Hi people...anyone want to come give me a break from babysitting for a while???
I should just send them outside to play in the HOT PINK kiddie pool, right? I can't stand the color, and it just happens to match my swimsuit, which I can't stand either. I need to get a new one!LOL..(kinda) Rachel said to me "Vanessa why don't you go get in the little pool since you and it match?" And then I had to explain to her that I was not too fond of the idea of having the neighbors drive by and see a teenage girl wearing a hot pink swimsuit and reclining in a hot pink kiddie pool. We have the sweetest stray kitten that has decided to make his home with us. He is orange and was very very thin and had a burnt nose, when he came. He is fattening up very well and has earned the name of Flame. Wish our camera was downloaded on this computer so I could post some pics of him. We went to the library last night since it was open till 8pm.  Don't you love the feeling of getting a stack of interesting books that are just WAITING to be read, you curl into a soft plushy comfy chair and become oblivious to the world for the next 5 hours.....AWWWW! Rude awakening! "VANESSA, Vanessa!! Mom has been calling and calling you! What in the world are you doing?" And so on...oh well, so much for that lovely dream!
Love you all!

Anyone want to join me in this cooking heat?? It is 106 here now....sigh
We had tons of fun last night, they decided to play touch football instead of
baseball, which was great 'cause I can catch footballs much better than baseballs, anyhow. But I always did something stupid when I caught the ball, like run the wrong way or something! I could see some of the boys (and girls too, but of course they understood better) were like "what do you expect-she's a girl!

Oh my goodness, it has been like FOREVER since I wrote anything on here. First of all, we did not have 2 babies, it was just one boy, named Skyler Edmond. I love him to pieces, and he is soooo adorable. It is so hot here right now, I am all sweaty....104 degrees, excuse me?? Is it supposed to be this hot here already? I helped my mom set upi her own blog yesterday. It is mainly on health, so if you want to check it out, here's the link    http://naturesraworganics.blogspot.com/  We are going to Strausburg for a picnic this evening. Sounds like it will be a night of playing baseball too, which is fine with me cause I enjoy it, (when I can hit the ball, that is....):) I am making raw strawberry cheesecake too, anybody want some? (It's really really good, by the way, if I must say so myself, seeing that I made it.) Well Happy 4th Of July, everyone, and have the best one ever! (And enjoy the fireworks tonight! I know I will, my bro's bought a lot to shoot off this year) God Bless~

Time To Laugh!!

Here's something to keep you laughing!


Q. How can you stop a small child from spilling food at the
table?

A. Feed him on the the floor.


Q. What happens to little girls who swallow bullets?

A. Their hair comes out in bangs.


A farmer and his wife went to a fair. The farmer was fascinated by the airplane
rides, but he balked at the $10 tickets.
"Let's make a deal," said the pilot. "If you and your wife can ride without making a single
sound, I won't charge you anything. Otherwise, you pay the ten dollars."
"Good deal!" said the farmer.
So they went for a ride. When they got back the pilot said, "If I hadn't
been  there, I never would have believed it. You never made a sound!" "It wasn't
easy either," said the farmer. "I almost yelled when my wife fell out."


When the cop asked the prostrate man if he got the number of the hit-and-run driver, he said,
"No, but I'd recognize my wife's laugh anywhere."



Boy: "Ah, look at the cow and calf rubbing noses in the pasture. That sight makes me want to
do the same."
Girl: "Well, go ahead...it's your cow."


A new preacher had just began his sermon. He was a little nervous, and about ten minutes into the
talk his mind went blank. He remembered what they had taught him in the seminary when a situation
like this would arise - repeat your last point. Often this would help you remember when is coming next.
So he thought he would give it a try.
"Behold, I come quickly," he said. Still his mind was blank. He thought he would try it again. 'Behold
I come quickly, " Still nothing.
He tried it once more with  such force he fell forward, knocking the pulpit to one side, tripping
over a flower pot, and falling into the lap of a little old lady in the front row.
The young preacher apologized and tried to explain what happened. 'That's all right, young man,"
said the little old lady. "It was my fault.  I should have gotten out of the way. You told me
three times you were coming!"


Q. Why did the boy stand behind the donkey?
A. He thought he'd get a kick out of it.


Q. What is worse than finding a worm in an apple?
A. Finding half a worm.





Have a great day!!

Hi Everyone!!

How nice of you all to be so patient with this whole "I don't have internet" crusade!! I did have trouble logging in to the dashboard on my parents computer, but I decided to try it on this computer and it worked!!!! Yahoooooo! Only problem is yet I have to find a way to put pictures on since all our pics go to mom's computer.... And the long awaited answer to the riddle is finally here:


 




 A WATERMELON!!!!!





Ok, so you have it, and I'm so sorry again it took so long..It is ccccccold here about 35 degrees and a little tiny bit of snow on the ground. We did have more before, but it most of it melted and made a mucky, muddy mess out of the yard. Sooooo much has happened here since I last posted. Let's see, Mom is expecting a baby in March/April and everyone here is excited. The boys want a boy, but all the girls are taking their stand
and telling them there is already enough boys and the female population is already small enough! One of our very close friends died of cancer on the 18th. Now his wife has cancer too, so please pray for her and their family. I've been busy with the normal stuff it takes to run a household, dishes, laundry, cleaning etc! And learning a lot of new stuff. I am very interested in making natural cosmetics, and skin care products. That would be so much fun. Off and on I try experimenting with new recipes and have come across some good ones.
Peace and Blessings!
Vanessa~

*NOTICE*

I'm Vanessa's friend, Hannah. I just want to inform any readers that she is currently unavailable as far as the computer. She doesn't have access to internet right now. She will let you know when she's back. Thank you for your patience.
