I'm Still Around

I haven't completely forgotten about my blog. :-) Our computer was down for a week. Lenny and I were about to lose our minds without our computer. He kept telling me that he could still play his Easy Link without the computer. After the first few days I think he finally realized that he couldn't. Anyway, thank you to Dominic's brother Robbie for fixing it for us...again.

The weekend before last the kids and I went to my mom's house for a visit. My sister and her kids were also there for the weekend. I'm sure my mom was so excited for us to be there with all six of her grandkids--four of them are four years old and younger. It gets pretty loud. What am I saying, it was always loud before the kids even came around. Aleah and Kiana are very good helpers with the little kids and I really don't have to do much at all with them around. I wish they could come and stay with me for a while.

Aleah and Kiana got me to do something that I've never done before--play Guitar Hero. I'm hooked! I had so much fun. They each have their own guitar so we were able to play against each other. Kiana just turned 10 and Aleah will be 12 this month and they both are so good at the game! I had a blast with them and they had to stay up Saturday night until 10 playing it with me because I didn't want to stop playing. Kristi and I also played against each other which was a lot of fun. Mom was laughing and said that it reminded her of when we were kids and we would play Atari and Nintendo. Before Kristi and I played I asked her if she was good at it. She said, "Yea, I can rock it." And she did. It was hilarious. Mom even gave it a try and she did good too.

This past weekend went by very fast because we had a lot going on. I'm finally able to get back on the computer and back to my blog. It feels so good to be back!

We still need to load the software for my camera so I won't have any pictures to post today.

From the Mouth of a Four Year Old

Lenny and I were walking down the stairs the other day. I was carrying both Brooke and Nathan. Lenny stopped in the middle of the stairs and I asked him to keep walking because the babies were heavy. He said, "I stopped because I thought Daisy was approaching me." Daisy did come to the bottom of the stairs and looked up. Lenny cracks me up with his choice of words. I know he learned that one from his Thomas shows.
