Summer is here

Yay! Summer has arrived. With that the humidity is begining to move in and so its nice in a way not feel all dry. Im working most of the time through summer which is fine. Work is good. However we are working on putting up a fence around the back yard and landscapng the back yard to where we dont have to mow as much. We've planted our garden which will consist of Zucchini, Spaghetti squash (my fav) and tomatoes and peppers. Also plan on enjoying some nice flowers. I'll post pictures as the summer progresses. I plan to hopefully stay more in tune with this than last year. Ok, wish me luck with that.

January 2011

Well our winter this year hasnt been all that bad. We havent had so much snow that we are complaining but we have had enough to cover the ground a few times. The good thing about Kansas is that the temperatures do climb enough to melt whatever white stuff is there.
Besides that my husband lost his pet parrot of almost 8 years in January and it was the most heart breaking thing ever. I suppose now we will go and buy another one. Pets are such dear things to us and it is amazing just how close we get to each of them. I did manage to get a Chihuahua puppy in November and he is a little fiest of a dog.
Ive been doing some geneology research this month. I have been working on family things for a few years now. I take a break from time to time but have just recently started it up again. I think this year I will take a trip to DesMoines where I can do some more hands on research. Finding out about your family members can really help you learn about the lives they lived.
