home







Well, we had a great week-end with the Kang's. Lots of work and fun. One thing I love about the Kang children is how much they like to be read to, I always get to read lots of books. Sarah got a steal on a bunch of Golden Books at a garage sale so it was a lot of reminiscing for me as I read books to them that I'd read to their mom . After working out in 95 degree weather we finally quit and drove to a nice little stream(river) and let the kids play in the water for awhile. Very relaxing and always fun to watch the kids play. We all ended up on one side of the stream and Chris on the other, so we were throwing rocks and trying to splash him. Surprised I could even get a rock across, I accidentally hit him in the ankle with one. I felt so bad, not a good mother-in-law move! Sorry, Chris!
So, my manly man helped Sarah get some projects done, they planted blue berry bushes,a couple fruit trees and made a strawberry pyramid. We mowed a couple lawns and just had fun hanging out.
Our goats weren't very well behaved while we were gone and got out a couple times.They're looking for something greener on the other side....called blackberry bushes.

    Thank you for coming! Around 7:30, Chloe remarked that you guys were probably already home, ate dinner and that Grandpa was probably home teaching.

 I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

 chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

all is well

My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
