Good Find

Why has it taken so long for me to get to these books? To my children. Please check them out and see what they have to offer. Good stuff.


Waffle Cone Maker


I still love my waffle cone maker that I purchased at Liquidation World many years ago. Tonight I made a fresh batch and they were a hit with the kids that ate them. Good purchase.

A Perfect CDA Day March 6th 2010

With temperatures in the mid 50's we had a great day yesterday. We went to the park and the city was teaming with kids, dogs, jugglers and athletes. We are blessed to live in such a beautiful part of this country. CDA was definitely at its peak yesterday. Today was the same.

An Apple A Day





Last fall Tom and I picked several boxes full of apples from Joyce Dillman's apple orchard. The apples have been stored in our garage for the entire winter and they still taste great. Today I decided to do something with those beautiful apples. I ended up with unsweetened applesauce and one apple pie. I need to this for two more days in order to use up all the apples!!!

Family Home Evening

Now that we are empty nesters it is fun to get together with friends from church and have family home evening each Monday night. We have had great discussions, watched some DVD's and had delicious treats. I recommend this to all empty nesters in the world.
Today was beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Sunny and mild. This has been a superb winter in the northwest!!
I am sorry the Olympics are over. Tom and I both agreed that we felt sad that the games were over. How about that hockey game. Way to go team Canada. I was singing the Canadian national anthem all last night.

More Trip Photos






We have been back from our trip for almost 2 weeks now. We had a great time traveling all around the country visiting the kids and grandkids. Baby M is a little angel. I found her just like this in her crib after her nap. Jord and Rach are handling their busy schedules in a very organized way.
Cas and Pete are living in a very nice CA apartment. See pictures We also saw Pete play soccer one night.
At J and D's house we enjoyed being in the east coast snowstorm of 2010. We ate, talked, shoveled and enjoyed baby O. He was happy whenever he could play with his shovel and be outside in the snow. Just like his mom.
D made some yummy eggs and hot dogs over the wood stove. Thanks to their 4 wheel drive car we were able to make it to the airport and back to our snow free home.
