Nearly 2 Months Later, and about 5 to go!





So here we stand! The first two pics are of a nearly disastrous occurrence - the fork lift got stuck and nearly went over backwards into our basement...not good. However, they were able to tow it out without any lawsuit to follow :-) Daddy O was happily taking pictures of the whole thing, just in case. The next pic is looking out our basement window from the media/game/ family room. The last is the side view of our garage. We're moving right along and should be done framing by the end of next week!

Happy Birthday A






Our tea party was just swell! We had a great time and A couldn't get enough of drinking pink lemonade out of a REAL teacup and using a REAL teapot! The company was marvelous and the food was delightful! What a wonderful afternoon.
I had a great time making the teapot cake and the girls loved that they could actually eat it. B wasn't phased at all, by the fact that he was out numbered - thankfully Poppy and Daddy stopped in for some man relief.
A's one and only promise throughout the past year and a half was to like eating ALL fruits and vegetables when she was 5! This was totally her idea and she stuck to it every evening for dinner. Well, needless to say, it didn't happen over night. She is still putting up a little fight to finish the last veggie, but she is getting better :-)
5 years! As every parent knows....WOW, how fast that went! What a blessing little A is!
