Happy Hump Day


So this week I just haven't had the time to sit down and do any posting. I need to do a slide show of Cole & Ashley's bathroom remodel and that takes time. I can say that Mom & Dad O. got home safely from Texas on Friday night and we went and visited them Saturday night and had pizza with them and Aunt Carol. It was wonderful to see them all after another Iowa winter. And we kept Grandpa & Grandma O. up until after 11:30. I guess that isn't surprising of Joey, but for Jr. that might be a record at home in G'ville! This picture is one of some more bird pictures that I snapped for Ashley's project on Saturday. I hadn't seen a Cardinal and got some good shots of one. And it was underneath the feeder that hasn't had much attention all winter. I guess the others might have been empty since I filled them all late afternoon! Ty went and got measured for his tux for prom tonight. He is only a sophomore and I don't really think he "needs" to go this year, but since he got asked last year too and we didn't let him he is going. He has a lot of older friends that he hangs with so it will be a very fun and memorable time for him. I guess that sums up the week pretty much. I am just busy with life stuff and not anything worth posting about to the world. Have a great rest of the week! Hoping for warmer temperatures and not much rain.  Bring on the weekend.

Iowa Blizzard 2009

Image
Here are a few pictures I took at my work the morning after our lovely Iowa blizzard last week. The snow was 27 inches in front of our office door and the snow was unbelievable all around the building. It was so tall it almost completely covered up the gas pumps. Maybe that will be the last big snow storm of the year. Think we could get that lucky?????? We can hope but I think we are doomed since this is Iowa and that was our first of the year! Everyone stay warm!

Ty Football 2010

Image
So finally remembered to take the camera to Ty's game Friday night and snap some pictures. We won 45-0 and Ty had 3 TD's but one was called back. I don't know what his class will think when/if they ever lose. They haven't lost a game since grade school. Wouldn't that be awesome if they never did lose one? I think our varsity team will be a force to be reckoned with when they are juniors and seniors. Not saying that the varsity team currently isn't. They haven't lost this year either. Love football season but sad to see summer almost over! Go Wapsie Valley Warriors!

Congratulations Kyle & Taylor

 Friday night after the game Kyle proposed to Taylor and she said yes!  We have a new engagement in the family and couldn't be happier for them both.  I even got to be in on the secret and play an important role for Kyle.  Since he was coaching he of course couldn't just leave the game, so he enlisted Mom to go to his car unnoticed right before the end and grab the ring case out of the glove box and the long stem rose out of a cooler in the trunk.  I was pretty sneaky apparently because Taylor didn't even notice that I left.  Of course I stayed away from her somewhat on purpose so I wouldn't open my mouth and let something slip to give it away.  Kyle looked over to me right after the game ended and I shook my head "yes" to let him know I didn't let him down.  He grabbed Tyler and Taylor's brother off the field and said "follow me".  Then he just dropped to a knee and proposed.  I didn't have time to recruit a friend to take some pictures
