Bread

Bread and Butter

I don't know what got into me but yesterday I made bread (wheat) all by myself!! Grandma didn't help. It actually turned out really good! I guess I didn't put the butter high enough when I was done sampling it because later Madie came to me and said "Taste mommy!!" I will post pic later.

Our Dog Buddy



I showed Little Luke this page and he said "Mom, put buddy on there!" He is our Dalmation - Boxer mix. He is a sweet dog and part of the family. Sorry buddy!

My Sailor












I talked to Luke today. It was nice to hear from him. He got to take a shower today... it was the first one in a month! Thanks goodness for baby wipes. I hope he gets another one before he gets home! Madie's birthday is coming up so he said that he bought her a princess dress in one of the markets. He seems to be doing well and counting the days to come home (even though they don't tell us when that will be). About a month ago he was awarded a coin for doing a good job. From what I can gather.. its kinda a bragging rights, collectible thing. Anyway it is an a recognition for a job well done.

Fun with the kids




Madie and I went for a walk and she had to stop and smell the flowers in the desert. Luke and I played catch when we got back. Crazy kid!!

Adding friends?

How do you add a friend list??

The Kids


Our kids are 8 and 2. Luke stays busy with school and Cub Scouts. He is getting soo big. Madie just stays busy! We have fun painting our nails and acting like princess. She introduces herself as Madie-Belle (Beauty and the Beast). We have our Blue and Gold dinner today so this will be a short one. I will post some pictures of it soon!
