Look What my Baby Daddy did!

I know I have not posted for months but I have been waiting for Shane to complete the nursery. He spent hours perfecting it. Fist he drew it, which was the easy part for him, then he perfectly painted it which took hours and hours. I would easily say he put in over 80 hrs. of work. He has said he would only do it for his kid maybe only his first because it was sooo labor intensive. You may think a barnyard mural on the wall is cheesy but I love it! Little Davis will probably never really appreciate it because to him it will be what he knows. Shane is so funny to me. He is an over preparer. He wanted to make sure every little detail for the baby is ready. He even bought a car seat last week and installed it into my car! It's kind of funny to me everytime I jump in to see the seat just waiting. Soon baby Davis will be here and all will be well. we would love any visitors that would like to come and see the room and the baby. Well thats all for now. Once the little guy is here I will start a blog, we will be the soggy phrogbottoms.

Hello Its me...

It has been a long time since I posted on the blog. First, I would like to say that I love reading about our ancestors. What a wonderful resource we have. Thanks Mindurs and Bam pa. I have been really busy getting ready for the upcoming Legislative session. We have many issues, both good and bad, that we are monitoring right now. Things seem to be getting more and more complex as we draw near.

I am now done with the MUSS! I turned all of the responsibilities over to the President. It is good to be done, but it was nice to retain that link on campus after I graduated. I had a great time at the U, but now it is time to move on.

Well, that is all I have for now... I will try to be better about posting on this thing.

Golden Phrogs

Phrogs:

It is done. I have posted the first of (hopefully many)biographys on family members. Mindy is my editor and will post the pictures. She wisely is putting one at a time pictures on the site. This way I won't get overwhelmed and quit. I will also edit and provide dates as time goes by and I am near records. Mindy and I have the pedigree charts ready for posting also. We will get them up this week so you will know where these golden phrogs fit in. When Mom's family gets together later this month I will also try and track down her geneology and add those Phrogs (can I say that about the Smiths?) Hopefully Mom will help with the biographys on her folks.

Love,

Old Men Don't Cry

Phrogbottoms:

The two happiest things that have happened to me this week were brought about because of Mindurs. First, She has been there to make the key board sing helping me complete two 14-16 page papers for my historic preservation class, complete with powere point, notes and technical bibliography. Second, Mindy has put that mighty fine picture of my Grandfather Dewar on the Golden Phrog site.

I know we all mightily appreciate how considerate, softhearted and talented our Sister Mindy is when it comes to family. This time she has gone way past the extra mile. Way past helpful, past duty, past love, past the good Samaritan thing, and even beyond self sacrifice. Yes she is in the Celestial Realm of perfection when it comes to "showing up" when it counts most. It makes me proud. Thanks, Mindurs.

Introducing *Golden Phrogs*

Hi Bampa!
I noticed that Mindurs made you a site to write all of those great family stories. I added a link to it under "Phrogbottom Favs" so we all will be checking frequently for family stories. So let that Welch blood of yours course strong and get to work!

Note to MIndurs: Where are you getting your cute templates?

Best Brothers

Only a true Phrogbottom knows the significance of Best brothers!
Superkid wanted to be, "all comfy and snuggly" with Tadpole. Do you dig how Superkid likes to hold Tadpole's little hand? Superkid wants to be part of every activity that Tadpole does. It is a sure fire way to get Superkid to take a bath. I just start singing the bath-time song and stripping down Tadpole and Superkid is at my side begging for a bath. I LOVE my boys!

Abizella's Dream Christmas Tree

Last night we went to the Festival of Trees and enjoyed looking at all of the beutiful trees. Below are the highlights of the festival. Enjoy!


Eat your heart out Abizella - this tree has everything Elmo! So CUTE!


















This is Nate's kind of tree - everything UTE!




















This upside down tree was my favorite. So creative, who thinks to turn a tree upside down and then decorate it. It definately is a Cindy kind of thing to do and I loved it for that reason!
