The Twins were Back!


So these are one quick growing plant! I think they are "Bleeding Hearts". And they sprouted and flowered in 2 weeks! Amazing!

Ryan called me to look out the window this morning around 6:45. The twins were back! Alittle bit bigger and definitely more independent! Momma Moose let them wander all over the yard...which they did! WE ARE GOING TO BLAME THEM FOR RYAN BEING LATE FOR WORK! We miss YOU~~~Kelli Sue! Hugs to Michigan!

Happy Father's Day!



Chelsi and I were surrounded by MEN! How nice is that!?!?!?!
Wayne joined us for dinner and to watch the 5th game...which Magic's old team won! Yeah! Ryan had a great time with the burgers! Ryan prepared a humongous sweet potato for his dad and Kyle was excited that Mike shared! Chelsi baked snickerdoodles and I brought home "Baby Ruth Cream Cheese Brownies" from the ECW Bake Sale at church. Recipe follows:

1 16 ounce box brownie mix
4 2.1 ounce Baby Ruth Bars, chopped
1 8 ounce cream cheese, softened
1 egg
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Make brownies according to the box, but don't bake!
Mix cheese, egg, sugar, vanilla in small bowl!
Fold chopped bar into this mixture!
Spread brownie mix in 9x13 pan!
Spoon cheese mixture onto brownie mixture!
Swirl cheese mix into brownie mix~ be creative!
Bake 325 degrees for 35 minutes!
Oh Boy! You will love it!

Friday the 13th Crop!

Another amazing sunset!


Friday the 13th...Chelsi and I went to our first CROP! We were busy chatting, cutting, and glueing from 5 til 11! They served us a great dinner of BBQ pork and pasta salad. I worked on my May project and a LO from earlier, then I did a ton of hybried pages where I was just finishing them up. Chels worked really hard on a 8x8 book for Kyle. Fun to see Bridget, Ronalyn, Alison, and Susie~~~and to see what they were working on. What a deal!!!
