God's Cute Creatures!

I thought I would post some picture of our pets from the past and present!
This is one of my favorite pictures of my kitty Tiger! Isn't she a beauty?

This is my sister's cat Whitey. (I know terrible name.) The only name we could think up

at the time....

You know, birds always win at staring contests.....

A beautiful bunch of Sandhill Cranes that like to visit us occasionally. We were able to

hand feed them right in our yard! And no, they are not our pets! :o)

Abby our old Beagle!

A fresh batch of kittens! :o) That is Tiger and Whitey at the top.

Our old kitty who LOVED to play in my sisters doll house. As you can see.

Funny!

This was done by a good friend of my Mom's. She is a local artist around our area and she and her family are good friends of ours. She is one amazing artist. How cool is this???

She captured each one of us perfectly. This is our family if you do not know who it is! :o)

Tea Party Anyone?

Me, Lauren, and Rach having a VERY special tea party. Rachel (black scarf) is the one who puts these marvelous tea parties together. And let me tell you what, she makes wonderful tea. Yes I am 15 years old but who says I can't go to a tea party??? Tea parties are so elegant and feminine especially when you are at Rachel's tea party. You bet we dress up too! Who goes to a tea party without dresses and scarfs? I love spending time with my sisters this way, it is so much fun. One time we were having a tea party and we hear the door swing open hit the wall and in comes little kate running full speed, crashes into the "tea" table, knocks over the sugar dish, and spills a full cup of tea right on to poor Lauren. Rachel and I were laughing so hard we almost fell off our stools. Kate, or should I say godzilla baby sure knows how to crash a tea party!

Weird..... I know

I had a GOOD reason for doing this. Well I was making tuna sandwiches for the family. I started to chop yellow onions and that was it. MY EYES FELT LIKE THEY WERE ON FIRE! :o) There was a plastic bag in front of me and my Dad's sunglasses in front of me so I thought WHY NOT? My Mom takes one look and grabs the camera laughing the whole time. Sure I was being a GOOF but guess what, it WORKED!!!

If you do not have plastic baggies or sunglasses on hand put your onions in the freezer for 15 minutes. That works too. ;)

Oh my!

As I was playing "The Surrey with the Fringe On Top" from the musical "Oklahoma" on the piano, I suddenly hear a scribbling sound that is coming from what sounds like a pen. Holding my breath I look over and sure enough there is Kate with a blue marker coloring on the door and wall. I said CATHERINE No!! And she took off like a jack rabbit. Kate is a VERY well behaved baby and this was her very FIRST time coloring on the wall so I thought I would blog it.

PROOF!

Lauren's birthday is tomorrow and she is VERY excited about it! I am making her favorite Italian dish for her Birthday dinner and making a 3 tiered birthday cake! I don't know what we are doing tomorrow but I think we might go play mini golf! :o) Love you Lauren!

Happy Birthday!

My Beautiful Baby Sister!

My little Kate also known as (Lucy) my nick name for her, being SUCH a good mommy to her baby. She loves her babies! Isn't is amazing how mothering is put into babies at such a young age?!
Psalm 127: 3-5
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shamewhen he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
