We are still awaiting the arrival of Smiley's kids.  She mostly lays around but who could blame her?  She is huge.  We have four new baby rabbits.  I'll have to get some pictures because one of them is a "chubster".  Cute!!  Saturday, we sat through three soccer games and got burned.  Jeff stayed home from work and yesterday when a huge blister came up on his leg, I said "go to the doctor".  He did and he has second degree burns.  We felt very silly for even getting burned ,but it was overcast and I guess  we didn't think about getting burned.  I can tell you we will think about it next time.  

   I am very excited.  I am getting a pressure cooker for Mother's day.  Yes, I know it's late but I don't care.  I am going to buy it today.  I have wanted one for a while.  I have my grandmother's but it is so old I am scared to use it plus it is very small.  My goal is to can my own convenience foods.(beans, soups,meats,etc.)  I have canned jams and applesauce  many times but I have never used a pressure cooker.  On another note, I have a Nutrimill grinder.  It is not working which is a major pain.  I haven't been able to make bread.  Anyway, I called the company that makes them and they will fix it for free.  It has a lifetime warranty and they mean it. Yeah!!

  The children are all excited about our pool.  The pool man came yesterday and replaced the liner and we are currently filling it up.  I am sure they will end up in the pool before the day is over.  And they don't care what the temperature is. LOL  

  Today we will be working on moving Jeff's tools to the barn, cleaning off  the deck, and of course laundry.  Hope everyone has a productive and blessed day.
