Okay so I'm a bit lax in blogging

Why I started this blog, who knows, wanted to be "in"? Still not sure. But just wanted to do some updated of our lives.

Julia graduated PreK on Saturday. How cute is that. She had a little graduation hat, sang some songs for all the people that were there to watch their kids. She has changed so much in the year since she went to school. Next year is the big time. Kindergarten and riding on the BIG bus. We'll miss Ryan the bus driver. He waits for us, if we are not out there on time. lol

Greg is Greg, a crazy kid who puts all things in his mouth ( found a dime today) and never stops except to rest for 30 second intervals. Or if Moose A Moose is on. (noggin-what a great channel)

The snake that didn't get away...

Okay I know it was only a garter snake but it was long and big around and scared the crap out of me. I hate snakes and so does my husband. And when I was in the garden the other day and jumped he knew what it was. We have a rock wall surrounding our garden, yes I know they like to live there so it's like we invited them. But I don't want them. Usually when I work in the garden I bang the shovel on the rocks to let them know I'm coming so they can slither on into their hole and not scare me. Well my hubby who has been dubbed my hero, he got the snake on Sunday. Now Julia wasn't scared to look at while it was dead. I made sure I was still a good 10 feet away. And my hero he threw it in the woods and never looked back.
I'm still shivering just thinking about it.

Getting on the blog train...

Not quite sure why I've decided I need to do this. Who actually is going to read what I have to say? But hey why not.

Who is Leland and why do I want to know about his life? Well Leland is not a he, it is a they. That is our name. And I thought maybe I would ramble about our life. Although I can't say that it's an exciting life. Hubby and I work. We have 2 cute kids and 2 cats who run our lives.

First ramble, as I drove home from work today I noticed something. And I know it's not just the area I live in. I am in a rural area (30 miles to closest mall) Only major store here right now is Wally World and Dollar stores. How pathetic is that! Anywho, what is up with people and the trash in their yards? Now neat freak I am not. And I'll admit my counters have clutter, and the living room usually looks like Toys R Us threw up in there, but people if the car doesn't run get rid of it. Pick up the garbage that's on the ground. Get rid of the appliance that died just don't make it a flower bed!!!! I know there are extreme circumstances, someone could be ill or you don't have a truck to get rid of it. But you must know somone who has a truck. Geez! And lawn furniture is not the sofa that isn't good enough for the living room anymore. Know what I mean????

Well that's my first blog I guess. Aren't you glad you read it?
