Shannon's first track meet

She hates this picture. Please don't tell her you saw it here.
She jumped over all the hurtles and didn't knock down a single one.
It was freezing once the sun went away.
I think she had fun though.

What in the world??

We read that you can save your used egg shells, fill them with potting soil, plant seeds in them, and then transfer the plants (shells and all) to your garden in the spring.

We'll let you know if it works.

Happy Birthday Chase!

Thanks to all who made his birthday awesome! He loved it.

A picture is worth a thousand...thoughts

What do you think Gavin is thinking as he smiles (smirks) for this picture a couple of days ago?

"Mom....I can't believe you had a camera with you"

"You want me to sit here and smile while that giant needle is on its way to me??"

"Why couldn't they give me a more manly bib/napkin??"

"Maybe I can ask the dentist to give the Nitro to my mother."

Girl Scout Cookie Pushers

First time blogger...please be nice!

Just wanted to let you know about the crazy night in the Daryl and Tamera household. We sorted out 171 boxes of girl scout cookies! Congrats to my daughter on being the second place seller in her troup just behind the troup leader's daughter, of course.
