Blog Blog Blog

I've neglected my blog! I decided to make this entry my "random" entry. Lots of little things.
I took Jacob snow tubing after Christmas. We went up to Jonas Ridge. We had great conversations on the way up there. I don't get a lot of one on one time with him these days. After watching the brief safety movie we set out for our first ever tubing experience. We hooked up to the tube lift then waited our turn to zip down the mountain. We were able to tie our tubes together for the trip down the hill. It was really fast! After the second run Jacob decided he had enough of tubing. I finally figured out that he was a little scared of the lift. So....I had to carry both tubes up the hill. It was exhausting. We tubed for about an hour and a half. Lots of fun.



Yesterday was super windy. After dropping Brady off at school, I get home to find our recycling all over the place. I'm all sweaty from going to the Y and a little embarrassed to be seen by my neighbors. Well, I had to suck it up and clean up the neighborhood. Our newspapers were flying through the air and beer cans were clanging down the street. After rustling up all of our recycling, I casually looked around to make sure no one saw me. I didn't hear any laughter, but you never know.

Also, we had the top of one of our really tall trees snap off late yesterday afternoon. The boys and I were playing a game at the kitchen table. We heard a loud CRACK followed by an even louder BOOM! We ran out to the deck to see the damage. The top just snapped off and it came withing 3 feet of the house. No damage to our house, retaining wall, or landscaping. Just lots of firewood to chop!!


I will try not to neglect the blog anymore!

So, do I need to alter the tree in the painting then?? ;¬}

Kat, sometimes Jacob looks so like Gumps as a little boy.

He does. I remember a picture from G'ma O'Donnell's house of Gumps that looks just like Jacob.

Yes...I will cut out one of the trees! Kidding! No altering needed!

Just put some masking tap over where the top of the tree used to be.

I have some grade school pics of Tom that have that same smile. Gene pools, huh?
