Set the sails and watch the wind. We're off to the high seas. Boomer loves the sailing life!

Odd

These are some of the oddest things in my life and I look at them every day! They all hold my smile in different ways. The Tomato is from the Nashville Tomato Festival which not only did I thoroughly enjoy but also thought it was one of the strangest events I had ever been too. The Grass Monkey was a Christmas present from Dan and he was panicked that I had killed the grass seed because it wasn't growing. (Since has been shattered by the Boomer guy!) The black cat is Gizmo and he started as a tiny tiny cat with almost no hair. He was probably the funniest looking cat ever and he has turned into this beautiful (but weird) adult cat. All of these are gracing my kitchen which keeps us from being in Good Housekeeping!

Boomer

Boomer is the new kitten in our household. He has already put scratches in the leather couch, broken the little ceramic monkey, and dug in the plants. We couldn't love him more! He has totally adjusted to the other cats and is already playing with Gizmo in hide and seek. He loves the tutoring kids and follows us around. He's a keeper!

A Paper Clip is my new Hero


We have had a big spring cold weather snap and snow in most areas. In our area we have had rain nonstop which is kind of exciting since we never get to experience this much rain. However, it gets pretty cold when your heat doesn't work! It only took us all day to figure out that the heat wasn't coming on in the house. We kept thinking it was because we had been outside and we were just cold.... nooooooo.... not it! After figuring out that we were eating nonstop to prepare for the cold we decided to investigate. Guess what... the thermostat wasn't working. Somehow we decided that it would work if we could fix the connections and new batteries. Woot... it's working but now we are afraid to touch it in case it will shut down again.

One Year

One year ago Grandpa died. Today my lilly bloomed one bloom. Pretty amazing.
