Spring Break - Canistota

We were also able to take a day to spend with the Olson's in Canistota before heading home. The girls had so much fun playing with Ethan and Luke and Susan and I had a great time catching up.

Spring Break - Gettysburg


I got the official 'permission' from my doctor to travel on Tuesday and the girls had all of Holy Week off for Spring Break. So on Saturday we headed to Gettysburg to visit friends. The girls traveled well and we had a great time!

A Bit

I did some catching up for the past couple months. By doing some major cropping I was able to get some of the pictures to upload in a short amount of time. This is probably all I will do since most of the files are still huge.

We are enjoying beautiful weather overall - the snowpile that was next to the garage (tall enough that we could've climbed on the roof) is now just a tiny layer of ice left on the ground.

The girls have spring break all of holy week which we are looking forward to.

Baby Dot is doing fantastic, I have appointments every two weeks where I get an ultrasound and do an FFN test along with the usual weighing and measuring of everything. So far everything has been perfect, so hopefully these shots I get every week are doing their thing.

That's about all for our lives right now - I can't promise that I'll go back to do doing daily pictures or anything, but hopefully I'll get something on here at least once a week - thanks for checking in on us!

Fixed! (we hope)



Hip-hip-hooray (I think, I hope, I pray) we have FINALLY figured this whole thing out. Long story with a combination of camera drivers and settings. Many thanks to my aunt Pat for being smarter then technology (which I can never be!). She made some suggestions and that seem to have WORKED - I was able to upload these 3 pictures in about 5 minutes! Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to 'fix' the previous pictures since I've stopped blogging to get them to work, but I will try a couple things to catch-up, but realistically I'm just going to try to go forward from here. Thanks Pat!


Wii!

Eli (kathi's son) and Mark had a fun time playing baseball wii!

I Tried

Here's the update on figuring out computer problems - I have tried using different computers with different internet programs (firefox vs. explorer, etc.) and have tried moving to a place where my internet was full (all bars vs. 2-3). No matter what I did using the same pictures I could not get anything to upload. I have even tried setting up a new blog but it was the same. After waiting 20+ minutes on each 'experiment' I gave up and exited out. Mark had been suspicious that it was either the age of our computer since sadly technology is greatly outdated after a few years or the internet quality at our house. Someone had also suggested that firefox would work much better, but now that we've tried all of those different areas I'm just at a loss. Any thoughts or suggestions please share with me......I know people have commented on how they miss the blog but I have no idea what else to do to get it up and running again. Thanks for checking in on us - have a blessed Easter!

Interesting.....

Piles



Gorgeous day to play in the snow! I think the high was 60 but we still had feet of snow piled up in places - it was so funny to see what looked like a 'cold weather' activity done w/out coats or hats - it was too warm for those!
