Heading  to the houseboat this afternoon and really looking forward to it.  Even though we will be starting out the weekend by tearing into the roof as we have some soft spots that need replaced.  Everyone that owns a houseboat knows that the upkeep is never ending.  We could paint and fix all the time I think and never have everything done.  And just when you think you are done it is time to start all over.  Oh well it keeps us young I guess.  Or something.  Everyone have a great weekend and stay cool!

I'm Farming and I Grow It

Saw this on FB and just had to share it since we are from Iowa and have a ton of farmers too!  Very creative and fun.  Thanks guys you did a great job with this!

Happy Birthday Tyler

 I can't believe that our "baby" is 17 years old today!  A very happy, happy birthday to you Ty.  I hope that you have a special day and get to do things that you want to (hello BWW) and enjoy some time with friends.  I'm sure you will enjoy your new golf club also when you find the time to get on the course with your busy schedule.  Anyway hope you have a great birthday and your raspberry cheesecake will be ready for you when you get home tonight. Are you really now a senior in high school and heading to college very soon?  That makes me feel very old and scared!  Love you to the moon bud!

Happy Happy Birthday DIL Ashley!

You are a beautiful and wonderful person that met and fell in love with our son.  We tried to tell you not to do it but I think you guys are pretty happy.  And little Ava is the best thing that has happened in Gma & Gpa Odneal's life for a while.  You are a great Mom and I truly hope that you have a great birthday.  Your cheesecake will be there around supper time.  I'm making Ty's and yours at the same time, but if I end up going to his game you may end up with yours late to enjoy Wednesday.  It will be good no matter what and yours to do with what you want.  And I hope you decide to join us this coming weekend at the river.  Tater would LOVE the sandbar for sure.  Enjoy your day doing what you want after work.  And maybe Cole will even make you supper.  That would be awesome in my book!  Have fun and we love you!

 So once again I typed a whole paragraph to go with this collage and the words got lost.  I guess my issue is with Blogger and not the old laptop at home I blame it on every time!  Ava and her parents were over Wednesday night so I of course had to snap some photos of her.  She was trying to put my shoes on her feet and it was too cute.  And the one of her back to me she is walking a few steps.  I couldn't get any good ones of her walking towards me.  We are heading to the houseboat this afternoon and excited to see Barb, Kevin and the triplets tomorrow.  They are taking over our boat for their vacation so they can have their own space.  Hoping that they have good weather and catch lots of fish while they are here.  I'm looking forward to a weekend of relaxing and doing some reading.  This week has exhausted me with so much to do!  Everyone have a great weekend and stay cool!

Very Happy, Happy Birthday Ava!

So tired of doing posts and losing them on this old laptop.  Time for a new one I think.  My words always get lost.  Had a beautiful time and day at Ava's first birthday party.  She was an angel and got so many nice gifts.  Thank you to everyone that came to her party.  It was so nice to spend time with Tater and she will be walking in no time since she did 3-5 steps everywhere in our living room tonight.  She is well on her way.  Happy Birthday our dear Ava!  We love you more than you can ever imagine little girl!  Hope you have a great and awesome day!

Watch Little Big Town’s “Pontoon” Video A friend posted this on FB and I love it.  We don't have a pontoon but we "borrow" Mom & Dad O.'s all the time and have a blast with it.  Great song.  I'm adding it to my playlist for Ty to load onto my ipod!  Everyone have a good weekend.  It will be a good one to be on and in the water!

   Yes I am alive and kicking just not finding the time to spend on doing any posts.  Last night I took a long time coming up with a nice Wednesday post and when I thought it was uploading I did something and none of my text showed up on the saved post.  Just this picture collage.  Oh well.  We have been busy with baseball, river on the weekends, and getting my garden and flower pots finally planted (picture above does prove that!).  I have many pictures from the happenings of late to post about, but just can't find the passion or time to sit down on the computer to do it when it is so nice outside in the evenings.  It sounds like some hot and humid Iowa weather is on its way before the weekend which is awesome to me.  I'm one of those that can be chilled when it is 90 degrees out so bring on the heat.  I don't like the humidity however because Bruce makes me close up the house and turn on the AC and I am just a fresh air kind of gal.  Here's hoping everyone had a gr
