Birthday Girl

K turned eleven this week.  We celebrated with a friend, K's godparents and cousin Bill at K's favorite restaurant.  The best part of the day was breakfast in bed!

One Fine Day

We finally have beautiful weather. On Saturday K had a friend over so I suggested that they go out and enjoy the weather. A little later I happened to look out my bathroom window and noticed they were outside enjoying the weather and a movie on K's portable DVD player.

Back Up Plan

K and I spent three days making Valentine cookies for her class.  We finally threw in the towel today and I was so glad that I had bought candy as a back up plan.  Puzzle cookies with edible paper valentines that are attached with corn syrup=one big sticky mess!

Who Let the Dogs Out?

While the rest of the world was getting ready for the Super Bowl we went to a dog show with our neighbors.  The kids had a great time checking out all of the different breeds of dogs.  It is amazing how many different kinds of beautiful dogs there are.  

It is hard to believe that the little neighbor who I used to babysit and help with his homework is now driving.  And he babysits for K and helps her with her homework.  Only one mishap at the dog show, he ran over a dog bone (I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried) and my neighbor's car got a flat tire.  The kids were happy because it meant that we got to spend extra time at the show while waiting for tire to be fixed.
