02-01 Veterans Memorial Park

We had a lovely 80 degree day today.  Seriously I'm not too happy about it.  It would be nice to have winter before heading into the 100 degree weather again.  But the nice day did not go to waste.  We started out at the Cedar Park Bark Park for Josey.  She isn't much of a dog when around other dogs, she turns into a chicken.  I didn't take any photos there but I pretty much had to pull and coax her around.  So we walked across the parking lot to the Veterans Memorial.  Haven't been over there to check it out until today.  Pretty cool. We walked the sidewalk that circles the memorial all the way to the top of the hill.  Took a stop near the top for the photo.  Wish my phone took better pictures.


I tried to get a nice shot of them but all Mic wanted to do was get away from her brother.

01-30 Potato Night

Every Monday night for the past many years, not sure exactly how long, Monday night has been potato night.  I love Monday night because I don't have to fret over the big question, "What's for supper?"  Gabriel's favorite food is potatoes. Mic...not so much.  On Monday nights she eats chicken or hot dogs.  I tried to get her to eat them at the age of 2 but she wasn't having any of it.  So, on Monday nights I fix baked potatoes in the oven or, to get them done faster, I cook them in my Pampered Chef Baker in the microwave.  The boys add cheese, sour cream, and ham to the top of their potato. Sometimes I do the same but other times I'll do chili and cheese instead.  Tonight I added a can of  Campbell's Fiesta Nacho Cheese to the chili. Yum!

Walked on the Brushy Creek Trail today.  Stopped by the big water fall.  The kids like it over there. Here is Josey.

01-27 Lego Construction


Brian is working on two Lego models of his grandparents businesses from the 50s & 60s.  He's having "fun" working off of black and white photos to make colorful models. =)
He did make a lime green grocery store model but he thought he heard his Grandpa groaning from the grave, so he is making another in more "appropriate colors".

01-25 Computer Troubles

Sadly, this is where I spent my day. I did get away to do some school work with Michaela but here is where I sat.  I can't network the computers so everyone can use the printer. Internet Explorer began to crash while Google Chrome worked fine.  Then on top of it all Avast! security wouldn't work either.  It is now bed time. Avast! works. Internet Explorer seems to be working at the moment. And the network will have to wait for another day. Very tempted to hire a geek. Wonder how much they cost. Unless some kind soul out of the kindness of their heart would like to come help. ;-)
