Honey Bells

I have been watching commercials for Honeybells for the past few years. This year it was on our Christmas list. Honeybells for those who don't know are cross between a tangerine and a grapefruit. Honeybells come to their ripeness in January, so we had to wait for ours. They are so good. Very juicy (hence they ship with a bib)






YUM!

Christmas Cactus???

I have two Christmas Cactus plants. They have bloomed in the past, but this year, I have lots and lots of blooms. They just started blooming about a week ago, and they keep getting more....




So, they can't read the calendar....maybe they should be MLK Day Cactus? Doesn't matter to me, I like them.

Napping

So you know I was sick. Well I coughed so hard, I actually pulled a muscle in my back. So one afternoon, I laid on the floor with an icepack on my back and a blanket. I discovered Stormy wanted to cuddle up too. So I let her be all covered up too. Kevin snapped this of the two of us.

Happy Birthday Pauline

Pauline is now 18 years old! Yea! Hope she has a great day.

We really look forward to her visiting in:

What is it 2011 already?

Ok so I have been "out". Let me give you some updates...to catch you back up....

Before Christmas...Kevin had a birthday, we took a day off work, went to Denver, did some shopping had a great dinner out and came home.

Christmas....had all the family here. Big group, great food, fun.

Then it all turned......The sickness fell in.

First I had it and was in bed for a few days (not how I dreamed of spending my vacation), then it spread around the house and all 4 of us have had it.

New Years Eve...in bed by 10, sick

New Years Day...stayed home and tried to get well.

Back to work for 2011, busy as usual, still recovering from illness. I think we are all now down to that point where you just have an annoying cough leftover.

This coming weekend is a holiday weekend, plan to take it a little easy, and finally put some Christmas stuff away, we haven't been able to do so yet.

So you can see while we haven't posted...there isn't much to say....
