Happy New Year

We had a fairly quiet New Year's Eve. We prefer staying home and out of the way of those "once a year" party-ers! Corby did it again. He made homemade pizza. Well, he made the dough. The boys and I made our own pizzas. We each like something different on them. I had to get a picture of Corby and the mess he makes on his clothes. Yes, he has aprons. Man aprons of course. Does he wear them? Rarely!Here are some of the ingredients we used.
I don't like mushrooms, so I didn't put any on mine. I had ground beef, canadian bacon, pepperoni, onion and cheese on mine. Here's my fresh-from-the-oven pizza!Here's what the boys did after dinner.
Yep, played video games. Poor Kaitlin. She had to work 5-10. We all managed to stay up until midnight and say "Happy New Year" and then us old fogies hit the sack.

Oh yeah, had to show you this picture of Muffin. Both cats love my space heater, and Muffin sprawled out behind me last night. I couldn't get near the heat!
Today has been a rest and relaxation day. We did put up the Christmas tree and decorations, but not much else. Corby and I watched a movie this afternoon: "Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada". I'm a big fan of Tommy Lee Jones, and this movie was good, but strange. I would like to see his latest movie, "No Country for Old Men". I've heard it is really good.

My latest book is another one by Debbie Macomber - RETURN TO PROMISE. I checked out 5 books at the library on Saturday. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TO READ!

I found a bunch of new quotes yesterday, so today's quote: "Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly." -- Lanston Hughes

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
