Appliances

Our freezer went out last night. The fridge part is working but it is leaking water everywhere. So, hopefully I can find a cheap fridge somewhere and soon! My washer is also going out on me. It makes and awful sound when it is spinning and it is also leaking water out from the bottom of it. But, a fridge is more important so it will come first.

CLasses







I am teaching a couple of classes at Just 4 Keeps in May...aside from the usual calendar and Upperkutz classes. The first one is on May 2nd (National Scrapbook Day.) You can choose between a cat or dog board book, I will be using the new Bo Bunny pet line on them. I'll be teaching how to use your file or sander on it to give your edges a nice clean finish.

Then, on May 16th I will be teaching a class on making an explosion box. I will be using the Bo Bunny "It's My Party" paper line. If you haven't seen one of these explosion boxes you really need too come up to Just 4 Keeps and take a peek at it! It is really neat. It opens up and has lots of different places to put pictures and would make a cute birthday gift. It was a lot of fun making it and I know you would have a great time too!

Happy Easter! & Happy Birthdays




We dyed eggs yesterday afternoon. The kids (and myself) had fun doing them...we always do. The Easter Bunny stopped by and delivered a lot of little goodies for the kids. I'm a bad mom and didn't get any pictures other then the ones of dying eggs....oops! I tried getting one of Eddie playing with a plastic egg but he wouldn't sit still long enough.
Yesterday was my 35th birthday. I already got my present...Eddie. I spent the day at the ball field for Kenzie's games. They ended up with 2nd in the preseason tournament. After dying eggs Jim and I went to dinner and then made a trip to Target. It was overall a good day.
Today is Jim's 35th birthday. He got a game for the Wii and has been busy playing it most of the day. It's been a lazy day around here. I am fixing chicken and veggie lasagna for dinner...hope it's good! I am also making blue berry muffins instead of a cake...we like muffins better. I can't wait to have one!

Out of control

I just can't seem to get my house under control. I can clean and in just a few hours it is destroyed again. I can't keep up with it and I am starting to feel over whelmed with it all. A few weeks ago I went gungho and cleaned like a mad woman. I cleaned out all the kids rooms and freecycled so much stuff. It felt really good but now those rooms are trashed again. I just can't seem to stay on top of everything. I need to come up with a schedule for all the house work and stick to it!

Up!


Eddie's ears are up! The very tips are still "floppy" but they should go up soon. He is just so darn cute! Just wish we could get him to not bite so hard! He got Kayleigh good yesterday! I know it is all part of being a puppy but he doesn't seem to be improving at all in that area. He seems to be pretty much paper trained. We are keeping the puppy pad right by the back door so hopefully he will learn to go to the back door to go out.

T-Ball




Kayleigh's first t-ball game was last night. They lost but all the girls seemed to be having fun. Kayleigh played in right field and center field last night. Today she played center field and stood there as a ball went right by her. LOL She got to bat once last night and hit and got to first base. When she was at bat today she struck out. I think it was cause she was too close to the tee and also she keeps taking a step forward when she swings. She is having fun and that is all the matters!
