Visiting little Ty on game day. He is a big eagles fan. He is getting so big. He just had his first day at day care/ pre-school. Such a big boy, and he's only 18 mos.


If a tree falls in your front yard and no one is there to hear it does it make noise?

We were expecting a friend and when he came to the front door he said, " You guys know you have a tree down in your front lawn...right?" Well we had no idea. There had been a lot of rain and the ground was soaked. We has a really strong wind come by and apparently knock down our 30 foot pine tree. We couldn't believe it missed both of our cars in the driveway and the mailbox. Amazingly enough we had the tree removed the very next day, a Sunday. We paid dearly for this speedy weekend service, but we both needed to get our cars out for work on Monday. Jason and I were not fond of this tree but we really miss it. We will be planting something in the spring. I think that will make a grand total of 10 trees we have planted since we moved in in 2006.

Doctor's Bag


My masterpiece is finally finished. This will be my new knitting bag.


It was very enjoyable to knit and quite a bear to put together. It is large enough to carry all of my knitting essentials and more...


The pattern came from the book Knit Two Together by Tracy Ullman and Mel Clark.
