A New Dishwasher?!


Usually when Emma decides to help with the dishes, I start to hear the silverware jingle around as the spoons and forks go flying out of the dishwasher and onto the floor. But on this particular day, I heard the plastic bowls clanking around...you know the ones that go on the top shelf? I looked down and there she was, standing on the open dishwasher door throwing bowls out of the dishwasher! OK, so she's better at unloading than she is at loading, but I guess I can't be picky. At least she's willing to help!

This is dedicated to my Dad!


Dad,


You taught me how to plant and take care of flowers. You also taught me to love it! Thank you for always letting me help! I had the girls help me plant some pansies the other day. They each got to plant their own pot and they loved it. They beg every day to go out and water them. As soon as it quits dropping below freezing every night, maybe I can tackle the flower beds. Any suggestions for what to plant?

I Need Fabulous!!!!



If you've seen High School Musical 2, then you will understand the title. This happens to be one of Hannah's favorite songs. She sings, "I need Baaaabaluuuusssss!" So one day she was putting on a show for us and Matt said he would join her. So he put on the Cinderella shirt around his neck and then Hannah mumbled something as she was running into the other room. Matt said,"What did she say?" After I was done laughing, I said, "She said you need a clippy!" so she brought back a tiny hair clip and put it in Matt's hair. They then proceeded to dazzle us with their singing and dancing talents! (Unfortunately you can't see the clippy, but it was there!) What a great dad!
