2nd post. Veggie Garden.

Ok, so this is when the lack of computer skills starts to shine through :) I figured out how to get a new page for my new posts but I can't figure out how to send the old pics with the old post and add new pics with the new posts :)
Either way I'm heading out for a bit and I'll have to figure out the picture situation later. It wont allow me to add any more to this page but I have seen other blogs that have different pics for different days. So it is possible :) I may have to check in with Robin my blog specialist later.

Pics after some much needed guidance. Its actually Easter now but I felt the need to back up to this page and add the pics. I think its called OCD :)

At Home Depot looking for some stuff.


Looking...


Looking...


Tired of looking... " I'm a tree!"


" I'm a bent tree!"


Helping...

Heavy


More pics to come...

Keener, everyone else is still recovering from shopping the day before Easter. It was a whole lot like Christmas shopping on the 24th of December minus the Christmas cheer.



Carrot seeds. Here's hoping Julia's thumb is greener than her mom's.


Little touch of wata


Help from mom for the blackberry bush, poor bush.


Ta Da.


Monica being coerced into helping. note the face.


Feeling a little less coerced...


Maybe not, note the face again. It's hard being 10.


Enough for one day, raspberry bush, blackberry bush and some carrots. Can ya see the snow in the background? Happy spring / Easter :)


Watching the Wizard of Oz. I believe the copy you bought Mon when she was tiny. She still has her Dorthy doll, shoes...


1st post of the day. Hey you two.

So today we made a veggie garden. Well we went to home depot bought some stuff and assembled a couple things. The rest is going to wait till tomorrow. So I'll add some pics for you. Hope your day is going well. Tomorrow the easter bunny comes, Tuesday's Mon's birthday, Next weekend is her party and we are having a two night sleep over at the Ramada as well. So lots of fun and exciting things to capture for you :)
Love you both.
PS. We have some snow coming down. I'm sure you must miss it when you are sitting there in all your sun, sand and surf :) So I'll add a pic with snow to cool you off.
Lots of love. Corinna

3rd post

I did it!

2nd post within an hour, a litte over eager

Yeah I know I just posted but I have some other things I wanted to share then I'll figure out how to get you some pics .
We have 3 new additions to the family. We thought Possum was a boy, he was on his way to be fixed because he was reaching his 1 year mark. Only to find out that he/she is pregnant. So pics of the new babes to come.
The girls also got their report cards yesterday. Not that we didn't already know that they were brilliant but their report cards are just a bit more evidents to verify the well known fact. I'll add a pic of them with they're reports, they're pretty proud.
I got into a good book last night so was a little less alert then the average single parent who generally sleeps with one eye open. Julia came flying into my room at what seemed like 5 am but was probably more like 7 since I didn't go to sleep till 4, up and ready to roll. Usually her skipping a breath, rolling over... would be enough to wake me. She said she was heading to Malibu. I believe to visit you and said Mon was going with her. I lay there for a minute trying to connect the dots and listening to the two of them. I finally got up and made my way to the bathroom. They were in the tub together which they haven't done for years chatting it up and apparently at the beach with you. I would have taken a pic but they wouldn't have been very impressed they were in the tub and they are 8 and nearly 11 they have their rules.
Now lets see if I can get some pics to go with this commentary on here.
Love you.

My first post, wish me luck.

Hey Stew and Courtney.
I recently cyber bumped into someone and fell into his blog (www.eabhathekiwi.blogspot.com) in case you're interested. You know I'm not very computer savvy so playing on the computer is generally the last thing I'll do but his blog had such an impact on me, I felt an instant connection... I figured it could only aid in our trying to stay connected from so far away. We miss you terrible but I find myself overly excited about the possibility of feeling a little closer to you guys on a daily bases :) At least the plan is to do this daily even if its just to say hey. I have no idea how to add pics or video but I'm determined to make it happen. I have a well deserved 4 days off as long as I don't answer the phone :) So I will see what I can figure out in that amount of time. Off I go to try.
Love always Corinna.
Stew we have the camera out that you gave to Mon and we will use it to make our additions here. I have a feeling once Jul and Mon get a look at this, it will be a permanent fixture around one or the others necks :) I'll wait until I have this all figured out before I let them into the loop. They have no patients for my computer skills :)
