturday as we are celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary. She can now do something architectural (sounds like I need

Boys and Bows

Sunday, 27 April 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
You may remember seeing this cake (DQ of course) a few days ago. We had thought we would take Haden camping for his birthday but with the weather we keep having we wussed out. We did however take him to the Archery Range to sight his new bow. Dennis

Little Critters and a Whatchamacallit

Friday, 11 April 2008 10:27 P GMT-06
WARNING: Snake photos follow (Aims, hope you read that) We finally went out geocaching last weekend. We hibernated most of the winter but there was a really nice day (It’s raining and snowing again now!) and we couldn’t resist. We were wa

Sunday, 6 April 2008 2:41 P GMT-06
We got out and around a bit and enjoyed the beautiful day!  I'm not sure the hows or whys but when there's a dead deer on the side of the road someone goes around and paints a flourescent orange X on the carcass.  Someone else remov

Only Child Angst

Friday, 4 April 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
I know I have said it before, but I’ll say it again because I want you to feel sorry for me. I was an only child. I hated being an only child. It wasn’t just about always being alone, it was also being blamed for everything. If there was

You need a bitey thing, then a-space-h-r-e-f-equals-quotation-url-quotation and the other bitey thing, whatever words you want to show up and bitey thing, slashy thing (/), “a” and the other bitey thing. ~ me telling hubby how to put

Tristan's First Easter Egg Hunt OR Too Many Eggs, So Little Time. . .

Sunday, 23 March 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
Happy Easter! I will be popping over to see what the Easter Bunny left for Tristan this morning. But thought I would leave you with a few photos from Tristan’s first Easter egg hunt. It went through my mind how monotonous it would be to fill 16

My Apprentice

Sunday, 9 March 2008 5:15 P GMT-06
If you went to Tristan's blog you have already seen these but I thought the following photos deserved a post all their own. Tristan has been exposed to cameras since, well since before he was born really, I took photos of his mom

my grandson's hand

Tuesday, 4 March 2008 1:48 P GMT-06
My little one year old grandson gave me a fun present for my birthday.  Yeah, I'm slow but I still want to show you the cute little hand he made me and the card he scribbled on for me with his mama's help.  Isn't he precious!

kids and grandkids

Tuesday, 22 January 2008 5:35 P GMT-06
My kids made it home just fine this morning.  I thought I posted an update to that entry last night but apparently it did not take.  So, they ended up staying in Rockford last night after seeing about 17 cars in the ditch and passing multip

Guess who's pregnant

Tuesday, 22 January 2008 12:02 A GMT-06
No, not me. It would be an absolute miracle for us to have a baby. And a not-so-welcome-miracle at that. I’m 40, will be 41 in a couple of weeks, and I do not have the energy in me to keep up with a baby full-time. Kudos to those of you who do.

murphy's law

Monday, 21 January 2008 10:21 P GMT-06
Is there a law out there somewhere that I've overlooked? You know, the one that says that the perfect time for your child to get sick is when you are all on vacation? Preferably, two states away?My daughter, fiancé, and grandson are visiti

Where can I find apparel for mice?

Thursday, 17 January 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
Because I love you so much I am subjecting you to more meeces today. I’m happy to baby-sit the mice, even if my daughter doesn’t think they’ll all still be living when she returns. It wasn’t until I had them in my custody that

meeting the mice

Wednesday, 16 January 2008 2:09 A GMT-06
Which one is your favorite? I am "babysitting" my daughter's 5 mice while she is in Missouri. Are they my grandmice? Three (non) Blind Mice Yin and Yang

I'm lost and I wanna come home

Thursday, 20 December 2007 12:00 A GMT-06
Remember “Where’s Waldo?” We found Waldo, Wisconsin and boy were we surprised. We were more surprised that since we’ve found it we can’t seem to get away from it. (It’s near Sheboygan) Now let’s play, “

Happy Birthday Mikal!

Sunday, 16 December 2007 12:00 A GMT-06
Today my son, Mikal turns 20 years old. It’s hard when you’ve kept a blog for almost three years, to come up with something new to say on his special day so how about I point you to the post from last year. It’s worth digging up aga

he feels guilty to this day

Sunday, 16 December 2007 12:00 A GMT-06
People's comments about the pet rock on Karmyn’s entry made me remember a story of my husband's. When he was in First Grade (70s) a girl gave him a pet rock but he had no clue that the rock was supposed to be special and he threw it in

Khris passed!!

Friday, 14 December 2007 4:11 P GMT-06
He passed! Khris took his driving test today and can officially drive without having a licensed driver in the car. Yea! While on the subject of the DMV or MVD, depending on where you live, Wisconsin has one of the best systems I’ve found. Now I

Another ice storm

Wednesday, 12 December 2007 7:55 P GMT-06
Once again my family in Missouri has been struck by an ice storm.  This time it is my grandparents without power.  My step-daughter is also once again without power,  Maybe they should all move up here, we get snow but typically not ic

the itsy bitsy spider

Saturday, 24 November 2007 12:00 A GMT-06
Our youngest son has a knack for finding tiny critters everywhere he goes. I don’t really know how he does it and when he was little it caused some problems. We once “lost” him at White Water in Branson, he was 2 years old at the ti
