Catch Up Time

I haven't done posts for awhile, so here is up has been going on.

We had several outings with our Billikens' friends, Jan and Bob this basket ball season.

We celebrated Nancy's birthday at our house this year.  We bought her a cart that she could use at the flea market.  She used it last weekend and she helped her to lean on it as she went up and down the hills. 

In February, my cousins got together at my Mother's house to exchange picture files.  We had a great time.  My cousin, Donna, found a "yearbook" my Mom put together as a kid and gave it back to her.  She said she had forgotten about it. 

We continue to contribute to Nancy's chicken eggs production.  I sell some of them at work and give her all my food scraps the chickens love.  In return, I get all the eggs we can eat around here.  Some of the eggs are exceptionally big.  On the left is a large egg, on the right is an extra large egg.  You cannot buy any better eggs than Nancy's eggs.  No steroids or antibiotics are ever given to the chickens.  They get lots of fresh water, fresh food (plus their chicken food) and exercise.  They are the best tasting eggs I've ever eaten.

I found 3 great deals!  I bought coats for Lanie, Mckinely and Grant for next winter.  I couldn't find one in Jackson's size or he would have gotten one, also.  So 3 out of 4 ain't bad!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Instead of going to a parade or going to the St. Charles County Caucus, I babysat for my g-girl, Lanie.  It stormed for several hours and we even had to hunt up lights because the electric was off for almost 2 hours.
Later we made chocolate chip cookies.  Lanie had been sick all week and must be feeling better because she ate non-stop and asked to go to bed at 7:30 pm.  She is sleeping soundly even now.

It was scarey, fun day.  The CC cookies made it all better.
Happy St. Patrick's Day all!
