Hello!!!!!!



I am finally back on line for good I hope. These pictures were taken on our trip to Mile Creek Landing May 20. We were taking Allyssa and Vincent's friend, his wife and their little girl the same age as Allyssa went to. These are the falls that we go to sometimes that is located SOMEWHERE on the lake. I don't know exactly where you would say that they are located since we get their by water! But seems like everybody knows about them and it is usually SO CROWDED that you cannot even get near the place, some people take the whole place putting up volleyball nets, etc. and then no one else can get to it. So this was a day that there was no one around and we took advantage of it. Allyssa loved climbing on the rocks, everybody slipped some and everyone but me (b/c I was taking the pictures) climbed to the top. We took Hanzo (our puppy) with us too and he was not about to let Vincent out of his sight so he followed him.
Nothing going on around here except the lack of rain, but we did get some this week. Not enough to end the moderate drought but some. I have a third grandchild in the way by way of Natasha. Three children, she does not know what is in store for her!! She thinks here life is hectic now, just wait..... Hanzo is getting bigger by the day, if he keeps growing he is going to be the size of one of the small ponies! Miss Kitty is in her own little world, being intimidated by Hanzo because he knows she cannot hurt him b/c her front paws are declawed. She goes outside for a bit at a time. But she stays around the house not venturing off too far. Allyssa is glad school is out for the most part but misses her teacher and friends. But she gets to see her friends at day care more now. I went to pick her up on Wednesday, May 13 and when we got to leave she forgot her "little pink book with all my secrets in it".! It is her diary and she has it full of little things that she calls her secrets. I asked her a couple of weeks ago what she had in it and at first she said she could not tell me, but then she said, "I will let you read it but you cannot tell anyone"!!! It was so cute how she said it. She showed me some of the stuff she had wrote in it and of course I cannot tell you what it was but it was cuteness all over. We did find it so know one else could see her secrets! Love her so. Dakota is a little terror right now. She bit a little girl at the day care friday b/c the little girl tried to take her ball, she hit at me, hit at Allyssa b/c Allyssa would not give her what she had in her hand, (which was allyssa's anyway) and hit at Allyssa again when she was trying to keep her from falling off the bench outside while I was getting Hanzo in his kennel and it ended up poking Allyssa in the eye. And for all of those things she got her hand popped and you would have thought you were trying to abuse the child. She just cryed big alligator tears, but when I offered her a bit of ice cream, they disappeared like magic! Imagine that. Well, guess I had better get off for now.
