It turns out you CAN teach an old dog a new trick. My daughter has been trying to convince me to start a blog. I'm not sure why... my life is very uninteresting but now seems like a good time to begin. As a disclaimer to my three children: a comment on my blog does not replace an occasional phone call home!
I just got back from a visit with Katie, Spencer and the kiddos. There's always a lot of excitement at the Smith home. In addition to an fun St. Patrick's Day celebration, we spent a morning at the "awesomest park ever," had an outing to the zoo, bought new swimming suits for the boys, colored, did puzzles, played with trains, sang songs,--and for the grown ups, there was going out to dinner, late night banana splits (thanks to Spencer) and a pedicure for the girls. It's always a let down to come home to my mundane life.
It's hard to believe that at 8:3o this morning I was in Dallas Texas and by 2:00 in the afternoon, I was hiking in the Arizona desert with my brother. My pioneer ancestors would be amazed!

YAY!!!!! (and Yay to Katie for making you do it!) Did you take any pictures of you and the grandsons on your trip? That is a good picture of you out in the desert. Where did you guys go?
Yay! Yay! YAy! YAy! YAy! It looks great. Good work and welcome to the blogosphere!
I had to check your blog out after hearing you started one! It is really great, I wish my mom would blog, but she can hardly email!! I am glad you had fun with Katie and the boys- it looks so fun! It is still cold here and there are no flip flops in our near future! Katie said it is really hot there- I am jealous!! Enjoy your blogging!!
I am so glad you have started a blog!!!I will look forward to reading it! You look beautiful!
I agree with Traci... you look great. So excited that you started a blog.
Wahoo. I'm so glad you're doing this-I had a feeling you would sometime or another. I think it SUCH a great way to keep in touch, and I'm most definitely passing your link along to my mother. I started a family blog and my family hasn't yet seen the light. I can't wait to show them yours as another example. My mother claims she doesn't have anything to write about. I disagree. I'm so glad you were able to see Katie, how fun for them and you! Happy blogging!
YAY, for starting a blog. My mom is getting hers together. I will let her know you have one.
I think it is wonderful that you have started a blog. Way to go! I love reading Jeanine's and her friends's blogs. I'm glad you had such a great time with your grandchildren. I'm sure the time went way to fast.
Hi! I am one of Katie's Ohio friends- just had to check it out. It looks great- keep it up! :) It was always nice to see you when she lived up here!
