Easter and Kirby's First Communion

Easter 2009 Intercessors of the Lamb in Omaha





The community had a table set up with a cake and gifts for each of the children receiving Our Lord for the first time.
Fr Francis was the celebrant for Mass
We had our own reserved table for the lunch after Mass.

Because we were out of town - we used gift bags instead of baskets for the Easter Bunny - but he had no problems figuring it out!

The boys had a request for clear duct tape wallet - We had never heard of clear duct tape but there it was!

The kids have made another wallet for ebay - this time it's red. I hope we get to post more. I am still teaching them how to post on ebay so they haven't posted one with out me. Hopefully they will be able to start posting by themselves. Having to wait for me took 3 weeks to get the one posted....

The Mini Van Adventure

And yes we learned about tow trucks - one subject down!







Well since I haven't posted in some time I wanted to catch everyone up on what has been going on. My mini van had a little excursion into a ditch then back out and over someones driveway - no kids in the car just me - and I have to say the airbags have been tested and my hands turned red and were burned - not to bad just enough to be a pain - a little aloe cleared it up - anyway it took over 6 weeks to fix it ... and State Farm's check
Here is my van being towed away on December 15th
This is the puddle of oil it leaked into the drive way - the van was empty!


The Tow truck man was very nice and cleaned up some of the oil - no he is not a plumber ;)
I don't know what the tow truck guy wanted me to take a picture of but here is the underneath of the van - I think that is the oil pan...

No clue what this is - but it seems to be broken.


Bye - little van

The boys sold their wallet!

I am so happy that the boys sold the wallet they made. I know they are proud that someone thought their wallet was good enough to buy.
