Jon and Alec went ice fishing at Sebego on Saturday...good thing I had made lasagna because they were unsuccessful at bringing home any supper. But I know they had fun and Alec had some much needed guy time.
We all had so much fun just being together and watching the babies and dogs. Emmette and Weston are so adorable (and good!). Emmette can almost walk and looks just like Caitlin (lucky girl!!) and Weston thought Alec was hysterical...he has such a cute belly laugh! The dogs were also very good, although Millie continues to be a sock theif and we would find mismatched socks all over the house. At least she didnt take Brians this time and bury them outside again! (sorry about that!)
Sunday morning (V-day) Alec and Jon sat out in the yard target shooting with Alec's new pellet gun that he bought intending to kill a few chipmunks which have over populated our yard. The chipmunks also decided to make Alec's truck engine storage for their acorns. (His truck started making funny noises so he looked under the hood and I kid you not, there were at least 500 acorns stashed away, they even started coming our his vents!) You will be happy to know that he had the chance to shoot the poor little Alvin, but apparently he and Jon have a soft spot for small animals and couldn't pull the trigger. Bambi may be safe after all!
Katie helped me pick out a few paint colors and had some great kitchen ideas...it sure is nice having a friend who is also an interior designer! I cant wait to get started.
It was so great to see Katie, Jon, Weston, Mako and Caitlin, Brian and Emmette, thank you for coming up! We have decided that February is the longest (although technically the shortest) month of the year and having company is a necessity to keep both of us sane. (Ever see "The Shining"!!!)
My mom and I met in Ogunquit on Monday to go for a walk and out to lunch. I had never been but always heard it was beautiful. The Marginal Way walk was gorgeous and Monday felt like Spring, so warm and sunny! We had a great day and the dogs had so much fun!
Auntie Beth made us the BEST chocolate cake ever for V-day, so delish with a glass of milk. Thank you very much!
Thank you for your prayers and support. Alec is feeling good and sometimes I have to remind myself that he is sick, his attitude is undaunted and he makes me laugh so hard. We are both so focused on him getting better and there is not a doubt in my mind that a year from now this will all be just a distant memory that we can look back on and say..."Wow, did that really happen?"
Love to all,
Heather & Alec
Millie too.
