WOW !!!  PTL !!  Our internet service is actually working at our house today !!!  We’re so excited !!

 

Abby LOVES to cook.  Here she is helping make a Birthday Cake for Grandpa.

 

 

 

She also helped make Ice Cream for Grandpa’s Birthday

 

 

Grandpa needed some help blowing out his candles

 

 

Abby also loves to play dress up.

Here are a few outfits she got from her Gallion Grandparents for her Birthday.

 

 

 

Andy & his Dad installed a new hot water heater in our bathroom.

Abby loved the house we made out of the box !!!

 

 

 

We had a great time celebrating Easter with Andy’s Parents.  It’s fun to have family around for such a special holiday.  Abby’s favorite part was the Easter Egg Hunt that Andy set up for her.  We decorated Easter Eggs on Saturday afternoon in preparation of the big event.

Our internet service still isn’t working in our new town.  So, we’re driving 45 min. back to our previous town to update our website & check e-mail.  Hopefully our internet service will start working better soon & we can keep you updated more often !!

 

We’ve had a great month of March.  Andy’s parents are here visiting with us for 4 weeks.

  We’re really enjoying having them around.  We celebrated Abby’s 2nd Birthday on March 14th,

so that was a lot of fun !!

 

Every year on Abby’s Birthday we take pictures with Buddy the bear to see how much she’s grown !

We took Abby to the lake for her Birthday.  She really enjoyed the slide !!

 

 

Abby, Grandma and Mommy spent one morning making cool-aid popsicles.  Abby loved them !

 

 

Grandma and Grandpa have helped us out so much with all of the projects that we still have left on our house !!  We sure have appreciated their help.

 

 

 

We thought this was a funny sight.  It looked like the bird was having a conversation with this cow.

Our internet service still isn’t much better, but we’ll try and keep you up to date a little more often with Abby pictures.   We found out that our internet problem isn’t country wide after all.  It’s localized to our town.  Andy’s going to go and talk to the people at the phone company some time this week to see if they can fix the problem.  In the mean time, we’re in the Capital, so I’ll try to update our webpage while we are here.  Abby’s been sick with a stomach bug, so we had to come into the Capital to take her to the Dr.  Hopefully she’ll get to feeling better real soon !!

 

 

Abby’s new favorite food . . . beets !!

 

 

King of the World !!  Andy playing around on the side of the road while we waited for some friends.

 

 

We don’t see camels very often, but there were a whole bunch of them on the road on our way home from the Lake last weekend.

Hello !!  It’s been a long time since we’ve posted on our website.  We’ve been having TONS of problems with our internet connection.  The two fiber optic undersea communication cables that were cut in the Mediterranean have really messed up our internet service.  We’ve been able to send and receive small e-mails, but we’re having a really hard time getting on web pages or receiving pictures, etc.  We’ll post some more pictures on our website once our internet connection speeds up.  Sorry for the delay !!
