My sewing helper

I spend most of every day working in my craft room and this little guy is usually sitting in my lap as I work. He spends so much time watching what I do that he could probably do it on his own if I let him! Today, he crawled up on my desk so he could pick out some colors that he wanted me to use next. :)

Baby Dogwood

The dogwood tree that Lisa gave us when we had the miscarriage died when I brought it in the house for the winter... but I didn't give up on it. I took it back outside when the weather got warm enough and look what happened... lots of baby dogwood trees!! This fall, I am going to go plant it on our lot so it can get out of this pot.

Last day of Preschool!

Mammogram

My doctor told me to get a baseline mammogram done at my annual appointment last year. I had no desire to have it done, because I've only heard how awful they are. When he found out that I never went during my appt. this year, he had the nurse make the appointment for me. It wasn't bad at all!!! I can't believe I was too chicken to do it the past year!!

Bunnies!!

The twins friend, Cliff, bred his bunnies and got a litter of 5. All we have heard from the twins the last few weeks is WE WANT BUNNIES!!
