Wordless/Wordful Wednesday

Quinn often makes cards for us at school Today he brought home cards for all three of us.. and hid them for each of us to find. Could he be any sweeter?

Is it weird that I am a little giddy about “almost” getting Quinn in this silly little hat for his first 5 birthdays? The numbers only go to 5, so he is done with the hat now. Maybe I should find a “big kid” version to continue the birthday torture tradition. If not, I still [...]

I am amazing. I know it, you know it, my mom knows it… heck her pan knows it. That is my mom’s pot, her best one up at the Tree House (my parent’s little mountain retreat).  This is the after picture. After it had been soaked overnight and scrubbed “clean”. Scrubbed with a brillo pad [...]

And not to be out done, Elliot had his 1st day of school this week! He is officially a preschooler, albeit in a short 2’s class, 3 day a week. Elliot was SO excited to go to school, just like Quinn! He is only there for two and half hours but he managed to have [...]

Monday was Quinn’s 1st day a school and no one cried. And by no one, I mean me! Thankfully, there was never a concern about Quinn. He was so excited! Me on the other hand, I wasn’t so sure. I did unreasonably bawl when I withdrew Quinn from his old preschool. Somehow I felt like [...]

Buddy {Thankful}

June 13, 2012 · 7 comments

It’s been 3 weeks since I had to put Buddy down. 21 days he hasn’t followed me around like an extra shadow. 21 nights without him sleeping slammed up against my legs. 21 days I know he isn’t sick. 21 days I’ve still wondered whether I did the right thing. It’s getting easier but tears [...]

Peter and I saw The Dictator this weekend which was very funny but (fair warning) also very offensive. Tower Theater had a fun Rock of Ages Movie promotional display set up. Of course Peter jumped right in. Doesn’t he make an Awesome Rocker?!? Rock of Ages will definitely be a date night movie for us [...]

It’s getting pretty darn hot around here! That means drinking water is a MUST with any outdoor activity. Like going to the park.   Of course its way more fun to drink AND play in the water.  No pool? No problem because the drinking fountain can be fun too! How do your kids keep cool [...]

100 Degrees of Fun!

April 24, 2012 · 2 comments

Did you hear the news? We hit 100 degrees on Sunday. As in April 22nd.  The second earliest time ever. And ironically enough on Earth day.  Global warming perhaps? Maybe. It was definitely the perfect day to paint a garage. Right?!? Unfortunately that is just how it worked out for the garage building extraordinaires. So [...]

Luckily this was a freebie photo opportunity from the Foothills Mall. It only cost patience and tears And at least the Easer Bunny and I took a decent picture.
