Cindy...Thanks for always posting our link so everyone has updates!!! I'm so bad at just maintaining our blog, getting to post on this one also will take a while. There is always so much to keep up with on the internet. We appreciate your keeping everyone updated on our lives, hopefully I can get Nick to start posting here while I keep up our blog so we keep it up with both!

They've posted more photos!

Hey you guys!

They've put up more photos of the little ones - Noelle and Owen!

How are you all? This past weekend we had a little taste of spring - low 70s, did just a little yard work - it was so pleasant. Now we are adjusting to the "time change - springing forward." Anyone else missing that hour of sleep? YAWN.

A March Snowfall

These photos are really current, like a couple hours ago. We didn't get it too bad - about 5-6 inches of powdery stuff. This first pic shows Petey's venture out the slider onto the patio, see the circle - just far enough to make some yellow snow then a quick U-Turn!










Dave got the snow blower goin'. This has been a great opportunity for "us" to help our neighbors - we've been blessed with this little piece of equipment, so Dave does the "seniors" and anyone else he can help.











A shot of Harford County Snow plow! In some years past when we've had a really wet, significant snow, we've cleaned our driveway and around the mailbox only to have the snowplow come by and bury the mailbox and the end of the drive!!! Not a problem today!

These photos are from Saturday - day before yesterday. I'm still adjusting to the empty nest, but thank goodness she has to do laundry!!!!

Rachel came home to do laundry, and brought her
Terrorist, I mean four-month old yellow lab, Enzo to visit and play! Enzo really wants to be friends with 11 year old Petey - who has forgotten that he is a dog and wants nothing to do with Enzo. As you can see from the photos, Enzo laid on the couch next to Petey who endured this as long as Dave was sitting with his hand on Petey. Then Petey said "enough, this couch isn't big enough for the two of us!"

So while laundry is laundering, Enzo and Petey are bonding, Rachel and Mom are at Bed Bath & Beyond, I'm shopping the aisles and find Rachel in the chair with the back massager, just texting away. The look on her face - "what?".
