COLD H2O!!!!

Does this water look warm to you? It is sparkly and stuff?!?! Sure it is warm!! NOT! It was a mind over matter moment FOR SURE but the Lakota's are brave warriors and jumped into the frigid waters!


Odie is brave warrior too!! He has been trying to convince us to get into the pool for weeks now!!


Although NOT Louisiana berries, they were YUMMY anyway! :o

Flying fun!

Spent the weekend at home with the Lakota Tribe!! We went to a work thing for me that was a total drag until we escaped to a downtown bar FULL of brewskis!! :)


Oh yes, then there is the other Lakota pastime ;) We are famous in Brazil! *heehee*

DONE!!

Hope everyone else is too!

Tick...tick....tick

Anyone hear that almost APRIL 15th alarm clock?? *heehee* Me either!!! Spent the weekend puttering (as Granny would say) in the yard, etc. We got a few things accomplished like mowing the grass and FINALLY sealing the storage cabinets in the garage. BUT the taxes.....eeewww...spent the whole weekend with the taxes-are-due voice on my shoulder yelling at me but I didn't listen!! :D I mean I still have 3 days, right??!!??

Pictures to share of the other kid who LOVES bubbles! :)

Sharing a bit of Spring!! :)

The weather this weekend---> SPECTACULAR!!!! Perfect time to share some shots of Spring in my yard!! Hope everyone is having a terrific time doing ANYTHING outside!! :) I LOVE IT!!

This hibiscus has been with me since grad school in Dallas a LONG time ago! Matt took this shot too!

Possibly the last hurrah for the miniature petunia!?!


Hey Jake! Thanks for the help getting my new baby into the pot! Check out the future lemons!! :) AND a teeny neon fly ;)


Hey Dad...Mom...whaddayathink? Is it dead? Or are those itty bitty leaves distal to the blooms a hope for life? Poor little abused avocado tree!

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!!

BIG HUGE HUGS & HAPPY WISHES go out today to the two most influential people in my life ;)....my best friends....[not to mention they are responsible for bringing me into this world].....MY PARENTS!!! Today is their wedding anniversary! I wish I could be there to celebrate!

Thanks Mom-->Thanks Dad-->For giving me such great memories growing up in a happy married home and for being such great friends now! I am very thankful to have such a good model to strive for in my own marriage! I love you both! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!

HAPPY EASTER!!

We had a fun surprise left by the McCoy clan--> an EASTER EGG HUNT!!! We spent time searching the house literally top to bottom following clues left hidden by our recent VERY TALL guests! It was lots of fun!! THANKS SO MUCH Jake, B & Andy!!

We had such a good time that we decided to pay it forward ;) and went to hide eggs in the yard of our new friends while they were off at Easter morning Mass!! The small ones had a wild time gathering secretly deposited eggs in their yard!

Hope everyone had a HAPPY HAPPY EASTER!!


The MYSTERIOUS note!! :)


Looks like I need to dust up here!! *heehee*

Odie was so excited! He finally figured out what we were running all around for!


Here is the loot (minus a few we will hopefully find one day *LOL*) and the beautiful lilies I got for Easter (pink tulips too--sorry I forgot to get a pic of them)!!
