Daddy was teaching Kali how to plant a garden tonight.

And then they rested and played some video games. Kali was pretty funny telling her dad that he just needed to practice a little more.

My Name is Kali

Kali and I were practicing her writing. She watched me write her name, and she followed me as I did it. This is how hers came out.

Fun Day at the Mall

Kali, Ashley, & I met up with Krissy, Jaden, & Rogan at the mall yesterday. There were many exhibits that the kids could go to and learn different things.

Singing in the Rain

Grandma Sandy was kind enough to call and ask to take Kali for the day. I jumped on that one real quick. Here is Kali patiently waiting to be picked up.

A Day at the Lake

Today we went up to Scott's mom and dad's house. The guys were splitting firewood and filling up the shed & part of the back of the pole building. I pitched in a bit so the work could get done quicker.
Kali & Emma made a bunch of bubbles for a while and then Kathy kept them busy most of the day. They went for a nice long walk and picked some rocks so they can use them in the stepping stones they will be making.


I stepped out of the box today and even through sticks for Buddy to fetch. Here he is trying to get the one that landed in the middle of the tree.

Mommy/Kali Night

Scott was away at camp, so Kali and I spent some time bumming around and visiting people. First stop was to Burger King so we could get a Sponge Bob toy (she never got it because she didn't eat and was being mean later on in the night).

Second stop, Webster school so she could play at the playground.

Third stop, mom and dad's house. They weren't there, so we headed to the Kositzky house and visited for a bit while we waited for Krissy to get home. Grandpa Dave was kind enough to take out the "little" car so Kali could tear up their yard for a little bit. We watched Nancy break the chair she was sitting on.....

Then off to the Gravelle's so Kali could play with Rogan for a bit...

Then home, a little bit of cartoons, and off to bed for Kali. Now I'm playing around on the computer, gonna watch some American Idol with no husband narration.... then off to bed.

Room Progress

Our room is getting there. Scott opened up the door between the living room and new room. It looks large standing in the living room and looking down into it. Here are some pictures.

Not quite sure what Scott has in mind for this top middle seam in the ceiling that isn't drywalled.

Can't wait until it is finished. Although, depending on Scott's work schedule, assuming he has a job.... It may stay like this until winter again. We'll just move furniture in and love it like that for a while.

Kali the Hard Worker

Kali was quite the helper today. We finally got another battery for the John Deere so she helped her dad haul wood back to the fire.

And hooray! We're going to have a mechanic in the family. She helped work on Scott's 4 wheeler so it will run beautifully for his trip out to LaBranche. He's going to take a little trip with Ross for the night tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Kali & Happy Easter Everyone!

We had Kali's birthday party this weekend and had about 30 people to the house for her celebration. Sunday, we went to my mom and dad's for Easter. Fun was had all weekend long.

Happy Anniversary To Us!

Today marks our 5th wonderful year of marriage. My sister Krissy was kind enough to watch Kali for a little while and we went out to supper. Came home, Scott built a fire, we stayed outside for a little while and came back in. Here are some pictures I tried with a new camera. Let me know how they look on your end.
