411 on us


OK, OK, I know I haven't blogged in 3 months. Really, that's not like me. I like to keep my family informed and updated with loads of pics of the kids. I don't really have any excuses, except maybe that Phil is working full time and in school full time (masters degree.) I know, that's Phil, not me. It affects me. Big time. So, I'm eating breakfast while I blog today. Maybe the sunshine has inspired me (it's the 3rd sunny day we've had in all of May.) Or, maybe it's just my sister Mary prodding me to blog ;)
I have to say, I miss the sun. When I see it - EVERY - time I see it I woop and yell and sing "Here come the sun." The kids have started to do this too. I can't check the 10 day weather forecast very often because it just depresses me. Rain, and more rain. Anyway, enough of that. We are good here. Sam is the funniest right now. Most days he pretends he's a turtle. James talks a lot. And Lizzy is the same old Liz.
The other day (the 2nd sunny day in May) we had a picnic outside (Phil was at school.) We also got some of the snow that we froze from the deep freeze and played with it. It hit 70 degrees!
Here's some pics. I will try to be better at checking everyone's blogs, sorry I've been a little inattentive lately.

I know exactly how you feel about the sun. It is a rarity among these parts.

SO glad to see pics of the kids! They looks great as usual! I can't believe how much older every one looks! Amazing!!

We need to webcam more often. Miss you and the kids!

Man Sam is getting SOOO big and James looks so much like him too! We miss you and wish you were here enjoying the sun with us!

Good to hear from you...yeah, the sun's definitely been MIA. But, it must be even more drastic for you since you came from sunny AZ.

Everyone looks so grown up, baby James is not a baby any more. Miss you guys. I need me some gramma time

We don't realize how much we miss the sun until it actually comes out! And guess what....this week it's supposed to be out and up to 70 again! Woop!
