I'm Baaack!

The past couple of months have flown by and been so full that I just simply didn't have time to blog. I thought about blogging and planned things in my head. And then I promptly dropped into bed and fell asleep.

The thing is, I missed blogging. I cannot believe what a wonderful tool this has been to record the daily happenings of our household!

Here is a sampling of what has been shaking around here:

*After hubby fixed my washing machine, it died again. A dramatic and sad death. The same day that our shiny new stainless steel fridge was delivered. On that same day my laptop monitor died and I had to be without it for some time while it was being repaired. So now I have a new, beautiful set. Ahh. I liked doing laundry before, but I never knew how much I would love to have steam!

*Our well pump broke...had that replaced.

*Lots and lots and lots and lots of homeschooling.

*I started doing daycare for my niece, Anika. She was here most weekdays in April and now I will have her part-time. (Love having a baby around...now I know what it would have been like if we would have had 7 kids!)

I might be doing some "catch-up" posts, but until then, here are a few pics! (If anyone is still reading this blog, that is.)

Micah's 3rd birthday



Spring sprang. Let the lunches on the deck commence.





Easter 2010. In each picture of Glory, I realized that she only had one leg showing. So we took this shot for fun.



We had a SURPRISE 55th birthday party for my mom.















Took a trip to Duluth to visit Aaron's grandma and his brother's family.








Mini birthday party in Duluth. Logan and Glory are both 5 now, bdays two days apart.

Glory's 5th birthday cupcakes. Does anyone else love ganache??
