A relaxing Sunday afternoon

Last Sunday the field next to ours caught on fire when someone a few houses down was burning trash. The wind must have picked up something that was on fire and carried it to the dry grass, which easily caught on fire. Our neighbor came back and started trying to put it out with a bucket. It soon spread to our field. Finally, someone called the fire department. They came and quickly put it out. While the neighbor was trying to put out the fire, someone drove up our driveway and into our grass. At first we thought they were going to help put it out. But when I went out to ask the neighbor if we should call the fire department, they rolled down the car window and asked if I knew what was going on. Then they drove away. It was a much more eventful afternoon than we had planned.

A couple more Chirtsmas present photos....

...that were actually meant to go in the last post, but somehow that didn't happen.  *shrugs shoulders*

Kelsey using the new flex-eeze, much to Caitlyn's amusement.

Kelsey enjoying the new cat bed (just use your imagination to think how cute that would have been next to the other picture of the cats enjoying the new cat bed.)

OK, that's it... I'll try to move on to more timely occurrences now :).

Christmas presents :)

Yes, it's February, but here are some pictures of our family enjoying Christmas presents :0).

 What Keegan wanted most for Christmas was animals!  Any animals.  All animals.  She is a true animal lover.  She asked specifically for these frogs and (obviously) received them ;).  This was several days after Christmas.  I took the pic of her with the frogs, than she asked if she culd take some of the frogs themselves.  Later when I looked at the camera, there were over 20 picturs of the frogs, Bob and Tiny!  Lol.  That's a dedicated frog mommy :-).

Unfortunately, the cats are nearly asinterested in them as Keegan is.

So they now live in my china cabinet.  THAT'S a dedicated-to-Keegan mommy!



Caitlyn, naturally reading new books :).



The kitty cats like their cat bed.  They're so cute.



You can make some very cool things with these flat blocks.

See you soon :).

Body Language

Caitlyn and Keegan go to a weekly acting group.  Ther, they talk a lot about body language and how much it conveys.  Recently, they made up skits of arguements, then performed them with and without words.  I thught their body language was pretty expressive :).

"You did it!"

Humph

"I'll just call Mom, then!"

"Oh, look, how cute ;)."

"Oh, um, well, you can have it after all."
