A Mom's Overture

This lady sings everything that a mom says in one day in 2 minutes and 55 seconds. It's really cool.

Wind Mills

The other day we were on our way to wednesday night meeting and saw these wind mills looking so pretty against the prairie skyline. The sheer size of them cannot be captured in a photo - but they are something to behold.

* Lurk Check *

As you can see we are getting many visitors from around the country - it is our goal to get a visit from all 50 states :) - so if you are traveling through one of our white states, please look us up. We have also had visits from Canada, Great Britain, and Australia. If you are traveling abroad, give our site a peek so that we can record visits from exotic places :)

Who are you????
We get so many visits, but you are all so "quiet". We want to know who you are.
Please leave us a comment on this posting so we can get an idea of who is lurking out there spying on our lives :)

Our New Neighbors

We were out to the new house tonight and I retrieved my trail camera and found a couple shots of the locals on there. Nothing with antlers yet - but we are just getting started :) The cutest ones we got right after we set the camera up, of course they were the 2 legged kind. The girls were very excited to see proof of the deer living in our forest.

Go Buckeyes

After going back to Mom and Dad Stickel's house last weekend, we all came home with Ohio State Gear!! Go Buckeyes!! It felt good to wear it all together and root for the bucks as a family :)

1st day of preschool

Marina was VERY excited to start preschool last week. She is so social that she doesn't have a hard time making friends. We are interested to see if her ability to focus improves this year - we're crossing our fingers!
