Goings on...

I know, it's been a LONG time....since I posted last. This has been a wonderful week for us. We had company and more company and good times and fellowship. Here is a sampling of our dinner menu. :-) We had a ham dinner with all the trimmings and then this YUMMY apple danish cheesecake. (thanks taste of home!) Sunday was our special mtg, so here are the kiddos...once again!! :-)

Oh and I almost forgot to mention the most important thing...! :-) We have our snowmobile up and running (finally) and it snowed (again) today. So, let it come and let us ride! :-)

Too Much Fun

How's that go...can't have too much fun??? I think this was for mom as much as for kid...what a blast this was and sledding for hours. He taaalllkkkedddd me into it...:-) ha. No, it was great snowman weather and we are getting a bunch more this weekend! yay!!!

Here they come...

Here is the second birthday of the month, the big number 1 for H!!! She had a wonderful little party with family and friends and of course, lots of girly toys. :-) Here's a few pics of the goods (the loot, as we say at our house). Of course, big brother wanted to play with it all first...to show her how, you know?...! :-) The quilt is from Grammie, the boots are from one Auntie and Uncle and the little toy house is from the other Auntie and Uncle and the digital fishy tank is from mommy and daddy.

Get ready

Here come the birthdays...No it's not K's yet...he's just practicing on daddy's candle. It took him a while to figure out the music was coming FROM the candle!!! :-) H's birthday is this Sunday. We plan for a big shindig Friday night. Some pictures should be forthcoming from that...! :-) Later...

Snowpeople

It's been a nonnewsy week here. We just had the usual goings on...nothing picture-worthy. Until today!

We had almost a foot of snow over the last day and night. Here are a few pics, but most of all...look at the snowman and woman we have raised!!

Turkey, Potatoes, Pumpkin Pie, etc...

This was the meal we just feasted on yesterday. Yes, it's enough to make my tummy growl again looking at it all. It was so yummy, we had to eat it all again for supper. Even saved some for Friday night to go with the pizza party too! :-) The turkey was the best part. It came out of the oven so well cooked, when they transferred it to the cutting board, the legs stayed on the pan!! We had a legless Tom! :-) The pies were pumpkin, eggnog pumpkin, chocolate cream, cherry, raspberry and apple...yum! Don't think I will need to eat all of next week!

Love this snow

Here's our back yard after a nice snow shower all day long. Guess we'll be praying for a bit more and then fire up those snowmachines!! :-)

Sunny Day

This is my little sunshine on a day of fog and rain. Ain't she the cutest?? I was just snapping a pic, but cute enough to be her 1 year pic. She is 11 1/2 months... Now to work on getting brother to sit still...! :-)

Snow!

See those tiny bits of white coming down...yup, we had snow!!! The first this year. Let's hope it comes early and lots of it. We want to go snowmobiling this year... :-)

Tea drinker

And this is another beautiful day in the life of Maine. My crazy son has to sample everything I eat day in and day out. This happens to be my "getting ready for the day" tea. Looks like he's ready to take on the world!!

The Maine Family

Hi Folks. This seems to be the new way of letting folks know how ya' are when you are too busy to write letters, never mind email. I think it might just be convenient for us. We have a great but busy lifestyle, so for those who want to be nosy and find out how our life is doing without actually talking to me..... :-) or for those who are just plain better at keeping in touch with others than I am, here ya' go. I will do my best to update. Later.
