Competing With Bees

Back at work this week. Things are a little slow and I'm okay with that.

Beth takes an art class on Wednesdays and last week she came home with a cake. Yep, a real cake! When she said she had a cake, I asked her if she had painted it but nope. A real one, with eggs and flour and frosting! I guess everyone got to mix their own ingredients, then someone took the cakes, went and baked them (they don't have an oven on site) and brought them back for everyone to take home! What an amazing amount of work!

 


Diana bought a new car. It was a big decision but she finally did it! This thing has a sun roof, heated seats, side mirror defrost... it's gorgeous!

 
 
 
 
I babysat Allie on Saturday and it was cold and rainy for most of the day here. Of course. It IS Seattle after all. :) So we stayed in and made forts, worked on our reading and played with bubbles!
 


 
 
 
Today I was able to get outside and work in the yard a little. I cut back some blackberry bushes and started to pull some weeds when I could hear these huge bees. They were black and yellow bumblebees and were so big! I was pulling weeds around some bluebonnets and I certainly wasn't gonna compete with them so I let them have the flowers! I ended up pulling out a chair and just sat on the patio enjoying my backyard.
 
 
I hope you all have an opportunity to enjoy some flowers this week!

It's Been a Week?!

A week?!

I knew it had been a while since I was on here, I didn't realize it had been a whole week. Things have been busier than usual and I just haven't had the time to sit down at this computer. Can anyone else relate? :)

Work - crazy. Extra hours. Physical work. Love it. Grateful to be working.

Chuck - work is crazy for him too. At home he's cleaning out the garage. Looking forward to our road trip!

Beth - bad attitude lately. Poor choices. Gaining weight. Excited about a special Prom!

Diana - discouraged about not hearing from publishers. Planning a trip to London this winter.

Ryan and Sharaya - praying they give Ryan more hours at work. Enjoying their new car!

Allison - not behaving. Kicking, talking back. Loves to play in her pool!

That's about it from here. I'm headed to church to help paint our preschool rooms. I have a few posts in my head that I hope to put 'on paper' in a few days!
