Kiwi

Believe it or not, this kiwi was picked at the end of November and refrigerated. We are still eating them and they are delicious. It seems to go in streaks, we will eat some and then quit for awhile. The kids seem to get sores in their mouths if they eat too many at once. Thanks Jennie and Debbie for getting these kiwi to us!

Countdown Completed for Lorissa

Lorissa got her braces off today. Her teeth look "Hollywood Perfect" according to her orthodontist Dr. Jay Perko, and I agree. She wore her rubberbands as ordered and completed her treatment in 21 months. I hope to get a picture posted soon.

One Countdown Done!

Janine arrived home on Thursday evening, so one countdown is complete. She had a good trip from Lookout Mountain , GA to Yerington, NV from Monday to Wednesday. We picked her up from Yerington on Thursday. Lots of miles put in by Janine this week!

Countdown

We have a couple of countdowns going, these numbers are from Thursday 4/24.

Family Game Night

a We played some Scrabble games the last couple of nights. Keith won this game. I believe there are some words on there like "pib" that are not actual words, but they went unchallenged. This was a real close one!

More Bird Eggs

We have this wreath on the front door: we can change the little wooden cutout according to the holidays and seasons. The birds thought this was a good spot for one of their nests. I thought I heard a lot of birds twittering by the front door a while back. Now i don't hear the birds as much; I will have to see if they are really sitting on this nest. So watch out as you approach the front door.

Earth Day

The kids were so impressed because I took care of recycling a bunch of bottles and newspaper on Earth Day. They were afraid that all the green people would be lined up at the recycling center, but we were the only ones there at the time, and the place was not overflowing with recyclables.
