morning ponderings….

weird to writing two -ing words together….hm.

Anywho, I dropped the kiddos off at my sister’s last night and they were quite excited to play with their Auntie, Uncle and cousins – no tears when i left or anything!  crazy.    I came home and cleaned the house with my Husband – was up until almost 1 doing so, and I don’t know that coming in now anyone would know I even tried to clean – such is the world of having 3 children – they’re wonderful and lovely and all are too young to really realize how nice it would be to live in a tidy house – The one that is getting old enough is of the male variety and that might be an outlying factor for him in the clean area…I’m not sure they have a tidy gene…

Right, sorry about the random blogging.  I’m waiting for my computer to hook up wirelessly to my work so I can get it done before leaving for SF for the weekend.  Giants and Symphony here we come!!!!!!!!  weeeee…..  can’t imagine a better plan.  Hope everyone attempting to go to the horribleness I consider Picnic Day at UCD has as much fun as their heart desires!  A lovely weekend to all you who are not as well. Now………should I have a travelling sock or maybe some fingerless gloves………………baby sweater?   what would look best pictured in the city?

flowerSpring has sprung!!!!

I took this while walking in the rain with the kiddos the other day – just turned out pretty well, thought i’d share…

Happy Birthday to me!

It’s been a lovely day;  I recieved about a bagillion emails, texts and facebook notes to wish me a happy day and I’ve been able thus far to spend the entire day with my kiddos and my husband.  Scott and I built a much needed chicken coopChicken's in coop...

While we loved having the chickens roam free, they are a lot to clean up after…

I made a flourless chocolate cake following this: Flourless chocolate cake French – Recipe – recipe and it tuned out absolutely lovely!

Even got the kid approval:

Chocolate Faced Anna-Baby!

Tonight I head to a book club (Jane Austen weeeee) after Allen’s Tball Game and then on to Scott’s Softball game – life is definitely full and crazy busy, but It’s always nice to just enjoy the springtime and all the activities that come with it :) (like chocolate cake…)
