Kindergarten here we come...

Last night we went to Potter Gray's burger bash. Tucker had a complete blast. Part of me wanted him to be timid and really "need" me. But no luck. He was having so much fun meeting and greeting. I know he will have no problem adjusting to being one of "Ferstl's Friends" ( that's what his teacher calls them). Please pray for the easy transition for him as he starts his new school journey. Tomorrow is the BIG DAY. He is soooo excited that it is finally here.

so many changes

I think he might be one for the ladies!! :)
He likes to dress up in all of his toys, not just one thing at a time.

Well, I must say it has been a while. So much has gone on since Tucker and Trappers' birthday. Old Nannie is no longer with us. She found a new home at Britthaven at the end of May. She developed a light case of Pneumonia and had to be admitted to the hospital and then transferred to rehab. Since people with Alzheimer's do not adapt well, we thought it a good time to go ahead and allow her to transition. SOOO, I have had to go back to work. I am now through my first full week at Wendy's Corporation as the benefits administrator. I really enjoy the people I work with and it has been a real answered prayer that I would find a christian home away from home and I feel like I have. A big fat THANKS to Faye Martin who gave me the heads up on the position.



We have had one fatality -- Peter the bunny. He will be missed. I am sure that Billy is lonely.



Our House is FOR SALE if anyone knows anyone who might be interested you can send them our way. We are selling it by ourselves right now and hope to move somewhere in the Briarwood area so we will be close to Tucker's new school.



Weston and I took Tucker to Chicago a few weeks ago. It was a great little trip. We went to the science museum and to two Brewers games in Milwaukee. I will have to post on that separately some other timeb/c I have pictures that can be shared ( as soon as I figure out how to do that on the new camera I got while in Chicago).



Weston go to take a day trip to Texas and pick up our new Minivan. It was a great deal and we have been looking for a long time for another vehicle so here it is!! I am excited about that.



Hopefully, I will get back into the swing of posting now that things seems to be settled.

T5 T1

Well only a month late here are some pictures from Tuckers 5th birthday, And Trappers 1st. It was a "huntin" party. However there was not much huntin going on. We had planned for a paintball gun to allow the kids to shoot at a target of a deer and then they were going to walk back into the woods and look for wildlife, but it rained and x-treeme sports wouldn't allow the gun off the premises. So, we made do with a wagon ride and pizza. The highlight of the day was Tuck's new puppy, Katie( named after Katie Jennings at church). Enjoy the pics.


This is where we gave him his stuffed puppy first and then he got the real one.

















Sleeping Beauty



I find AJ all the time covered up in her Blue bobby. She looks so peaceful in her sleep. I wish she could stay that way forever....

FREE KITTENS!!

Well, Fat Albert, Funny Albert and Brownie White ( who is actually black and white) are now ready to leave. If anyone wants one please please contact me. I will be taking them on Saturday to the pound if they go unclaimed. I can send pictures but they are pretty black so they dont show up well. The only thing you can see if the blue eyes.
