A Completed Project

We did it! Found a chain..some nails, a little pounding, birdseed and its done!

And after hanging the bird house up and not recieving any birds from it for an entire day im realizing its a bird "house" not a feeder...haha oh well, looks like we will just have to find a tree to hang her up in!
Im just excited that its up and not sitting on the porch anymore! I wish i could get more motivated to complete some other things around here!

Click on "Next Blog"

I decided this morning as Miss Molly was watching Einstein and eating some breakfast to click on "Next Blog" and see the world of bloggers out there. I came across some very strange bloggers, bloggers who dont type english so i couldnt read what they were saying...and an interesting blogger who like myself is a photographer. Now i photograph children, but she photographs birds..and i have to say she was amazing at it. It made me think about the bird house that sits vacant on my front porch in a corner. A customer of my husband gave it to us a while back and there it has sat! Hold on I will go take a picture to show you.....

pretty nice right? Not bad....whats it lacking though? Oh yeah that would be the BIRDS DUH! okay okay so we were going to spend the day in our pj's (Molly and Me) but now i guess we are going to make it our mission to find something to hang this awesome bird house with and head to Target (my favorite place to be other then home) and pick up some bird seed. Maybe in a few days or weeks or whenever i will have some pictures of birds for you all to check out?? Who knows right?

BBQ Before Memorial Day

So we had the pleasure of some new friends hanging out at our house for a "Pre-Memorial Day" BBQ. It was full of food and full of fun. The usual gang was there too, Tara and Logan, Annemarie and the kids, and even some kids that we didnt know....sorry:(no pictures of them) So I took tons of photos but heres a few to remember it by. I didnt get any pictures of the food..I was late with pulling the Camera out...oh well, who needs pictures of food anyway?

*kids playing ball

*whats tim doing??

im not sure how she caught that with her eyes closed! Nor was i ready for that picture since i cut her ankles off...

*birdseye in the grass

*My favorite-BIG BLUE EYES!

*T, posing with her puppies

*P, hiding from the camera

she didnt realize i was taking her picture

*Got ya P!

The "Men at Work"

The Babies Played Golf........

...........and there she is, tellin him how it is! Girls Rule!

awe, they shared so nicely

okay so my framing wasnt so good here...but its still cute!

Molly ended up with the ball...she doesnt share as well:)

Well thats it, took me forever to upload these!! So I think I got a good selection here...Now im hopping over to Tricia's Blog http://boutellefamilyzoo.blogspot.com to see if she posted any photos from the BBQ...The Blog is on!

The Ice Cream Truck! SWEET

So of course we heard the melody rolling down the street...and of course i was dying to get my camera out for this 1st experience for Molly. And yes, I asked the ice cream man to pose for a couple photos as he was going to be in the "memories" of Mollys first ice cream from the ice cream man. (Of course she is the schwan mans baby so i guess he really counts as the first ice cream man to give her ice cream, but you all get where im going with this)

Theres the ice cream "men" hehe

Daddy got his ice cream first...go figure?

Yup i made them pose...Im not sure what Tim was doing? And i have no clue who that little boy is??

TJ- "um, do you want me to open it for her? Or just let her eat the wrapper"

Spiderman..... Spiderman.....ya ya so there wasnt any "princess" ice cream.

she was loving it..i didnt love the clean up since the red is a dye that stains the skin...and no we didnt use white erasers to clean her up..hehe

Hes acting like he doesnt see me

And again, like im not there with my camera!

Poppy's Birthday Party

Happy Birthday Poppy!

he seriously blew out the candles in two breathes!

Monkey and T

"Emma" aka Emily...and Miss Molly

I did it! Nana posed with the grandkids! (only because she was sick of me trying to get her in the photo)

This is what happens when you tell me to decorate the cake...dont worry, im not quitting my day job.

Mowing the lawn

So this was TJ's fun over the weekend...So you see the steering wheel? Yup those are bicycle handle bars...little redneck ya think? Tim spent 25$ last summer on this lawn mower. HILARIOUS!

Look Mom no hands! (Im not sure thats safe)

Watch out for the tree T! (See the concentration)

And then he hit the concrete steps...and i was worried about the tree...funs over. (This is why we dont have a thousand dollar Lawn Mower)

Window Markers, who knew?

So instead of buying those Markers that only work on that "non-messy" paper haha...we also bought along with our finger paint, some paint/markers that you can color on the windows with. We have a large window in the living room that Molly loves to yell through because she can see all the cars and children out side. She had a great time, she also tried to color the dog...he wasnt having it though...poor Buster Brown.

"OutsideView"

See the blue? Yes she ate it...gross...ick

It was alot of fun...Tomorrow is back to work for 4 days..thats gross!

First time with paint

Today Molly had her first experience with "finger paint". I was a little disappointed at Walmart as I was searching for paint. Has anyone noticed that everything they make for kids now is mess free?? What the H is the point of that? If they don't make a mess then they didn't have fun! Its all marketed with Paint and Markers that only write on certain paper...whats so fun about that? Molly had a great time with finger paint....and she made a HUGE mess!
