Behind!

Once again - I'm way behind on blogging. No excuses - just other priorities. I'll have to do some catching up:)

Things here have been going fairly well - if fairly wet. We have had lots of rain in the last week and 2 power outages. The first one lasted 14 hours, and finally tipped Mitch over the edge into buying a generator. Hooray! The last one only lasted 8 hours - but we were happing "generating" our own power - so didn't faze us in the least.

Course, boys and their toys - Mitch couldn't have a regular ole off the shelf generator - he had to have a Honda generator. Judging from the price - they are the Ferrari of generators. I do like it though, it is very quite, light and portable. Also I guess it generates clean power - so I could power the computer with it if I needed to.

The kids did really well in their school conferences. All of them got good grades. Emma is ready to read, according to her teacher, so her and a few other students will be starting on reading - and will have different homework than the other kids. She is so excited - and so am I.

We got the kids' school pictures back - they all turned out good.

Look at that big smile on Brett's face - he is such a cheerful child, and even got a cheerfulness award at school.
Braeden thinks this is his best school photo ever - it is pretty good


Been busy working on rolodex cards for a swap that I'm in. I scraplifted design elements from a couple different ones that I saw on the web - I really like how they turned out. They are using the Cowgirl papers from Crate. I had to make 2 different sizes, so they are a bit different. The one with rounded corners is the standard size, and the other is 3 X 5.
