Something you Never Want to See...

This is what I discovered when I was cleaning house today. I put the trash in the garage and Luke takes it to the can when he gets home. My little Red Focus has been leaking small amounts of oil off and on for a while now...and we've just dealt with it. It hasn't been as bad because Luke has been driving it a lot. Well, today after finding this HUGE puddle, we may be looking for a new car. I sure do love my Focus though!

Some Great News!

I went to the dreaded ENT today to see how my left ear has been doing with the tube. It's officially been in there 1 year ago in June. I was nervous going in because a) I didn't want him to pull the tube out, and b) I didn't want to have a hole in my eardrum....b/c I've been there before and it wasn't fun! I ended up getting great news.....my ear is completely healed and the tube is in the ear canal...so eventually it will just fall out on its own! Praise God!! I asked him about the constant popping I am having and he said, "Well you're just not right in the head." I told him that my husband, family, and friends already knew that! ha! He told me it was just from having ear surgeries and I would have to deal with the pressure being off in my head. Oh well...if that's all he had to say I'm so thankful! Thank You Jesus for small everyday miracles!

On Saturday Luke and I went to the Class of '99 10 Year Reunion. We had a blast! Going to a small school like SCA, meant that you were close to a lot of the graduating classes, not just your own. Since each class had such a small number, that meant you knew everyone! Jennifer Ladd Harris did a WONDERFUL job getting the cookout together. We had burgers, hot dogs, chips, beans, and all the fixings. We got to look at old yearbooks and scrapbooks and talk about old times. It was neat seeing everybodies kids! It was a great afternoon....a little hot, but we made it! Even Mrs. Harris came to visit....she was always one of my favorites! It was a great time!

The WHOLE set!!!

For those of you who don't knit...well you won't be as excited as I am right now. For those of you that DO knit....you REALLY, REALLY, need some of these fantastic needles. It's like you are knitting through butter! Luke surprised me today with the whole set....I have needle sizes from 4-17...woo hoo! I'm off here to go knit on my shawl!!! Thanks Luke for being a wonderful hubby!

My Lily

Christylee came over for lunch yesterday. We made a Honey Mustard Chicken Pizza, Salad, and Hershey Pie for dessert. Actually, we only made the pizza, and cut up the veggies, the rest was store bought! We had a good time visiting as usual and I couldn't resist taking pics of my Lily...whose already walking!!! Where has the time gone!

Fond Memories, Old Bowl

My PaPa, Grandma, and Me

My Banana Pudding

I'm having a friend over for lunch today and decided to make a Banana Pudding. I have fond memories of making Banana Puddings with my Grandma. We lived across the street from Grandma and PaPa growing up and I would always go see Grandma during the day. We usually baked some kind of sweetness because my PaPa loved his sweets! I'm not sure how many Banana Puddings were made in this bowl...but it sure is special to me. Just having Luke get it out of the cabinet last night brought back a flood of memories. Grandma had a special red knife that she would let me use to cut up the bananas. We always used Nilla Wafers...that was a must. Cool Whip and Vanilla pudding had to be the staple too! I loved my Grandma so much! Even though she's now in heaven, I still have this bowl...and better yet the memories to go along with it!

We had ScrapMania this past Friday night at church. What a great time we had! Our theme this time was a Pizza Crop. We were able to pig out on Pizza, Salad, and desserts! We had about 18 in attendance and everyone was working hard. Kayla even got to go with me this time...it was a lot of fun!
