Little boy Shadowbox

1910mom_2girls1_2

Good Monday greetings!!! Hope all you Mommies (to big and little ones) had a wonderful Mothers day and were pampered and spoiled like crazzy! We DESERVE it!!! 🙂 It was the first time my hubby took the kids ALL day long (even grocery shopping) with a big smile on his face and not one grumble or complaint. hee! hee! Mothers Day started out a wee bit scarey for us. We had very bad storms come thru in the wee hours, and our tornado sirens went off at 5:30am. By 6am hubby and I had the kids safely downstairs in the basement because a tornado was spotted and we needed to take shelter. It was quite scarey to say the least. We were extremely fortunate that we did not get hit, however a torando did touch down appx 5-7 miles south of our neighborhood. There was a lot of storm damage and were very lucky to have our power, but had no water for most of the day. Anyhoo, by late afternoon water came back on, and we enjoyed the rest of our evening.

The kiddies did a FANTASTIC job with gift giving. How did they EVER know that Mommy wanted a new camera??? Hmmm…maybe a little biride told them.

I got the just released Nikon P80 Coolpix. It’s a good snap a shot pic but with more bells and whistles.
