they were fine when they were on Papa's lap.

calmed them down some and tried again... can still see tears in AJ's eyes, but over all a decent pic.

21 & 22 May 09 - Poison Ivy sucks!!!

I never thought I was allergic to Poison Ivy.... I WAS WRONG!!!... I got this wild hair to pull this old tricycle out of the hollar....

it was tangled in weeds and under brush... but I was determined that I was gonna get that puppy out...... little did I know that the weeds were poison ivy......

2 shots and a round of steroids.... along with benadryl, allegra and Ivy-rest..... finally it went away.




the culprit.... was it worth it??? ABSOLUTELY!! ain't this trike neat???
