Blog design

Trying my hand at blog design using the free templates that are available. Thanks to Gretchen and her family blog that I found the idea on it, I thought I would give it a try. Now mind you, I have only a smidgen of Irish in me, I still love the background, so I went with it. Hopefully we will get a little of that Irish luck our way, as we could sure use it these days. On top of everything else going on in our lives, every time my mom uses the washer a stream of water goes from under it, across to the drain. Figure that out! And we think our tv is going everyday when I turn it on, I never know if the picture will stop what ever it seems to be doing lately.

They finally came and installed the new glass in our windows, only been waiting since Nov. (was hoping for the tax deduct.) , but can't help the nasty weather we have had. The dining room picture window is great we can now get a clear view across the street, oh maybe we didn't care to. But clear glass is nice we just need to look at our yard and the cars that go by no farther. The family room windows, all 5 were replaced, they were really bad. Terrific view of the backyard now, no cloudy days in the family room ever again. Although due to the southern exposure they are tinted with low-e.

Braxton came by for a quick play date, mom and dad had their tax appt tonite. So we played with the trains, checked out some of the daycare toys, read some books, watched parts of a couple videos and ate 2 different dinners. And of course had to have some treats. Then Mom and Dad came back, they had stopped for a quick dinner (with out Braxton). Something they don't get to do much of lately due to Mom working 7 days. Then they went home, but not before he had to borrow a video to take home. His thing is ooooooooh grandma, pleeeeeeese grandma. How do you refuse that, with those big beautiful begging eyes he has.
