BE OUR GUEST!

Madison created the most beautiful dinner last night.
She surprised me (she confined me to my room) with a yummy pancake dinner!
She put up a bed sheet to enclose the living room and kitchen with a sign, DINNER INSIDE.
She set the long table with a pink table cloth, and a formal table setting. She had pancakes ready with maple syrup and a pitcher of water. She said she forgot the strawberries, but no one cared as she made me the GUEST OF HONOR! She had everyone sit down, I was at the head of the table, and we feasted on delicious pancakes!
She even had the kitchen looking great and all cleaned up!

Funny she is 9 yrs old. I cannot believe it.

Thank you Madison for a wonderful dinner!!

ATOPIC DERMATITIS OR OTITIS EXTERNA Anyone?

All this means is: Skin is reacting to an allergic reaction
Otitis means: Ear is reacting to an allergic reaction
(please no Vets should proof read)

So rashes on skin and ear infections!! Fun stuff
and for animals they can get pretty good swelling and problems

Michael is doing a Science Project on Pollens in the area and is graphing them
by dates to figure out when the highest and lowest counts of pollen are throughout the year.
AAAHHHHH! No Yawing, Do I still have you?
This is actually something Ryan wanted to figure out and be able to get the data figured out
so that he may be able to help his patients better!!
So whether or not Michael wanted the job, HE GOT IT! And he has a mouth full to understand and memorize. You ask him a question and he says, "UH yeah." Then Laughs
Well his project is due tomorrow and I hope he can say a little more than that!!

I am of course very interested in this subject as well. For it helps me to understand what my body is doing and how it reacts during the year as well as dogs! Ryan and I have been working on this for 3 yrs!! And Ryan is having some allergic reactions to cats!!
Amazing to me that you can react in different ways. For example:
*I react from food by getting migraines. (I also get migraines from hay fever, change in weather, sinus problems, stress!)
*Ryan reacts from cats by itching, sneezing,
*Humans react more from airways than dogs
*Dogs react more in the ears and skin
*Michael had skin irritation on his legs during soccer season, after they mowed
*Chandler always has a runny nose from hay fever

Michael and Ryan graphed the pollen for year. Looking at the graph, compared myself and matched up my hay fever, migraines with it exactly!
They matched! The pollens, migraines and hay fever they are all intertwined!
I knew it would be, but fun to see.

I knew it would be, but fun to see

Ryan hunts these: Quail, they are beautiful birds. Makes me sad but I do enjoy that

he can get us food if we need it.

He spends a lot of time holding the birds and observing their colors and enjoying the birds beauty.

This is our new found passion!! making movies Thanks to Dave and Breehan

My brother-in-law and sister, we have been creating movies with our

camcorder!!

Ryan spends every moment putting together all the fishing, hunting, and kids pictures

together to organize into files. We can make movies and slideshows!

We are now hooked and have a great time laughing, reminiscing and playing.

We delete scenes of unimportance, like when Ryan decides to put the camera in his pocket, but forgets to stop recording!!

Or times when the kids fight!! (of course that NEVER happens)

Otherwise most of it goes in, just for fun.

Enjoy!!

I am so excited, for I was able to fix my itunes!! We have had a minor problem where the computer back dated and the new versions were now obsolete!! SOOOO I am grateful to have been able to go inside and put in the 8.2 version.... Any way I fixed it!! I love when I can fix
my own computer problems.

Favorite audio books, music, movies, and more I feel lost without it!!
