Seems like the latest thing when you live on 5 acres is to have a dirt bike.
Lincoln wasn't always willing to share his dirt bike with Violet so Jamie shopped around until he found a good deal on a used bike. Now Violet has her own ride and can keep up with Lincoln and the neighborhood kids.
When Michael moved into his new apartment (back in February), he asked if I would make him a new afghan to match his new furniture.
Creating your own design isn't as easy as you might think. This is my third attempt at getting something I liked and completed.
Michael had to do a little cheesy posing to get this selfie to commemorate the pandemic. Now he wants a second one in case he has company! I need to get the creative juices flowing.
Trish and I find time to go to dinner every once in awhile. Tonight's choice was Salty Iguana, one of our favorites.
I took a selfie of us and didn't realize the photo bomb from the guy behind us. We laughed so hard I was afraid the wait staff was going to throw us out plus the fact we'd been sitting their for a couple of hours. Oh the things you see when you get out of the house!
Three months ago, Lincoln was riding a bicycle with training wheels.
Today he's zipping around the yard riding a dirt bike or as he likes to call it, his motorcycle. I love that he's cautious and always wears his helmet but the boots make me laugh. He wears them because he can get them on the fastest!
I think it's in a grandmother blood to spoil their grandchildren with toys and candy. I'm no different. Because of the mask order in stores, I decided to let the kids pick a toy from Amazon.
Violet chose a new doll which didn't come on the expected date and she couldn't sleep worrying about her delivery. Luckily it came the next day. Meet Avery, her newest addition to her doll collection.
Lincoln got a remote control car and Hazel got a Leap Frog book. If I don't stop this, I'm going to run out of ideas for Christmas!
Usually when I need a few chores done around the house that I can't do myself, Jamie adjusts his busy schedule to accommodate me. You wouldn't believe how many people are vying for that number 1 spot.
What I thought was going to be big projects turned into much smaller projects. As a thank you, we tried a new Mexican place, Los Cabos, because I thought Salty Iguana was closed for lunch. By the way, it wasn't and I'm so sorry I didn't check before we left because Los Cabos was not that good. Time to start a new list!
Today was my usual hair color appointment. Instead of just a color and a trim, I decided on a new haircut.
Nicole (my stylist) cut 5 inches off the back and about an inch off the front. The after picture makes my hair look much longer in the back but I must have head my head back because it's the same length all the way around. Now I can enjoy my new hairdo alone in my home all by myself!
