May 8th

Well it's been a month since my last post.It's just been a really busy.

Where do I begin?

Let's start the list-

Birthdays:

Kate is now 20

Kye is now 9

Kellie is now 11

Kylene and Dillon- Still dating, he's over here about every other night.

The older ones have been going to the movies...

The kids received a new I-pad as a gift.

It's really neat.

Most of us are suffering from springtime allergies.

So those that can go outside are enjoying the great weather.

Easter- we had a really nice dinner

Mike is having a new cabinet made for my kitchen, it's

similar to the large white ones we had made but it is bigger with more glass.

When it arrives I'll post pictures.

Mike had a really nice carport built onto the garage

out back. It looks so nice.

Mike and Kevin started on a building fence out back and started

on the kids downstairs bathroom remodel.

Still sewing- Completed two more table runners and an apron.

I started a quilt last night.

( Ms.Rossi I'll show you everything when I see

you in a couple weeks :) )

As soon as school is over the girls will have free time

to learn to sew some fun projects.

They have pillow projects they want to start.

School is over in a few weeks, we look forward to

signing up for a summer bowling program next

month.

Still working on the "watermelon" afghan here and there. It's

almost done.

Then there is:

orthodontist appt.

Speech therapy

Physical therapy

Mother's Day-

I am a really lucky mom

to have such a wonderful husband and

a great bunch of kids. I love you guys.

Kate surprised me by bringing pancakes she

made me upstairs this morning.

Mike gave me a beautiful potted plant arrangement,

it had 2 of my mom's favorite flowering plants in

it. He knew that would make me happy.

I missed her today. A lot.
