technical difficulties

I tell you ever since our power surge a little over a week ago, things have been freaky. Our treadmill has died, (new power supply and usb ports for the computer). Now the internet has been freaky all day and I have spent more than 2 hours with our internet provider trying to fix it and if it happens again I may have a problem with our modem. But on a good note. I couldn't surf the web so I searched through the "pile" of photos that I have on my computer. I ran into a couple that I thought well I forgot about those....







What cuties. This tub time was when my sisters were in town. This is my adorable niece and L. Check out the monkey lips...ohhh it is almost enough to make me want to rush upstairs and kiss the sleeping kid. I will refrain.









Check out this innocent face. Who me??? mess and destruction? no it must be my older siblings! Look at my face and tell me you don't believe me! (look at the trail of mess, tazmanian devil that's who is at my house these days)

snow day

I will take it! I was so pleased to get a phone call from my friend saying that there was no school today due to the impending storm. Usually I am not to happy about this but today was different. We slept in, read books, played in snow, built gingerbread houses (graham cracker actually)and watched a movie...ahh the life. The snow hasn't stopped so I am glad we have power for now and food.




check out those ears! (He wouldn't let me fuss with his hat, thank goodness he had mittens on and couldn't pull it off) He only lasted a few minutes as he didn't like to be confined in all his gear. I can't seem to get a picture of him looking at the camera... but hey at least I got something. That is more than I can say for my oldest who ran away with his friends immediately.

computer issues

Well I would love to post more pictures but currently none of our USB ports are working. The power outtage on Monday did something to our computer, even though we have a surge protector and the computer was off, it killed the power supply (had to buy a new one)and we can't figure out why the USB ports aren't working. They are getting power and the computer registers that they are working but they don't sooo.... Justin ordered some other thing to try and help it. Until then I can't load anything onto my computer or print or scan. UGH! Thank goodness for my hubby who is handy with computers.
And because I really have a hard time not posting an image...

goodbye dear friend

Farewell Digital Rebel. We have had a wonderful relationship and you have taught me so much but you must move on to someone else who will love you. gNat (the 'gah' is silent) please take good care of her. Take lots of pictures and then I will know she went to a good home.

(Peen you are a nerd and that is why I posted this pic! If you want it deleted, well you will just have to "come over my house!")

five fat turkeys

"Five Fat Turkeys are we
We spent the night in the tree
When the cook came around
We couldn't be found
And that's why we're here you see!"

This is the song that M has been singing for days. Now we are all singing it and we feel like five fat turkeys after the yummy feast. I need a nap. We had a great Thanksgiving with our friends. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!
