The calm before the storm~


For all my blogger friends that are near the coast, please be safe!  Right now it is so calm around here but we are expecting 10" of rain and strong winds.  I am praying that our power doesn't go out, I really don't want a flooded basement!   The coast of New Jersey was evacuated.  My sister and brother in law live on the coast line, their home is right on the beach.  They drove to their daughters house up here and they are very concerned.
Called the kids to make sure they are all getting prepared, and asking where they are going to be.  One of my sons and his wife were told that they needed to evacuate.  Their whole street was evacuated, because there is a small creek behind their homes.
The news has been on all day, reporting about the storm.
  My neighbor and I got our walk in early today.  Well, I made a commitment to lose some weight.  I joined the web site, http://www.livestrong.com/ .  It is Lance Armstrong's site, and it is really neat.  It keeps track of the food you eat and calculates everything for you.  It tells you how many calories you have eaten, how many calories you burn when you exercise.  I am giving it a try, so far, so good.

Well, I better go and gather all my candles for tonight.  It is better to be prepared!  Are you prepared?

Be safe.

It was a wonderful day!

All I can say is, I have the greatest kids!  They all came over today and my daughter in law Megan taught everyone how to make homemade Ravioli!  And it was delicious!


My daughter in law Megan is organizing everyone for ravioli making!



Even our grand daughter Megan helped Uncle Kevin & Uncle Matt




Bob, Kristin & Stacy relaxing, waiting for the ravioli to be served.  Stacy has 3 weeks to go before we have a new little grand son.



Connor wanted a snack while he waited for the ravioli.




The hubby and me



and then the finished product....homemade ravioli!!

What a wonderful Mothers day I had!  I am one lucky Mom.....

Little People!




If you don't see them for a while you start to miss those little people running around your house! We did get to see them today while their parents went shopping. We live next to a farm, and they always want to visit the cows, so of course that is what we did. Then Megan wanted to play babies and Connor wanted to play baseball. Grandpop and Connor played a serious game of baseball and Megan and I watched from the deck, as most ladies do. We drag the baby toys down from the loft to the deck so that Ashley (her baby) has some toys to play with while Megan and I watch the game. Needless to say, it was the most enjoyable visit ever, as they always are!
