So just to fit in a Kitten will put up with anything

Here we are the day we brought the kitten home, talking over what we should name her. Notice how KiKi keeps whacking her in the face? Princess KiKi is noticeably put out with the whole kitten thing. Well, this was the one and only time that the cat has let the kitten even remotely close to her without hissing or hitting at her. The kitten keeps stalking her and she keeps putting her in her place. By the way... we went generic on the kitten's name, it's K.C. just in case she turns out to be a he ;) It stands for Kitty Cat.

But old enough to know that, you can lead a dog to water...But you cant make it drink

I tried several times to get Sadie to drink water from the tap, with no luck. She couldn't stir up enough courage to get near the running water, even though Ellie was all into it. Here you can see she found an alternative, much later in the day. That is a lovely bird bath on the grounds of a castle in Manitou Springs.

But I know where to get a new brain if I ever loose mine

We took this picture while on the tour of the science department at the Academy. Can you see the human brain in the jar on the third shelf up? Who gave that one up?

But I've seen a talking horse!

This is Zowe doing her Howdy-Doody impression. Tell me what you think she might have said. Be creative and I'll judge them. The winner will get... a hand made card sent from me, to you, with LOVE. I'll give you a week, so get typing.

Yet "BEE-HIVING" Like I Do

Isn't this Awesome? Uncle Jack actually offered this to me. It is about a foot and a half or more tall, made by black hornets, and has been preserved from the elements for the past six years by Jack in his shed. I can't wait until we can go back to safely bring it home. I plan on restoring the leaves and putting it up in my house. What a treat!

But always loveing being with my young

This was taken on Monday March 17, 2008 on this day the kids did get a snow day for school, but there was only about two to three inches, that day. Not enough to play in. So we played indoors instead. This is our beautiful temple we built after playing Jenga ( I think that's how it's spelled).

yet going to play whenever I want to

I said I would post what we did when I picked my kids up early from school last Friday, well here's our adventure. We spent a bit of time building our snowman and then we went in the field behind our house for some more fun in the snow. Now this is winter living (just days before the first day of spring) LOL.

But I have seen a WEENR once!

That's right! the WEINERMOBILE came to town Feb. 24, 2008. This is one of a handful of the wienermobiles, each of which has unique license plates. It had stopped at our friendly neighborhood Walmart for a few hours. We were able to win a couple of wienie whistles for the kids and take some pictures with the giant hot dog RV. It was COOL or should I say HOT. So for now I will leave you with a song to play in you head. Do you know the words? ... "My bologna has a first name, it's O S C A R" , now it's your turn, you can do it. One line at a time please ;)

Yet Wise Enough To Chase "the right goose"

These are the Canadian Geese that come through during their migration. They can be seen flying in large clusters in there V patterns honking away. These shots were taken in the runoff canal right next door to the Goodwill store, just last week. I had to climb down an embankment to get this shot, I was about ten feet away when I took it. They seemed fine with my admirations. I gave them a bit of caution as I left, "look out for the hunters and fly high".

Inspector Willow checking for a trace of hair.

No such luck! Not a single hair to be found. Tracy, does that hurt?

Yet never too old to find JOY in the many personalities of "MY MAN"

Here we have a French guy (Looking a little bit tipsy to me), A proper Lady (Who might have just passed gas), and Bolo hat guy.


Let's not forget Gangsta Tracy. These were taken tonight, Feb. 6th.

And still know how to build a "human pyramid"

All giggles and laughter, two weeks ago (Jan. 18) when Willow had a last minute sleep over. Notice how I still have my tree up? No worries though, it's down now.

Do you see that spot on the picture? I get the feeling that the kids PaPa has been spending some time with us lately. Check out the one of us at the theater on Christmas day, on the bench the spot is next to NaNa. Neat huh?

but NEVER too old to get wet

Out of nowhere it was water fight time. We found several spray bottles to get each other with. While dad was busy doing some work, we lit out in laughter and a "little" bit of water. This time the girls ganged up against the boy, he was the best sport.Silly feet... notice my toe sticking out of the huge hole in my sock?
Storm... the great white hunter. Watch out he's going to get you!
Willow... blowing off the heat on her double pistols. See the third one hanging from her pocket? These were taken Wednesday, January 9, 2008.

But old enough to make my own mistakes

Did you see that? My mom wrote the word butt, instead of but, on the last title. It's a good thing she fixed it. Crazy mom. There are no BUTTS here anymore ;)
