I Do Not Like This!



LOOK

What I saw when I was watering my plants.



  He was nice enough to shed his skin

before he went under my house.

But where is he now?

UGH!

I do not like this!

He's Baaaaack....................................



Hubs is the cook.

He had knee surgery six weeks ago.
:(

He's recovered enough to start cooking again.


The Tilapia  was as good as it looks.

Ahhhhhhh.

He's back!

Precious Five Month Old Granddaughter



I mean seriously,

Is this not a CUTE face?



And even with a dirty face....

I could just eat her up!
Pray for our little A if you think of her.

She is going for some testing tomorrow for a possible milk allergy.

Oh how we love that precious baby girl.

My Cute EC and HER Cute Sayings



I love the toddler years.

And I love the things they say.
This is my oldest granddaughter, EC

She is 2 1/2.


She calls all fast food restaurants:

EC's Donalds.

Not McDonalds, EC'sDonalds.

She also says

"I can't listen"

When she means "I can't hear"

Seriously,

Don't you love the toddler years?

Not Quite Four...But Almost 12!!



I stay with some of the kids occasionally so their mommies can have some time together.

Last week was one of those times.

I love it....dearly love it!

I would rather blow bubbles and *march* in a parade than almost anything I can think of.

My niece's daughter is like a granddaughter to me.

She is almost four.

She wanted to make sure I knew what POLLEN was.

Here is our conversation last week when we were playing:

"Miss Angelove, Do you know what pollen is?"

"It's that yellow stuff that comes out of the sky. It gets on cars and picnic tables. It gets in my nose too and I start having allergy trouble. So if you hear me sneeze, it's the pollen"

Thank you sweet M! Pollen or not, Miss Angelove adores you!

There's Another Side To The Story

If a picture could talk

I think this would say

"I'd give it all away for you to be healthy."

I pray she is.

Congrats Phil!

Before and After



Months ago, I painted my fireplace brick.

This is the BEFORE!





This is the AFTER!



I'm going to add to the C's...

(Which is my last name initial.)

And eventually take down the canvas.

But, it's starting to take shape now.

And, I like it.

Rude!

Let's talk about rude for a minute.

Ok...here is how it went.
I was in line at the grocery store.

With ONE item in my hand.

One.

The man behind me had like a month's worth of groceries in his cart.
You know what happens next.

A cashier opened in the lane next to us.
This man whipped his huge cart of groceries right over in the new lane.

Now tell me.
Don't you think that is just.plain.rude.?

What are people thinking?
I tried to think of something tactful to say.

I Couldn't.
UGH!!

Shopping Cart Rage! 

Just. Plain. Rude.

A Day With The Nieces


K on the left. A on the right.

These two sisters are as different as night and day.

I asked them what their ideal school uniform would be.

This was A's *winter* school uniform:

Sweat pants. Sweat shirt. Converse tennis shoes. Messy hair that doesn't look like you spent a lot of time on it. 
A said, "I can't stand *fixed* hair."

This was K's *winter* uniform:

Jeans with no holes. A plain,solid colored shirt. Light colored, cute tennis shoes. Cute earrings. Neat hair that doesn't look like you just got out of bed. 
K said, "After all, you want to look nice when you go out in public."

Their *summer* uniforms were just as different.

Sweet Sweet sisters.

Sweet Sweet nieces.

We had a great time....even if our baskets didn't turn out good.:)


Love,  Miss Angelove

National Champions!!!!!!!!!

Duke Blue Devils!
National Champions!

The jello was made.
The appetizers were ready.





The baby came.






The toddlers came.













The big girls came.


The chicks and the ducks were here!


The family was here.


and we were all worn out....


But even without seeing Him, 
Jesus was in our home.

THIS was Easter.
