Camera Attack of Jack

Jack loves to take pictures. (Maybe he will be a photographer) But he likes to hold the camera so that the back of the lens is toward his face. I have showed him 100 times how to hold it- but he likes that dang lens to be right in his eye. This is the result.

I love to see his cute baby chubby cheeks and lips in them. Babies. Awww! I could just squish 'em! (in a good way- lol)

Annual Bonfire.

Every year we have a bonfire in the back lot of our house. The garden gets cleaned out and all old plants and tumbleweeds gets put on the pile. We usually save our Christmas tree (It usually stays in the backyard or side ward until March) and then we say goodbye to it and thank it for a nice Christmas. (not really- we just burn it- it all kinda started when we moved into our new house and we didn't ask anyone that first year if the garbage trucks would take our tree cuz rules are different for county than those of city- so instead- my dear hubby just kept it, it dried out and we lit it up)

The funny part is that we didn't have a fresh tree this year. Our first Christmas without one in this house- so our neighbors kept their fresh tree for us so we could continue with our tradition. (Thanks Moon Family) I know- we are knida dorks- but it is entertaining for the kids (and me).

Book Recommendation

At Last! One that isn't YA Sci fi. It was even made for adults. I know you were waiting for it.-Lol I laughed and I cried. It stirred a lot of emotions and I hugged my husband a little tighter. Definitely a good read!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Bridger went to preschool today and his mom forgot all about him wearing green. Not to worry though cuz he came home like this.

I think he makes a cute Leprechaun. (Thanks Miss Kori)

Hope your day is fun and festive!

What I have been working on.

We have been in our house for 4 years now. From the minute we moved in (literally) we started painting. We painted this huge wall in our living room a dark olive green. I have always liked it and we have always got compliments on it and the fact that it is our only wall with green on it in the living room. It compliments the wall paper nicely. But lately I have been feeling that it was so depressing. It as too dark and dreary. So I told my husband we were gonna paint it. The "we" quickly turned into "me" and I set ot to find the right color. I bought 4 sample cans of paint at Lowes. Finally I decided I wanted pretty much what we already had on the walls- only tons lighter. So I chose a light olive green.
No one else can tell it was even painted, but I can. It is creamier and screams of Spring now. I made some other changes too. I painted one of my windows a light blue in

stead of the dreary red that it used to be.

My B-ball Girl!

Carli had her last game of the season on Sat. I think she will miss it quite a lot. The weather has been nice and warm (for March) so the kids have been playing a lot outside. And summer is around the corner! Hope she makes it til next yr!!!
