No Name

Here's a Video of No name... I just love how she plays! Today on my lunch she was hiding under the couch from the dogs and as soon as they walked by she would jump out at them.

Fishing

Ira goes fishing almost every weekend. He and his dad have found a new spot the really like. Well I normally stay home. Not that I don't like fishing, I just like to be home on my day's off. Every time they go out it's the samething Ira will call when he's about ready to turn on our street and ask me to open the garage door. The boys go CRAZY!!! Because They hear the truck pull up but "dad" hasn't come in yet. So they pace back and forth between the front door and the back door and then come and look at me and it all begins again.

Drake and Remington pacing back and forth

Finally both Grandpa and dad!!!!!!! they were happy!!!!

New addition to the Coltrin Family

Meet No name Kitty, She is our new kitten that Ira and I adopted on Friday. So far so good with the dogs. By the look in thier eyes I think they are wondering why in the world we did this to them. (I think our family is thinking the same thing)

New Blog

I've started a new blog, if you look on the column to the left you'll see a link to it. It's called What's Cookin'. I started this because I love collecting and sharing recipes. Feel free to look around (at this point I only have 2) Leave a comment if you try something and do or don't like it.

The Eye

Ira was tinkering in the garage welding and grinding his boat trailer. Well As always, safety comes first, Well most of the time. Ira was grinding away on his trailer and forgot to put his safety glasses on. Yep you know where this is going, he got a piece of metal in his eye. It took all day and part of the evening for me to convince him to go to the hospital. and after forcing him to lay on the floor and force his eye open and flush his eye with eye wash. (UGH!!!) Well we got to the ER at 11:30 and they put us in a room right away. The doctor came in and (who looked like Dana Carvey from Master of disguise..."turtle turtle") He was able to find the piece of metal, which wasn't any bigger than a tip of a safety pin. He gave Ira some drops to get the rust out of his eye and we were on our way with in an hour.

Root Beer

Ira and I thought it would be fun to try something new. We turned our kitchen into a laboratory. We found this kit at Cabelas (where else would we be shopping???) for making Root Beer.

So Ira sat on the counter and read the directions to me.

We had to wait 3 days to see if our experiment worked.

Well Ira confirmed it had the taste of Root Beer and the carbonation of Soda.
