These pictures are from greeting cards. The first one is one I wish I would have found in time to get for Bob for our Anniversary/Valentine's Day. It just strikes me funny for some reason. The second one is for "my main squeeze." Sometimes we do serious cards and sometimes funny. Obviously it's a funny year!


Today was our 10th anniversary! We celebrated by...having leftovers! We have two foster kids right now --8 mo and almost 2 years, both girls. We started to try to go out for supper but there were long lines every place so we decided to go out another time.

I had the privilege of taking the two kiddos to the doctor and getting shots for both of them. Joy, joy! I learned a lot today---like, there's a reason people lug those crazy car seats around--to have someplace to set a wiggly little one! Oh, and note to self: carry a diaper bag! Hello! Believe me it was a long two hour dr visit with no toys, bottle, diaper or pacifier! Some of us learn things best the hard way.
The girls are from the next county north of us and are here as an "emergency placement" for now. They are both pretty good kids. The 2 year old is learning to "use her words" instead of cry/fake cry to get what she wants and needs and is learning to use a spoon, apparently for the first time. The baby is content and calm most of the time...until the diaper starts to weigh as much as she does then she cries! They are both clingy and fussy tonight because of the shots at the doctor's office.

I'm impressed by my cousin Amanda's creativity for Valentine's Day--heart shaped brownies and heart shaped pizza! I swung by the butcher place and picked up some beef sticks Bob likes! I was actually quite pleased with the idea--he is so hard to buy for!
Well, dear friends, Happy Valentine's Day. Thanks for caring enough to stop by for a visit. Hugs to you!!! Don't pig out on the after-Valentine's-Day-special candy!!!

Hi! Happy Anniversary. I love the funny story of the Dr's visit with 2 kids. I too am learning (again) what it is like with 2. Hope everything goes well for all of you. Love, Julie

Happy Anniversary!!! I'll always remember your anniversary because you got married on my birthday!! I just wasn't sure how many years. We had long lines here too, but we still ate out, just not where we wanted to. Next year, we'll either go EARLY, or make reservations!!! (or just stay home!!) God bless you for what you are doing for those special and wonderful children. I admire you guys!!!!

Belated Happy Anniversary and Valentine's! Bless your heart--you need a diaper bag the size of New Jersey right now, sister. (And I would highly recommend a change of clothes for EVERYONE in the trunk of the car...)

How can i carry away windows xp from my laptop and reinstall windows Me -the laptops original software?
I be struck by recently bought a familiar laptop that is old. The mortal physically I had bought it from had installed windows xp on it, even for all that it from the word go came with windows Me. I be to eradicate the windows xp because it runs slows on the laptop because it takes up more honour than the windows Me would. Also I paucity to remove windows xp because it is an proscribed copy. So when I tried to run updates on it, windows would not install updates because the windows xp is not genuine. [URL=http://snuhexi.tripod.com]addidias mega bounce women's shoes[/URL]
