Well it seems that I am not keeping this up to date very well lately. I guess more or less there is not much to tell. Life has been moving along pretty normal really. Sarah goes to school Daddy goes to work and Albert and I stay home with the dog and cat. The dog and cat are getting along quite well actually. Thomas still chases Emily but they play and pick on each other. I think Thomas is afraid of Emily actually. She scratched his nose pretty good and since he doesn't get to close. Anyway, this first picture is of Sarah and the class bear Bowie. Sarah got to bring him home for the weekend. She played doctor with him. I thought this was a really good picture of her so I had to share.
These next few pictures are of the chopping up of our tree. Yep we finally cut down the termite tree. The termites are gone and inside Albert find tons of fire ants. How wonderful right? We get rid of one and get another. But the tree is gone and Albert put some stuff to kill the ants. They are mostly gone. We just now have a stump in the middle of our patio. I guess one obstacle at a time. I told Albert our yard is getting worse instead of better and he keeps telling it's called 'under construction'. I suppose I am just impatient and want our yard and house to look better now and not later. Some day we will have this place looking better. Anyway Daddy's turn was first. He used a sledge hammer and one of those metal things that kind of look like an ax head. Albert calls a splitter thing. 
Then is was Albert's turn to try. He couldn't lift the 'big daddy hammer'. So he used an Albert sized one. He almost hit himself in the head a few times with that hammer.
Then it was Sarah's turn to try. She also used the little hammer. Daddy was the only one to be able to effectively use that sledge hammer. Yeah Mommy tried and failed too. I got it up over my head and swung even but I kept missing. 
So now I have a mess of saw dust and bits of bark and wood all over the place back there. But I am rid of the termite tree. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Well next we have what looks like Buzz lightyear but look closely and you will see it is none other than Albert. HEHE. He was saying what Buzz says on the Toy Story movie. I have no clue now what is was though. Some thing ending in and beyond. I can't remember the first part though.
So here is my newest blog entry. Quite late but here it is none the less. Easter is closing in very fast and I am not ready. I forgot to boil the eggs for tomorrow. The Easter bunny needs to get something for in the plastic eggs. We do have basket stuff though. So we are under way but have a ways to go yet. I will take pictures maybe a video and post them on here. I can't when though. I am slow sometimes at getting around to posting things. SPRING IS HERE. Yep it is here and under way. The leaves are starting to come out on the trees. Our yard is coming back to life. We have had to mow twice in the front and three times in the back. I planted pansies in the front flower bed. I have a million little morning glories coming up to grow in the fence but Albert doesn't want me to let those grow because the lizards like to take up residence in them along with the bees. So I am pulling them all. Well not all of them some I have transplanted in a pot and I hope to have them grow on a wire thing in the pot. We will see how that goes. Guess that's about all I have to say for now. Until next time Give some one a smile today!
