Another reason not to eat beef....

Lordy, Lordy....

I read this story yesterday at the Humane society's website then again today on CNN, it's a scary story about horrible people doing horrible stuff to your food supply...problem is these animals that they are abusing and killing are sick and they are the animals being used for the school lunch program. Factory farms are gross and inhumane and if you are going to eat meat buy local!! That's the only way you can guantee that you are getting what you paid for... They are not testing these animals for mad cow. Why are they sick? Gross, gross, gross...

Sorry, I'm off my soapbox, but people need to really live the golden rule...treat others as you would like to be treated. Stick that electric pole up your a*@ see what it feels like. Sorry....gotta go get centered :0)

Read for yourself...

No school today!



Seth is home from school today so I took pictures of him doing his most favorite thing in the world! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! We love you guys! That's Super Mario Galaxy, it's alot of fun.

Jim's lunch sandwiches!


Ok, don't want to brag or anything but my husband came home and told me that I've outdone myself with his lunch sandwiches. He can't get over how good they are! Well when your number one ingredient is love, how can you go wrong :0) It's flat bread with smoked provolone cheese and all the fixin's, I even put our canned banana peppers from the garden on there. He didn't add any extra dressing or anything but I did put Miracle Whip as the base...Yummy!

Awesome report card!

Nice to report Seth did excellent on his report card this time around, we need to work on a few things but that's normal! I had parent teacher conferences yesterday and no bad report...thank goodness. His teacher is really nice. It's just crazy how much they are learning in 3rd grade.

Oreo and Cookie



Seth took new pictures of Oreo and Cookie and they are sooo cute, my goodness. Sometime I look at Oreo and I swear he looks just like Elvis. It's the hair and sideburns. :o)

Grandma's chocolate cake...





 
 
 
 
 

Thanks to Grandma, Seth was able to make a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting all by himself. He even cleaned up after himself, what a wonderful chef! All great chef's have to taste what their cooking! Evidence all over his face :0) Hint: It says "We, heart, GM + GP......(We love Grandma and Grandpa, he didn't think he had enough room so he abbreviated...too funny)

Cookie "Our model"




Here's what Seth and I have been up to this cold, cold winter. Guinea Pig clothes design. Seth did all the sewing, I was just moral support plus I was in charge of dressing the model. She may be "preggers" so we are being so very careful with her. We'll keep everyone posted on her progress. We are so very excited for her and we think she'll be due around Valentine's day.

Tooth Verdict!


It went for $2.oo!! A crisp 2 dollar bill. Good trade, I'd say.

Seth's 2nd Molar is out!!!


He's growing up!! (and getting shy) He wouldn't model the tooth but I wanted everyone to see. Hopefully the toothfairy sees some value in the tooth...Last one she gave $5. Good luck, Seth. We'll know tomorrow.

This is going to be fun..

Inspired by my friend April Born, I'm going to go outside of my comfort zone and make a blog....I'm having fun finding pictures and trying to decide exactly what I want to post. Seth has been busy with alot of projects boy scouts, guinea pig clothes design (with help from mom) and school. Jim and I have been working on our diets....I'm vegan, he's veggie....so that's been fun. I think I'll have like a favorite recipe section....oh man. Jim's been busy with work and band so I'll keep that updated too. So much to do, no time to talk....heehee. Enjoy and please leave comments, I love comments... :0)
