Hi Everyone,, we went to Howie's tonight for burgers. They gave me Disney Dollars. Tomorrow we are going to my BIL's for dinner with Oma & Opa. Cannot wait. Hope Bob is making his famous May Day Chicken. I always hear about it but am never around when he makes it.

I really like my GPS but have learned that if I am in a remote area to be careful if it looks like it wants to take me down a gravel road.

Our friends who live in Arbovale, WV had told us of a few folks who came down their lane because they said their GPS told them to. So,,,Carol and I set Rhonda to get us to a point in Va. Sure enough, it took us to their lane. Apparently it thinks one road is easily accessable from their road, but that is not so. One would need an off road vehicle to get over the mountain. I would agree that the GPS was starting to take us in the right direction, but when the road turned to gravel, I would get out and ask for directions instead of getting angry and throwing the GPS down. Some places are just not set up 100% with the 911 information.

OMG,,,,That is just too dear. :love::goodvibes:hug:
 
Tom - Once again you've done a marvelous job and a wonderful thing :thumbsup2

Tia - I'm sorry Terra was so upset, one day you'll have your house and she'll get her puppy. :hug:

I spent much of my day practicing my carpenter skills, I spent my "surprise" refund check from the doctor on some additions to Brandon's "fort", I put up the rock climbing wall myself, and my DD's boyfriend helped me put the swing beam up. DH was at work today so he didn't get to help, I think we did a pretty good job, I'm not done yet, I plan on adding a floor on the bottom and putting rails on three sides so that the fort will have a first floor.

Debbie you had a great day. I really love rose bushes and I know that your grandchildren will love the new additions to the playscape :thumbsup2 You did a great job.

Mother's Day started early her this year, my daughter's got me three new rose bushes for my flower bed, and my youngest spent the morning pulling out the old scraggly ones and planting the new ones,

The lavender one is my favorite,

She also picked up these Pink Gerbera Daisy's, part of the money raised from them go to Breast Cancer research,

Good Morning. We lost power last night when a heavy thunder storm blew through. The winds were something else. I thought my battery backup worked in my clock, but somehow it was about 20 minutes fast. Anyway I got up earlier then expected. Colby must have heard me because he found me within seconds :lmao: He made me a wonderful card. Nick was only a minute or two behind Colby. He also made me a card, but it was for a treasure hunt. I haven't done one of those in years and it was lots of fun. At the end of the hunt I found 2 packages. One was a new seat for my bicycle. My old one was a gel seat and it started to ooze from the elements. They also put my new van keys on my keyring and wrapped that up. I feel spoiled this year as I thought Chris getting the van done and then he and the boys cleaning the van was my present. I'm one lucky Mommy :love: Hunter also made me a card, but he gave it to me last night because he just couldn't wait ;)

There was no point in trying to go back to sleep & the kids are upstairs working on something for me. I hear cutting, tape, & lots of "shhhhsss":love:
 
Good morning everyone! Happy mothers day to all the moms!!

It is my dads birthday today as well, so my grandparents and parents are all going to be here to do a cook out later this afternoon
 
Bernadette welcome back, look forward to hearing about your trip!

Welcome home, Bernadette! :goodvibes

Thanks Janet,

I hit a root today while mowing the yard and bent the blade, you can see where I scalped the yard in front of the flower be before it finally died and we had to get a new blade. :sad2:

Debbie, Princess has almost that identical fort. I didn't know you could add things to it! Your flowers are beautiful! :)
Sorry about the mower.

Anne Marie - YAY for ADRs! :banana:

Happy Mother's Day, DDA!

I am celebrating my 7 lb. weight loss with DUNKIN' DONUTS! :cool1: And PF Chang's for dinner tonight.
