OK, I really thought (and hoped) it was going to be Brooke voted off this week…..good grief, she can sing ok enough, a little too bland for me, but can she please STOP all the POUTING!! Week after week, she stands there with a teary-eyed pout like a spoiled 6-year-old (and believe me, I’m quite familiar with that look) as the judges have their say. But as it turns out…

Before and After.
Well, I guess now that our house is for sale, I won’t be entering any home improvement contests after all. I may regret that someday, but I just can’t handle ONE MORE THING on my to-do list at this point. So, over the next few days I’ll post before and after pics of my house. I’ll start with the entry and stairs, before:And after:And here’s the front of our house,…

Remembering some of our favorite moments…This is how we told the world that Baby A…

HiLaRiouS.
I don’t know how I stumbled upon this great blog, but I laughed out loud at most of it. If, like me, you grew up at church, going on the choir tour where the bus broke down, singing a heartfelt ‘Friends are Friends Forever,’ while swaying back and forth, hugging your male friends from the side, disguising a big ‘ole gossip fest as a ‘prayer request,’ etc., etc.,….you’ll completely ‘get’…

Baby A’s First Puppy Ears
KB decided this morning that Baby A needed her hair fixed! Don’t let her sassy attitude in these pictures fool you…..she was NOT happy about big sis and mommy restricting the movement of her precious hair, and threw a HUGE fit about it. She will NOT wear a bow on top of her head, ’cause it interferes with her being able to twirl her hair with one hand while sucking…

A 6-Year-Old’s List of Must-Haves for Our Next House.

I asked KB to make a list of the things she wanted for our next house, and here it is. 🙂 This is just SO her (note her #1 most important thing for our new house)! It may not be MY taste, exactly, but I’ll do my best to…

Barbie Suffers Tragic Accident Yesterday.
The nude body of our beloved friend Barbie was recovered today, along with a small fishing boat, after an apparent drowning. Barbie’s connection to the capsized boat was unclear. Foul play was suspected. A suspect was quickly apprehended and questioned regarding both incidents. The suspect only had these few words to say about the matter: “No no, *Baby A*, that not nice.” Then later, “Barbie bath. *Baby A* mess.” The…

*FiNaLLy………LaNDSCaPiNG!!!*
Whew…..we’re tired! We’ve spent the past two days digging and pruning and setting out plants, in preparation for the Azalea Trail starting this weekend!! Well, actually, I have to admit I’m not nearly as tired as BF and his friend Paul; I had childcare duty today, which makes landscaping on a semi-busy street semi-IMPOSSIBLE….so I had to leave most of the work to them today. Its going to require at…
