A day looking back


Look what I found while going through photos.....I guess Uncle Matt and Ella always had a tight bond

My own Monster



What happens when your 1 1/2 year old finds a bag of dark chocolate M&M's when your in the other room. I don't know if I was more upset that she has chocolate drool all over her cloths and the floor....or that she pretty much ate the WHOLE bad in about 2 minutes. Ella knew, just keep stuffing them into the mouth and thier mine!

Blakelake Monster




What Daddy and Jadan find on adventures on their own. Randy caught the Blakelake Monster and they call it, I have a video clip too....but I'll have to ask Randy how to upload it because it is the funniest thing watching it flop around and him try to controll it while Jadan's high pitch voice is excited in the backgroud. I know you can all picture it :-)

Note: Jadan caught his fish all on his OWN!

Gingerbread house....train




The first gingerbread anything I ever remember making and as you can see I was more serious about it than my little elf helper. Ella on the other hand only ate the house toppings so she had to get fired from elf school and was not too pleased about that. We had a lot of fun making it....a little hard, I couldn't get everything to stand straight and that drove me crazy but other than that...it tasted good. As soon as we were done and I put it in the kitchen, elf 1 and elf 2 were eating it. I guess that how it works!

Christmas Cookies





As you can see Ella and Kesha are great "helper" in the cookie making department. I can't say the same for the little boy who feel asleep the whole time this task took place. In the end, they were the hit of any party...homemade Girl scout mint cookies. YUMMY!

Take a step back in time



I know, I know, this is from 3 months ago...so be prepared to get caught up with the Springers. My darling husband finally took all the pictures off of our 2 cameras before he left for Utah, I wish I would have learned how to do it...but one step at a time...right?

Hee-haw

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.

Virus Warning

Heads-up guys...mom or April may have already heard about this one at work. Sounds like a particulary nasty one. I'll add links to the story on CNN as well as the link to Microsoft to find the appropriate 'patch' for your PC.

-To find out which version of Windows you have, click START, then RUN, and type WINVER...it should pop up. Pay close attention, each one requires a slightly different patch.

Ask me if you have any questions. Better safe than sorry..viruses SUCK!!

Home in the Motherland

Things are going exceedingly well over here. What wonders wonderful time with wonderful family will do. I'll post a few photos I've snapped in my first few days back. Feel free to comment and enjoy.








(P.S. Why do these photos post anti-chronologically from the order I load them...it's counter-logical!)








What are you looking for-what do you see


Good morning, good mo-o-orning!

“Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.”

Post-Greatest Holidays in the History of History

A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?
