I can use my blog again

It has taken me forever to be able to log on to my blog again.  Somehow none of my passwords I use worked.  Very strange but now hopefully fixed.

A couple of things I have been working on well what pictures I have on my computer anyways.  
This bunny wreath I made from tulle coat hangers and wire for the ears  it has since had eggs added to the bottom of it

 I had these bottles painted black and my son got bored one day and made this with them for his grandma.  She loves them.
 Welcome porch sitter and candy bouquet that I made for my mom for her birthday back in February.  One of my friends is in the process of buying her first house so I have plans to make one for her also in the next few weeks.
 As many know our family loves to spend our spring, summer and fall at the race tracks.  Now we have four kids that race Karts so starting in a couple of weeks we will be back to that track every Friday night until the end of October and can't wait.

My brother took a four year break from racing his beast.  His daughter plays year round softball and a lot of travel is involved.  He decided to take the break when his race car partner and best friend got sick he started having many strokes and different things.  One thing that they always were talking about was getting the beast back on the track.  My brother promised him they would do a couple of races last year but he had to get better enough to work on the car he needed him in the pit with him.  His friends oldest son graduated high school last June the next day they had his graduation party, the next day my brother got a phone call to hurry and get to the house he was ready to leave this earth (he wanted to make his sons graduation and party).  The last promise my brother made to him was to have the beast on the track before the end of the season.  A little less then three months, many hours in the garage, motor rebuilt, new body on her and many hours of talking with someone on graphic designs.  No one was allowed to see the car after a point until the day of the race.  Graphics were done the early hours of the morning of the race.  This is what we seen when the car when we were finally able to see.  He had his best friend/race partners face every where the number is on the car.  One thing he always wanted to do was race her one time.  Never would do it though but he got the ride of a life time that day.  A great tribute to a great man that was family to us all.
 Of course I can't complete this post with out pictures of at least some of my babies.  We are a huge Syracuse basketball family.  We tell Kayla all the time yea we love our Orange basketball and you love basketball players.  Which is completely true.  We were at the mall prom dress shopping a couple of weeks ago, we went into one of my favorite sports stores and whom is there but one of this years basketball players.  She was so excited she talked to him forever.  I still can't believe how short he is.  She is 5'5" and has maybe 2 inch heeled boots on in this picture.  She is very happy to have this picture to add to her collection of SU basketball players which most we have seen at the same mall.
 Just a few of my favorite pictures from Kenny's senior picture shoot this past fall, I think the first one was what he turned in for year book but that was back in October so don't really remember.  I can't wait until all of Kayla's are done we are having the same person do her pictures.
