More May, 2010

OK, I'm back...well, for now anyways. You know, catching up from 6 months ago is kind of cool. See, I get to post pics of winter in the summer and pics of summer in winter! Today, November 20th, it may hit a high of 20degrees F. So, to post pics of my rhubarb starting to grow is nice. Makes me feel warm. Just sayin'.
Here's our little family with Michael's mom, Lillian. She's a wonderful lady. We all went out to lunch at Southfork. Yummy!
Leilani came to visit for a few days. As always, her little stuffed kitty rides prominently in her backpack, and, as always, as soon as Annisia has said her obligatory 'hi, Aunty Leilani!', she asks so politely if she can have Aunty Leilani's kitty. Aunty Leilani says yes, with the reminder to not hide it, because then it'll get left behind. Well, guess what? We bustled out the door on that Friday morning, headed for the Y daycare and my cycling class. We managed to tell Leilani good bye with hugs and kisses, but discovered a little note on our return. "Kitty is missing in action. Please bring to Ronan when you come to convention." (or something like that.) So, I sent Annisia off to find Aunty Leilani's kitten. Then we fed and watered her before packing her in a box with some yarn for the return to her mistress. ;-)
Rhubarb! This was my first picking on May 16. Yum! Rhubarb apple crisp!

My munchkins! Cowboy up, Jonathan! These great chaps and vest are from Gramma and Papa.
Annisia is tickled about the piles of grass left behind in the first mowing.

Jonathan and Annisia put this puzzle together and then Jonathan wrote a story about it. I can't find the story. And that really bugs me. So! If I find it, I'll come back and post it.
Annisia put this one together. It's a really cool puzzle, both sides have a picture. On this side, all the letters of the alphabet and the numbers 0-9 are hidden. Fun puzzle.
