Geez, it about flippin' time! I don't know how you can sleep at night Dix!
Those are great pictures of the kids. Thanks for sharing. I like your playlist Dixie! I am listening to it while I am working on the computer.
By the way, this is your cousin Cyndi (Bob & Deanna's daughter) from PA in case you are wondering who the heck posted a comment.
I looked at your blog last year when you were building the house. It was fun to read your stories.
