CROCS
Do you have tired, aching feet?
Get a pair of CROCS!
They are the world's ugliest shoes, but man o' man
do they do your feet right!

Our purple grapes.
These are the funniest grapes. We don't do a thing with them.
We don't water them, we don't trim them....
And yet, year after year they keep coming back!
We usually give them to friends who make wine out of them.
One year we did make home made jam out of them. It was delicious!
But, waaaaay to much work!! lol

Going for a walk with Grandma.
Tim, Landon and I were at Grandpa Al's showing
him Ole. Grandma Cleone, Grace and Jack were next door at
the Straws and came over. Landon decided to join them in the walk
back to Grandma's house. Gotta love small towns....

Landon's Blue Wall.
Landon has been wanting a blue wall in his room for a long time.
So, yesterday was the day!
(He was a little upset when I had to roll over all his hard work!)
We think it came out pretty good!

The momma bunny is taking good care of her babies.
She is keeping them covered with grass and pieces of her fur.
Their eyes are open and Tim said that they might just hop
away on their own in a week or so.
Poor Landon and Ole. They will just have to wait....

Baby Bunnies!!

Tim was cleaning out the weeds/grass in the dog kennel
to get it cleaned up for Ole's arrival later next week.
(Yes, we are getting a new puppy, but that's a whole 'nother story!)
(Our chocolate lab, Buster passed away last summer)
He uncovered/discovered a hole full of baby bunnies!!
We were hoping the momma bunny
(she is still here) would move them, but they are still there....
What to do? Any bunny experts out there???

Update* The momma bunny took care of the babies and they all hopped away
and lived happily ever after! :)

Love shows up in the funniest places....
One morning, one of my dc mom's drew a heart on the sidewalk.
While she was at work, her little boy colored it in.....
Ahhh....love.
