guess who went out to play in the snow today???

he even tried to make snow angels.

silly guy.

smores....terry style!

enjoy!!!!

how do they do that?

those amazing computer genius people.

 i love them!

i am happy to inform you all that my computer have been revived.

i honestly didn't think it was possible.

not only has it been revived, but all my pictures are still there!

wooohoo!

im doing a happy dance!

the saga continues......

so, i've been back online,

finally,

but.....

(yeah, there's always one of those)

my desktop is still SERIOUSLY broken. trashed. dead. you get the picture.

 thankfully we got a full protection plan when the bought the hideous contraption a few years ago, because it has been nothing but a headache from day one.

 anyway, today the repair man is coming. that's pretty normal, right? WRONG! we don't do things the "normal" way around here. ever. that would be too...um, boring? yeah. we like excitement, apparently.

sooo....

 the repair guy is coming to my mom's house to fix my desktop. there is no way the poor guy could even dream of making it up our infamous driveway.  i can just imagine his van sliding backwards down our luge and wrapping it around the telephone pole at the bottom....probably wouldn't be a pretty sight.

 nope, not pretty.

sooo...
 this morning, i packed up...

• 
  
   my kids (coats and hats included...yes, a milestone)
• 
  
   their school work  ('nuff said about THAT)
• 
  
  my camera (can't leave home without it you know)
• 
  
  diaper bag (shouldn't leave home without that either, but i've been guilty of it many times before)
• 
  
  repair parts for the computer that were shipped to my house

and

• 
  
  my desktop.... computer, monitor, mouse, keyboard, and even all the correct wires (i think)

with all this in tow,

i headed out the driveway,

 leaving my cozy little house on the hill (aka. the  glacier) with a fully stoked coal fire burning for gramma harv's....

and here i sit, waiting.......

i'm BAAACK!!!

yay!

i'm back

 (well, sort of...i've still got some kinks to iron out)

 and i've got so much to share with you all!

unfortunatly,

 i lost a ton of my pictures

(and the ability to spell)

but...

just because my computer was down, doesn't mean i stopped taking pictures

maybe i should start with these...

aunt larry

 aka,my little sister

made these little valentine's treats the other day...

yummy and delicious..

.not sure which recipe she used,

but yummy,

 all the same!

i've got more ssurprises for you all...so stay tuned!

right now, i've got to take care of my ever growing laundry pile,

and....

 see if i can find that last fortune cookie before someone else does!

bear with me here....

• my computer is in need of a replacement.
• the baby is teething
• and my dvd/vcr player is also dead.

i'm smiling, i really am...
