Let the Building Begin

I cannot believe that almost six months have gone by since we first signed papers for our house. They just poured the slab and the real nail-biting begins. We are all starting to get excited, because now it is a reality. We are finally going to have a home that we can paint, furnish, and re-model as we see fit. A big Happy Dance with a very nervous stomach.

Go SUNS!!!

Daniel and I at the Suns vs the Spurs game. Daniel is a sports nut and our deal is if he does better in school I will continue to get us tickets to sporting events. We showed our support of Steve Nash by wearing band-aids on our noses with his jersey number. He got head butted by one of the Spurs players in game 1 of the Playoffs with the Spurs. The Suns won that night, Game 2, 101 - 81!!!

Old Negatives

For Christmas I received a new Epson scanner. I have scanned a few items with it, but nothing I had originally wanted it for. That is until today. I inherited my Grandmother's slides and up until now had done nothing with them. Today I made my first attempts at restoring some family history. This is one of the pictures of my Norwegian Grandmother taken near her home in Minnesota. She was either in her late 40s or early 50s. I love how beautiful and stylish her clothing is. She was beautiful. Circa early 1950s.

Scary Kitty Morning

Our kitty, Tony the Tiger, showed signs of not feeling well yesterday. By 6 AM he was in a very bad way. We got him to the Vet at 7, and much to our relief, he only had a bladder infection which was fairly simple for them to take care of. So... $200 and a few hours later our kitty is home and doing much better!
