Sisters
Posted by Vicky
There is nothing quite like having a great sister! I am blessed to have a twin sister. We have always been close. We live about two hours apart, but continue to stay close. I recently went to stay with her and her husband for a weekend. At least once a year we get together like that. We had a wonderful time! We always eat good and take a day to go shopping. We talk until our throats are dry. The time goes way to fast that is for sure. We've decided that we need to do this more often. I think it's a good plan. Labels: Family
Desktops
Posted by Vicky
Over the years we have owned several different computers. Now with having an online business I find it necessary to have a laptop as well as a desktop. I feel I can work faster on desktops. Laptops are a little bit harder to type on. They are convenient however. I can't imagine not having our computers. What did we do without them?

Mp3 players
Posted by Vicky
Throughout the years my husband has enjoyed exercising and running. He did some research on Mp3 players so he would have something to listen too while working out. He found that there are different options on the variety of brands. He can down load music and also store pictures and videos. They are quite the little unit. Labels: Technology

Labels: Grandchildren
Kaelyn and Emry had a great time playing with each other this past weekend. They are only just over 20 months old, but have become buddies. Kaelyn apparently didn't want to go to sleep Sunday night, wondering where everyone was. She had so many people around her during the weekend that she got used to the company. In the morning she was asking about Emry. How sweet is that?

Many of the neighbor kids are out playing tonight. Some are on bikes and some on skates. It is nice to see them having a good time in this nice weather. I remember when our kids were at that age and would play outside until dark. We have a park and the school area that they can play at also.

The Night Flies By
Posted by Vicky
Our evenings at home seem to fly by. It isn't that we don't get a lot of things done in the evening, but by the time we are finished we are ready to relax. Many times it will be 9 o'clock before we sit down and chill a bit before bed. Tonight would be great night to sit out on the deck and relax, but I have too many chores to get done. Maybe tomorrow night will be more relaxing.
Garage
Posted by Vicky
Bill has wanted to build a garage in our back yard for several years. I was never a big fan of this project until recently. I think I now want the garage more than Bill does. We have so much stuff in the single garage that could be stored in the new one. I told Bill we should start building soon. I think he was a bit surprised. Labels: Home

Just What I Needed
Posted by Vicky
When I got home from work I took a nap. It may have been short but it was just what I needed. I feel refreshed and ready to get some things done around the house. It is amazing how just a little sleep can make such a difference. Bill doesn't seem to need as much sleep. He just goes and goes.
Stretching Machine
Posted by Vicky
Bill came home from the YMCA the other day and told me about a machine they have that gives you a great stretch. He had been having some leg and back pain from a recent twisting of his back. This machine seems to be helping him stretch his back and hamstring areas. I plan on checking out this machine too the next time I go to the Y.

Faster Internet
Posted by Vicky
We recently signed up for a different internet provider. At first we had a terrible time with the internet dropping its signal. We called repeatedly and really didn't get satisfactory service. We bought a new wireless router which seemed to help. We are supposed to have faster internet with this company. When it works, I think that it is faster. Someone from their company is supposed to call us but then, that was to have been weeks ago. Not really happy with the service we have received from the new provider.

The I Believe Bunny Book Review
Posted by Vicky
I recently had the opportunity to review The I Believe Bunny book from Thomas Nelson Publishers and am so happy that I did! What I thought was so great about this book was that it helps to teach children to put their faith into action and how great the power of prayer really is! Nothing is impossible with God and this is a message which is clear throughout this precious story. I think it's a terrific message for a child of any age. In fact, I found it encouraging even as an adult!!
The pictures in this book are truly amazing! I know any young child would absolutely love the colors and the life it brings to the story. I am SO excited to be able to read this story to my two grandchildren and to have it for many years! It's one that will be enjoyed over and over again! Between the message, the rhyming in the story and the beautiful pictures...I definitely give this book 5 stars! Check it out if you haven't already...you won't be sorry you did!
