New Blog...Again!

I hope that you enjoy this piece of artwork done by Sarah Jane. She is really working hard in Kindergarten and they are practicing their numbers. In case you have not noticed--I have a new background again....I promise this one will be the last time for I really, really, really love this one! Aunt Violet helped me change to a new 3 column format instead of 2...so I decide to change everything. I hope that you like it I know I love it...even Craig checked it out and said he was digging it. I also think that all the pictures really "pop" out at you. Whether the pictures are color or black/white they really look smart on the black background. Thanks for putting up with me again Aunt Violet--you are a real trooper. I am learning alot from her--Aunt Violet is the "Queen of code"! Well signing off for the night--oh reminder to Dad don't forget to keep clicking on the ads--yes I am getting paid for them when people click on them...also the music playlist has been updated with new songs so if you do not like the openning song click on any of the songs at the bottom of the page and it will play on 1 click. Thanks for supporting my blog I feel it has really come a long way--happy reading--and keep those comments coming.

Happy 9th Birthday Hannah











Wow...Hannah turns 9! That means only 7 more years until she can try out for the Olympics! Hannah got so many nice things for her birthday...even her cousin Ryan gave his own money for a gift (A BIG THANKS TO RYAN). But her favorite gift would have to be her ipod nano--hot pink--girl power!! Uncle Todd set her up and she is already using it and loves that it can play movies on it. Well here are some pictures for you to enjoy. Stay warm--still pretty cold here in the northeast...but Nana Mertz said it was 62 in Hawaii...I told her I feel so sorry for her...NOT...meanwhile one of our days was -20 below. Enjoy this cold weather while we can...because soon it will be really hot and humid. Well Hannah --we are so very proud of you and you have really blossomed into a young lady.

Sarah Jane's 6th Birthday


Sarah Jane on her birthday.

Openning presents...

Cousin reading cards to S.J.


Sarah Jane had a great time at her birthday party. I made 2 homemade ice cream cakes and a "soccer ball" chocolate cake (which was lop-sided) but still tasted good. Everyone pretty much took the ice cream cake...especially the kids. She got some cool presents and even some much loved "Bobby Jack" monkey stuff. Sarah Jane loves Bobby Jack (which you can only get at Sears!)

Craig and I cannot believe our littlest turned 6...boy have the years really gone by so fast. Just seems like yesterday that she was born and WOW--having a mommy moment here! Anyway the party was a hit and all the kids had fun as the adults too.

We hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas spending time with family and friends. We love that time of year--I drive Craig nuts with all the lights (yes indeed I am Queen of Lights)...however this year I ran out of time--and did not put too many lights up for the outside. I once again packed up the Christmas things until next year. Happy New Year everyone!
