My Kids in 1997

In the midst of packing the kitchen....I found these placemats that the kids made with the kids of my daycare... I thought they were hilarious...


My kids did not think they were hilarious!!!!

Lexie and Kimber 5-25-2009

Finally Kimber broke Lexie down and was granted a request to sleep in her nice bed!

The puppies that we were puppy sitting for the weekend 5-25-2009

Ruger is Kimber's brother from this litter, and Remi is Ruger and Kimber's brother from the litter before. Remi and Ruger are Brian's dogs. They are adorable and we had a blast with them for the weekend. Remi loved the pool and kept Carly very busy all weekend. Ruger was Carly's love dog.... He got to sleep in Carly's room so she got pretty attached.

This is Ruger.... he's so sweet

This is Remi.....I think he is part fish!!!

Delta and Bella 5-25-2009

Kevin fixed up the couches so that they can't get on them anymore, so I ws feeling guilty that they were cold and gave them a blanket. This is how we found them this morning!

Nikki's New tattoo 5-22-2009

Well she did it.... I didn't think she would but she did.... She said it didn't hurt "that bad". But the next couple of days she was sore.... Of course Mr. Sensitive (Kevin) keeps telling ME that it is easy and doesn't hurt. So I guess my mind is pretty made up now that I won't be getting a tattoo anytime soon.... Still have the births of my children fresh in my mind and don't like self inflicting pain onto myself!!!! hehehehe



Lexie 5-22-2009
