Oh My It Has Been A Week Already.....

I can't believe that it has been a week since I sat down in from of the computer to write on my blog but then there has not been much going on to even write about...

The last two days I have been doing something I really enjoy at mom and dad's... and that is painting... they finally bought some paint to paint the clothes stand, the back porch steps and the picnic table... well yesterday Roger and I took on the stand and thought we were going to do the picnic table but as we took a break every one was out sitting at the table until it was time for me to go home... talking about doing it today but Roger did it last night without telling me... so when I showed up this morning with my painting clothes in tow I was a little disappointed as it is one of my favorite things to do... but there was more to do... a thingy that has been in the rose bushes for several years not painted and I did the second coat on the stand which made me happy...

Yesterday afternoon Lisette and Paden showed up at the house.. which is always a wonderful surprise and a great pleasure since we don't get to see the both of them all that often... of course the camera came out...

It was sunny and hot out so we got mom's sun glasses for her and I passed her my hat... she doesn't look all that bad with both of them...

Of course I had to get a photo of Lisette and dad together...

We tried to get Paden to look at the camera but there was no way he was going to do it for any of us... but.... you know me I am sneaky sometimes Paden...
And when you were not looking I was snapping away... he he got you honey ....

Of course there was one of Lisette and mom together as well...

A little while a go they discovered that the Melanson Family had a on going visitor to the feeders other then the birds ... a little chipmunk.... and mom because amazed by it... and Flo to add things to it... yesterday she took out the little basket, dog and nuts for the chipmunk... and I turned the corner to take some photos of the little fellow and ended up taking this one of her with her camera...
This week we are also preparing to celebrate another year of mom and dad together... 63 years... amazing is what I think... so we are having a bar b que on Sunday with the family that will be here.... which will be a lot more then we first thought since several of the grand and great grandchildren will be home for it... so you know that there will be photos come Sunday night or Monday morning...

I have been also busy with the knitting department... finishing up another sweater.. and several pair of socks... I am thought I got a great pattern for a hat for the baby but I didn't like the way it was working out so I am still looking for one... maybe it is time to go up to my sister in law's and actually get the pattern I use to make for the boys.. I know that I liked that one... sweaters just can't be made without a hat to go with it.... bonnets are being left up to Sharon she is better at them then I am unless she has a fool proof one for me... time to go visit her I think.... when I get the hat and socks done I will post them... they are just tooo cute for words.... I know one thing our little bean will not have cold feet when he/she shows up....

Well off to project 2009 to post some photos as well....have a great night... Joanne
