Yo-Yo-Penguins For Christmas!

Yo! Beth! Look! It's Pat, Beth, Kori and Kristin! Wootie!

babies grow so fast!

this is my baby girl, who was married in september. Time passes so quickly, when we are not looking and not prepared. Marching on, heading down a path of it's own, seemingly one day at a time. Finding something special in each and every day is hard, but looking back, thinking about the non-special things that happen, make it unbeleavable that time passed so quickly! Cherrish each day as it is so special, and the present it is ment to be.

Hug them often, and see the growth, even the smallest of measures, add up to many happy memories of time gone bye...swiftly passing before our eyes...ENJOY LIFE

dying eggs

chocolate bunnies, jelly beans, and bright colored eggs, just a few of the preparations going on around this home. this saturday the oldest daughter and her friend are hosting an easter egg hunt. I am excited to have it here at the new house, with a huge yard, and many trees....planning and making decorations, filling plastic eggs and mini baskets...praying for nice weather, even thou this is Wisconsin!

scales...lol

TO ALL MY DEAREST FRIENDS I'M SO GLAD I FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS!





The correct way to weigh yourself:

First birthday

Lazy jammy days, and BALLOON-filled birthday days are always fun! It's hard to beleave the baby girl is one year old now....she walks and talks....waves and kisses....growing in leeps and bounds. I am very happy being her caretaker, and being her OMA! At her party in my home, her Grandma was calling her to her, when she walked right past her and came to me! She doesn't see that grandma very often, and was a little frightened of all the people here! But all in all it was a wonderful day, cept that opa didn't get home in time for the party....but oma's surprised worked out well! I offered to keep babygirl over night, and i am glad i did! Opa really had a blast playing with her both that night and the next morning! Breakfast was delicious, opa's pancakes and eggs, and enjoyed fully!
When mamma came to pick her up, she looked well rested (being pregnant, thats hard to do) and enjoyed seeing opa having a great time with big girl. I must start calling her my "big girl", as the baby should be here around the end of May, and she will be the baby girl then! Yes, she is having another girl, hurray!!!! I seem partial to girls....which is just my personal opinion, they are easier to raise! lol i know i will get some different opinions on that subject!!!!

But today is a happy day...just feeling fine here...and i hope all is well with you and yours. Smile...make someones day brighter!

my three girls!

Kristin 26 yrs old

love my girls! i am a lucky mom/oma

weird weather and stuff

The weatherman was saying warm termps, but good gosh, this is just was too weird! We have had piles of snow here, and cold temps (outside was colder then a fridge!) and today it's like WET everywhere, snow melting fast! I can see the flood warnings in the very near future, just weird for Feburary in Wisconsin!

Like the new Pig? I found this for the hubbies birthday, it says "retirement fund" on the suitcase he's carring, lol it was funny, considering he has this other piggy bank, holds ALL his change and it's about five times larger then this guy! hubby got my joke! ;)
happy 50 th old-man-of-mine!

p.s. sighsssssssss he went back to work today, after 1 week vacation,stayed home, relaxed, but i do miss him already, shhh don't tell him i like having him under-foot and bugging me these days! Jade loves her OPA!
