…ad an EASTER SURPRISE! My parents after being with us for 3 days had to go home. John Deere PaPa and my sweet hubby made the most beautiful pergola. More on that later. My sweet chocolate eyed daughter started crying – mournfully. There are no words to describe those tears. Since my hubby took off this week to finish some remodeling jobs in our home – we couldn’t figure out a reason why the kids couldn’t go with their beloved John Deere Grandparen…

Healthy Junk Food Night
…e’ve been doing this for a few months and we love it! We go to church come home and veg. Literally. We try to get “healthy” chips, dips, pita bread, deli meats and try something new.

Bee Swarm on our house
…e. I know this area has “pseudo-Bees” but never did I realize how close to home they were. Our city has a bee force. They come out to homes and kill the bees for you. Meet Pete. Pete, our newly adopted hero, sprayed the swarm with soapy water. Something I would have never thought of. I would have used an atomic bomb or some other kind of missile. Not soap and water. We were watching safely from indoors. Most of them died. Until my hubby tried fill…
