As promised I said I’d share pics of all the snow we ended up getting on Thursday, so here are a couple for ya…

And shocking, here are some photos from Friday evening and Saturday morning. Do you see any snow?? Crazy weather hey?!

And just so you all have a visual from my post the other day. Here is the little trailer, that Al gave us, hooked upto the trike. This pic is from yesterday. For most of the day I was pampered and treated so great and then to top of a wonderful mothers day we took the girls in the trailer and went for a jaunt through the forest and around. It was a lot of fun. I sure hope all you wonderful mothers had an amazing mothers day!

ttfn!

You know, the only thing WORSE than a snow storm in April… is a snow storm in MAY!!!!! AHHH! I was supposed to go for a haircut today, but it’s an hour away and there is no chance of me driving in this crap! When I took this picture this morning at 8 we had all of maybe an inch of snow, but now at 10:30 when I’m posting this we have almost 5 inches!! and it’s STILL coming down like crazy! what’s with mother nature this year, I seriously think she’s on some wacky drugs!! Hopefully at least this weekend is supposed to be nice, like 19 degrees nice, so I’m really, really looking forward to that. Unfortunately the earliest I can reschedule my hair appointment is NEXT Thursday, and I need it BAD.. anyhow, that’s a whole other story, so here’s my pic of the day…

If it keeps coming down the way it is I’ll post another picture later. Chow!

you’d never guess that I was a scrapbooker or wanna be photographer with a fancy dancy camera. Reason being I never remember to take the stinkin thing out. Needless to say there are no photos to go with this post.

Yesterday both the girls started t-ball and soccer. And they did so great! Madison was kickin’ butt at soccer, she scored her teams only two goals! Phoebe was doing well too but was more focused on sticking close to Madde than actually kicking the ball lol. It didn’t help either that as soon as we got to the field Phoebe laid down on the grass and broke out in wicked hives EVERYWHERE, poor kid, she gets her allergies from her dad. T-ball was a big hit for both of the girls. Once they caught the concept of dropping the bat and running after you hit the ball it was all good. All in all it was a lot of fun and I know they’re looking forward to it again next week, hopefully I’ll remember my camera next time.

On the weekend Darrens dad came down to visit. He brought us a little red honda trailer to pull behind the trike, so that’s exactly what we did. On Sunday we hooked up the trailer to the trike and the girls and I hopped into it while Darren took us all for a ride around the country. Along the way he just happened to find a few HUGE mud holes to drag us through and covered us in mud from head to toe. Madde said we all looked like little dalmatian dogs, which we totally did. So we decided to head back to the house and try and build a little cover for the trailer. We used some old road signs that Al gave us and we sewed them together with rope to make some walls and a roof for the little trailer and then we decided we’d see how well they worked so Darren drug us through the mud holes again. The little cover worked GREAT! The cover and the trailer were completely covered in mud and the girls and I were not. It was sure a lot of fun and a great way to spend a beautiful Sunday together. I can’t wait to do it again, funny how something like that sure brings out the big kid in you. And, yet again, I have no pictures of the event to share but I’ll try and grab some next time.

For those of you aka Julie, lol, that are waiting for the news we were going to share, well, you’re going to have to just wait a little bit longer. Don’t worry though, it’s nothing big like winning the lottery it’s just exciting to us and we want to share but not just yet :)   So keep checkin back. TTFN!
