OH HAPPY DAY!!

After a loooooooooong three weeks and 1 day of anticipating the arrival of Kevin's National Dental Boards Examination score....we can breathe a sigh of relief! HE DID IT! He passed! Yay!!!! I am so proud of him. He worked so hard and studied many long hours and now we can put this part of dental school behind us and move onward and upward!! :-) Congrats babe, you're the best!

More Pretties Please!

As I was trying to do Alexa's hair, she kept finding more barrettes and saying "more" so we ended up with 5 barrettes in her hair this day and she wouldn't let me take them out. So that's how we went to the splashpark...pretties and all!!

A little something on the side...

I am taking a stab at my own little home business venture and making these cute little "binky buddies". Check out my link to the right to see more. If you're interested, I'm selling them for $6 a piece or 2 for $10. Let me know what you think!

A Bountiful Harvest...:-)

Okay...maybe NOT so bountiful!! We have once again tried growing tomato plants this year. Last year, if you remember, the squirrels got away with most of the fruits of our labors! This year, we decided to outsmart them and put the plants on the FRONT porch away from their home, aka the huge pine tree next to our balcony out back. Well, we immediately got ONE tomato which turned out beautifully...but then nothing. About a bazillion blossoms (yes, I counted them!!!) but no more fruit. We enjoyed some tasty sandwiches the night (July 8th) we picked this lone specimen. Anyways, I am happy to announce though that after a couple more weeks of just blossoms, we now have 3, yes THREE itty bitty tomatoes starting. We are quite thrilled...just call us Farmer Kevin and Farmer Collette!
