Super Rachel Zana's Spot

We're back from the cabin, and I have tons of pictures to share, but we have been graced by a surprise visit from our favorite Mayville friends (soon to be California friends), so it may be a few days before lengthy posts with pictures appear.  

Posting and picture taking has been a bit less than normal here this week, and will continue to be for the next few days.  My Grandma Edna passed away last Sunday, and our week has been filled with good memories of her, along with lots of arranging so that we…

Mr. Sneaky Pants and The Banana wanted to do some art projects this morning.  I said, "Sure!"  The Banana loves these sponge dot paints.  I had been looking at them in the craft store for months, and I finally just decided I'd purchase them.  Sarah is really enjoying them too,…

She's got all the parts!  I just love how she assembled them in Sunday School yesterday.

Auntie Dot sort of tricked Dr. Peds into letting us keep Brutus.  I wish you could have seen the faces of the kidlets (especially Sarah) when I told them that Brutus was going to live with us.  They were so happy.  So excited.   Brutus is a honey.  He loves…

The Banana was in great admiration of Auntie Amy and her accessories. When Grandma Kathy arrived on Wednesday evening, Mr. Sneaky Pants poked his head out the door and excitedly said, "I KNEW you were coming.  Now where is that Auntie Dot????"  Grandma had to explain she was arriving in…

It's been a busy week, and I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures from our company last weekend. Auntie Amy Texas, as we refer to her around here, since we have two Auntie Amy's, flew into Minnesota last week and stayed for two days before flying back to Texas.…

Mother's Day was a super duper busy day at our house.  We were up and running like usual on a Sunday morning to get everyone off to church.  Auntie Dot, Uncle Don and Gramma Kathy were able to stay and join us for our fun-filled day.  After church and Sunday…

Auntie Dot's puppy had to stay home this trip due to a case of wood ticks, a winter coat in the process of shedding and spring fever.  Never fear, however, Auntie Dot did not leave the kidlets hanging.  She packed up Brutus, the six-toed cat.  He's a well loved, perfectly…

Auntie Amy flew in from Texas on Wednesday and left this morning.  Auntie Dot and Uncle Don and Gramma Kathy came to see her (they're still here.)  Expect lots of pictures soon!  We've been having a terrific time playing tourist.
