What a week!!!

Haven't posted since last week so thought I should at least say something or allot of nothing.

It has been a very busy week but a wonderful week. The weather has been wonderful of which I have extremely enjoyed. Went for walks I think almost everyday but one. My van is clean inside and out. I love getting a clean van...even the oil is now clean :).

One day Marge and I worked on her photo albums...that is fun to look back and see how the kids have grown in just two years. There was one picture that I just marveled at, my girls were probably around the ages of 2 1/2 and then Samantha would be under 1 someplace in this picture. They were both sitting on Marge's couch in Gregory, they were so round faced it was cute. Emily most certianly looked like a toddlor and Sammy still was babyish looking. I said I wished I could reach through and hold them just as they were in that picture. The picture album we are working on is in 2007 which is the year that Harry pasted away so there are lot of memories in those pictures. We spent allot time with Marge that year and it has change much. We still spend allot of time together. We did allot together this week...I mentioned to Marge that we sure spent allot of time together this week and thought it was because the weather was so nice. She thinks we inspire each other when we work together in getting things done.I do very much enjoy the relationship I have with my mother-in-law. Well I know I have enjoyed this week very much. It was even more wonderful when I know I don't have to go to North Platte to the District Court as a juror. Please pray I don't have to go the next week, Feb 15-20, that is the week that is Samantha's and Great Grandma Blanche's Birthday. I don't want to miss their birthdays. I am hoping to have a dinner in their honor on their birthday the 20th. Grandma doesn't know about it or that my brother is coming home for it. So this month is busy busy busy. But I wouldn't want it any other way. I love my family and do enjoy serving them.

I am hoping to do a post on Samantha since it is her birthday in a few week. I want to post some pictures of her in the three years that she has been with us, so stay tuned. :)

Sounds like a wonderful week! I was able to get 2 whole pages done in Tayler's book!! Yippee!! I can't believe it!! I always tell Jason, 'Don't you wish we could bottle the kids up at certain ages and take them out to remember them'. Must be every Mother's dream to 'relive' their growing up years.

I'll pray you don't have to go to North Platte.

Hey that would be a good idea...how big of a bottle would I need? Do you have the recipe?
