All Blissed Out


A friend reminded me of this picture that was taken just a few days after Cadi and I got home from China. The quality wasn't that great, but I wanted to do something with it.

Ten Years



Cadi and my Gotcha Day was last week. It's was ten years ago they placed that funny looking little baby into my arms. I did a scrapbook page and then remembered I didn't do one for Josi's 7 year gotcha so I did one for her too.

Life is Beautiful


This is from a couple of weeks ago. Cadi and I went for a walk on the breakwater and I caught this shot of her.

Build a Bear? Build a zoo!


Living in Alaska builds character. When you order from Build A Bear it takes over 5 weeks for the package to arrive. When we were in Oregon this summer Josi saw that there was going to be a new zebra so she opted to not buy something when we were in "America" Instead she waited until September and ordered and then waited and waited and waited. She sure had a huge smile on her face when she carried the box out of the post office!

So who knew...

I can hang shades...I decided when we got the extra money with our PFD that I was going to buy curtains and shades for the downstairs windows. I've never had any in the dining room and I always thought it was just a shame to block out the little bit of light we get in the winter. BUT with fuel costing over $5.00 a gallon I decided that I need to do whatever to conserve on the fuel. So I ordered a curtan and rod first and got that put up last week and then I decided I liked that so much that I ordered shades and they came last night. The first one was really hard and confusing and it probably took me over an hour and one split knuckle to hang it. Then after dinner I decided that I had enough in me to attemp at least one more. It went up much faster so I got both of them up and the mess cleaned up before the girls went to bed. I really like them. They are the kind that either pull all the way down or drop down from the top. That way I figure we can block out all of the neighbor's house and still see the veiw of the mountain. (If it ever quits raining...) Actually it quit for a little while yesterday and everyone's spirits seemed to soar!
Cadi is having quite a bit more homework this year. She is really taking the "study every night" seriously. She decided that she wanted to rent a guitar from 4-H on Friday. Great deal $20 for a year. So she is learning bells, guitar, trying to get her 1000-2000 pages read, and study. She started basketball last night too. Josi is loving 3rd grade. She already has her 1000 pages read and is writing like crazy. She is constantly inventing things and if she ever finds that perfect invention to patent she will support me in my old age. I don't quite understand how her brain works, but it's definitely in a different way than mine or her sister's works.

Obviously not enough fishing...

Rain Rain Go Away...

Cordova usually has about 160 inches of rain a year. That I can deal with, but we are getting a whole lot more than that this year! I'm pretty much sick of it and then I have to remind myself that if this continues throughout the winter we are going to be buried in snow and then the rain doesn't seem all that bad...
The good news at the Moffitt household is that the entire living room floor is painted, throw rugs are down, furniture is in new exciting positions, and Josi says she feels better without the carpet in the house. It is one of those "why didn't I do this sooner" things. Love the painted plywood floor right now. Seems very warm with the burgandy color.
Other news in the household...Cadi is in beginning band. She is on the percusionist track and is starting on the bells. What a nice plesant beginning instrument! : ) She is also getting guitar in her music class so who know maybe she will eventually become a rock band all by herself!
She is working on the Paint the Plane contest that Alaska Airlines is having. We're already thinking a Disneyland vacation!
Both of the girls went fishing again this weekend, but didn't catch anything. I guess I have to get them out fishing more often even though I despise fishing. When we got out of the car Josi said, "Oh is this open again today?" I think she meant the Fishing Derby, but it sounded a little odd...
She is loving third grade and has already read the require 1000 pages for this quarter even though we are less than half way through. She is always inventing things and is constantly on the lookout for round things to be wheels. If you have any extra tape centers or toothpast lids send them our way and she will add them to her collection. I figure if she continues in this way of thinking she will invent something big and be able to put me into a good home when the time comes!
I'm enjoying the preshcool part of my life this year. 3 and 4 year olds are fun!
Speaking of school I guess I better get off this thing and get breakfast going

Kid's Fishing Derby




The girls went fishing this Sunday for the Kid's fishing derby. Cadi caught a decent sized silver.

The frame is something called folded frame #4, but i'm not sure where I got it.
