A really good day....

Well, it was after a "stern" talking to the kids... all the fighting is making me batty.





Plus Psych is back which means Chilis chips and salsa is back which means sitting on the couch watching Psych and eating Chilis chips and salsa is back. I'm crazy with happiness. 
And it's been a really great evening.
Do you notice the table Steveo is sitting at?
We got clever. We couldn't afford a nice new Patio set so we used one of these:
It's a electical spool thingy. It was sitting on the side of the road with a free sign. Actually there were three so we took two.
I may paint it, I may not. Either way Stephen looks really cool sitting there reading and writing. Plus, there's a hole in the middle perfectly sized for an umbrella, which we may or may not one day get .
Tomorrow's the zoo and Camels Back hiking and Costco and nacho-movie night.
It'll be a very busy, fun-filled day.
We may even squeeze in a Target trip.

Looks like a pretty good table. We used to make rabbit hutches out of the "in the old days".

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
