I forgot…

March 4th, 2017

One big symptom of MS is brain fog. You know when you walk into a room and can’t remember why? That sums me up on a daily basis. That word that just on the tip of your tongue? It might as well be in China some days. If I told you I was going to do something and I haven’t, I don’t get offended when you ask again. I know I forget, it’s not a secret. Just like the fact that I was going to post daily this month and already forgot the second day. That sums up a huge part of my life, I forgot.

Speaking of other things I forgot – Here are just a few photos I meant to post on here

Sprinkler

July 24th, 2014

Sprinklers are awesome! They’re even better on a hot, sunny July afternoon.

Construction

July 22nd, 2014

“Those construction workers are the most awesomest ever!”

The street on the side of our house is getting re-done.  The one day we got to sit in our yard and admire their work.  In the middle there was a mountain of dirt.  On each side were huge holes deep enough for the workers to stand in without being seen.  There were tractors going back and forth.  It was amazing if you are a short boy!

Then we had to stop watching to bring Zoey to visit the vet for her annual check-up. All is well with Zoey. The boys did well entertaining themselves while we were there…

4th of July Fun

July 20th, 2014

Our happy family went north for the weekend of the 4th of July.

We had our usual cabin fun of course.

And the boys got their own fishing poles!  They loved it until a fish was actually caught.  Small steps.

Then there was the bonus festivities!

We started with the parade in town.  The boys found their headphones that were meant for fireworks but they work well for loud sirens too.

Then we went to Pede’s for fun before the big show.

Then we got on our boat and got to watch the fireworks from the lake. It was pretty cool!

As much as I am so over the snow, apparently not every one is:

Oldies but Goodies

February 9th, 2014

As I was getting a picture off the camera for something else I realized there were some from quite a while ago… oops.

So as promised, better late than never… here are some Christmas pictures that were stuck in the camera.

Of Monsters and Dogs

Also, Zoey is 6 today!  I remember the day we went and picked her.  There were a bunch of tiny puppies and Dustin wanted the one that went out on her own.  He wanted the curious one.  Well he got the curious one all right.  Six years later she is just as weird and just as curious.  She fits right in with this family.

Peter wanted to have a party with cake and balloons.  I am the bad dog-mom and opted to put pictures of dog cakes and a balloon on here.  Happy Birthday Zoey!

Peter got a camera…

March 20th, 2011

And he is an awesome photographer!  Here is a sampling of the very many pictures he’s taken so far.

Also, Peter got a haircut.  He looks so grown up now.  Along with his new do, he pulled out his puddle boots.  He found a really nice puddle to test them out in while Dustin was finishing up in the hair salon.

We went to Donna and Pop Pop’s for a St. Patty’s day dinner.  Peter was so excited that the patio was dry so he decided we should go out and play.  The path going out into the yard was just too much temptation though.

And to round things out, here is one of my sad efforts at taking a picture of the two boys together.
