Kaylee's Birthday Party...




































We celebrated Kaylee's 2nd Birthday today. She had so much fun opening all the presents. Tudy brought some silly string and yes, us adults got into a silly string battle. The pictures did not really turn out but there are a couple that are pretty funny.
Hope everyone had a Happy Valentines day. Mark gave me a beautiful card and two pots of tulips. They are just gorgeous! He also cooked a delicious dinner for Peggy and I.
My nephew Matthew came over on Thursday to introduce his new beagle, Chloe to us. 
My kitty, Scrappy is not doing well at all. I am going to take him back to the vet on Monday and hopefully he will be ok. I have been feeding him with a syringe and taking him to the litter box and water bowl. I love my animals and just in the short time we have had Scrappy, I have gotten very attached to him.

Happy Birthday Kaylee!!!















Our baby girl turned 2 today. She does not have a clue as to what is going on, but she did like us singing to her and when her daddy gave her a very pretty pink and purple tricycle. She received a Birthday card today from Ms Betty and Lentz from our Church, and Aunt Ya Ya called this morning and sang to her and this afternoon Aunt Bee called and sang and talked to her. Grandma Jan also called to wish Kaylee a Happy Birthday. 
We are having a Birthday Party this Saturday so family can attend and share this special time with us. Tonight to celebrate after dinner, we had homemade chocolate cupcakes with whipped cream on top. Kaylee sure did enjoy that!
Kaylee has really started to like putting on socks and trying to get her pants and shoes on. We are going to have to work on the shirts.

Celebration with family...












Dylan's best friend Toni came for the weekend. They had a great time playing video games, drums, and going out back and cooking lil smokies on an open fire. 
Our new kitties seem to be making themselves at home. Libbi is just soooo loveable and loves to be held. Scrappy is the smallest and he likes to play and get into my plants. We are going to have to work on that! Gus and Sassy are getting use to having them here. Sassy has decided to after about thirteen years, to start sleeping with me. This has just happened since Tater passed away. Of course Gus has ALWAYS slept with me. They know not to mess with Mark because he will push them off the bed....meany!
I began my new position as secretary of the church board. We had our first meeting Sunday. I had no idea how much writing was involved! We have lots of ideas and thoughts on how to grow as a church. 
Last night we went to dinner at Mexico restaurant with Trudy, Dan, Michael, Matthew and his friend Kai, to celebrate Matthews 19th Birthday. We all had a nice time and Trudy brought Matthews favorite carrot cake that she bakes for him every year. 
Our precious little Kayleebug is going to be 2 on Wednesday. We are are to celebrate on Valentines Day. Peggy is coming down for weekend too! 
Here are some pics...

2 new kitties...






Since losing our precious Tater, we decided that we wanted to get a new kitty and anyone who knows me, knows I can't get just one. So needless to say, we are now the proud owners of "Libbi" and "Scrappy" Libbi is about 4.5 months old and Scrappy is about 8 weeks old. Jennifer, thank you sooooo much for helping me get my Scrappy today. I owe you a present now!

A terrible loss...




Our precious cat Tater was hit by a car and passed away. Dylan woke me up this morning to tell me that she was in the road. I do know that she did not suffer. When Mark gets home, we are going to bury Tater in the back yard. I am so sad about this. She was such a sweet and loving cat.
