Dear Loving Hubby

I just want to give you an update on the fence. It has been 3 months and we still don't have a secure fence. I would like to let you know that you have about 10 weeks before I bring home a beautiful chocolate lab. I know how much you dislike having animals in the house, but if the fence isn't done the new pup will be spending time inside......getting lots of love, attention, and crate training. I do hope the fence makes progress between now and then.
Your loving wife.

This One Kills Me....

As much grief as Trevor gives me I love him to death.

He loves to tell me how mean and horrible I am to him, but when I am away for an extended period of time he is the ONE who will call me to check in with me. He wants to know when I will be home because he "misses" me. He doesn't tell me he misses me, but will tell me that he needs me to be home because he wants to be with me. A softie at heart he is....you gotta love it. And believe me I do!

It's Happened......

He doesn't want kisses and hugs anymore (at least not in front of his friends).
I have been waiting for it and was hoping it would take much longer than it did for this to occur. I just wonder how long it will be before his isn't "embarrassed" to get love from his mom in public.

Letterboxing in the USA

The boys and I discovered something in the Fall through one of their friends. It's called Letterboxing. There are 2 sites I go to when we decide we need to go on an adventure. Some of the clues are fairly easy, while others are very cryptic. We did this one over the Winter Break.

After reading the clue the boys went off to see if they could find the box.

The clue said something about a bridge........ and here it is. Now to find where it lies.

Oh, under the bridge. Trevor was able to find it no problem.

The contents of the box are a stamp and a note pad. We put our own stamp in the notebook and used the stamp from the letterbox to add to our notebook.

The person who planted this box made their own stamp. Very creative.

For those of you who are interested in Letterboxing you can go to these sites:
1. Letterboxing North America
2. Atlas Quest: A Letterboxing Community

Go on, take your kids out for an adventure and give it a try. It's like finding a hidden treasure.
