Interesting

I just noticed that this picture has by FAR the most "hit's" on my flickr page. Why? I don't know. Any ideas?





Let me know what you think, in the comments section below. And Merry Christmas!

My "new" bathroom

First, open up a new tab and take a good look at my bathroom "BEFORE" shot. Notice the walls. See how the wallpaper had been ripped off, to show the drywall underneath, with bits of layered wallpaper left on. See that? Okay, now look below.





Isn't it beautiful!?!
While I was away for Thanksgiving, Geri and her dad did this for me. Amazing friends I have!
Thanks Geri! You're the bestest of the bestest.

Sherri Baby

No, she's not a baby, but she's my Sherri, forever and ever. I apologize now for my sad face, I was really mournful for the lack of time that we had together, or didn't have together? Anyway, there just wasn't enough time. Sherri was a very good friend of mine while "in the world" during the years of 1992 and 1993. We've both ended up on the right side of things, by different means.
It was amazing to see her, still taller and thinner, still always smiling, and still blowing me over with her beauty.
What a great two hours we had. Wish it could've been more, but alas, she lives on the other side of our great country....


her wonderful hubby joined us for this one...



it was like a second, and a million years, had passed between us. We picked up where we left off, but in our NEW worlds...




Then Sherri said "let's do something crazy" which in the old world would be something illegal and VERY dangerous, but in THIS world, this is what we came up with....



The two hours went by WAY TOO FAST, and if I think about how FAST it went I will start crying again, seriously. So instead I'll post this picture that Noah took (as he took the rest). I love this one, it shows my big man, my big face, and my great friend Sherri.




to close it all up, here is what the boys did while Sherri and I and Mike chatted. They gathered rocks....

little peeks into my life

Jack not only taught himself to read, he's also taught himself to ride a bike without training wheels.







I still have a dog

and chickens



My kids, and their friends still collect bugs


Sam is trying to lose another tooth (yes I cut those curls off tonight!)


I am in LOVE with my new jacket and YES, still wearing my Birkenstocks year round.


Max always wants his picture taken, and because he's 6 it's compulsory that he smile like this.


My guys are crazy. Do NOT try this at home.


That's all folks!

Autumn Sun

After a week of rain and clouds and snotty noses all around, I wanted to see something fresh and sunny. These pictures are from last week, little did we know Ida was coming up to marry a nor'easter storm! I'm so glad we got out when we did though.
Noah enjoys the sunshine and warmth.

Noah and Jack have a chat with Bingo

My little girlfriends came over for a makeover. We painted nails and they did their make-up.

Even Bingo took time to catch a tan.

Plenty of Vitamin D was to be had.



Not angels, just sitting between me and and sun.



Max gets up close and personal.
