Check out the photos below. Mmm, wondering what that spiffy specimen of Nature is? That pretty excuse of a feather made its way into our home, courtesy of Little Man. I appreciate Little Man's love of bugs, birds, sticks, rocks (SO MANY ROCKS) and many random creatures. Feathers also fall . . .
Oh the little things!
A couple of weeks ago, a group of five lovely women, myself included, ha, attended the Broadway musical Wicked. If you go to a an event, you need to go out to eat beforehand, correct? As we were breaking bread, we had a conversation about the somewhat recent service of ordering groceries online and . . .
Little Stinker Edward Scissorhands
The other night, while I was at Little Red's choir practice, a picture text from Mister appeared on my phone with the word "busted" under the photo. At first, I was confused and was wondering if our new canine, Lottie, had attacked one of the kids' stuffed animals. Then, upon further inspection, the . . .
Trick or Treat!
I have been hearing about Halloween costumes since February. No joke. Little Red is very enthusiastic about life in general, I totally appreciate that quality, and therefore, begins planning out her Halloween costume as soon as she's leaving her classroom Valentine's Day party for the day. Little . . .
Off to this school, then this school . . .
This school year, I've discovered that for absolute certain, the moms who told me that life only becomes crazier when you've not only got kids in school but in elementary and middle (then on to high school, of course), totally know what they're talking about. None of these women did it in a . . .
To have a pet squirrel or not?
Little Man has three loves outside of his family; Thomas the Train, the color green and squirrels. Yes, squirrels. Anytime we're driving, if there's a squirrel in my path when driving, Little Man yells for me to stop for the "squh-whoa". That's Little Man talk for squirrel. Anyway, this kid has an . . .
Here a ewe, there a ewe, everywhere a ewe, ewe!
With having ties to sheep, ha, my family volunteers every October (thinking this is year 6?) at the Trailing of the Sheep Festival held in Ketchum and Hailey Idaho. My sister has been in charge of the parade the past two years. Wrangling humans, horses pulling wagons and wooly critters, takes some . . .
Me want cookies!
Little Red and Little Lady have been pestering me since last week about wanting to make cookies. Coming off of the heals of our school carnival, which any school function for the masses is a lot of work and then our state having in-service days (3) where the kids are home but the teachers are at . . .
Track Tuesday!
My family is part of the Family Lions Club for our town and we work with the Lions Club fairly often. Beginning in September, the Lions Club began Track Tuesday for our families to practice for an upcoming relay race in the spring to benefit diabetes and the time to spend together participating in a . . .
Bat outta hell!
Yesterday, Little Man and I were going along with the flow of traffic on a local highway when all of a sudden, this sliver Mercedes went flying by. And by "flyiing by", I mean about 80mph in a 55. This car made us all look like we were sitting still. I was watching as this speedster was zipping in . . .
