We went on vacation last week for our biannual family reunion (my mom’s side of the family). It was so nice to get away. With as much as Michael has been working, since we got out here we are on a biannual family vacation schedule. This year the reunion was in Tahoe, California – a two days drive for us…
Okay, so maybe tragedy is a little too extreme but it is bad news. Last night our little ladies did not get put to bed, the side gate was left open from our afternoon of yard work. We were in a hurry this morning so I did not check on the girls and we got home around eleven at which…
I, as many of you know have a serious Pinterest illness. I can spend hours pinning various items. I will be honest that most of my posts are for DIY and home decor things. My “Yumminess” board has a few recipes on it that are new to me. Some I have tried and some I have not. Since today has…
So you all read my last blog post… nod your head yes… Well, we went in today for the second x-ray of Zeke’s elbow and to get a cast and walked out with just a brace. Zeke and I were making bets whether he would be in a half or full cast and we walked out with his arm in…
Never Dull! So yesterday I woke up, did my usual morning things and the boys and I headed off to the pool for swim lessons and then to the park for our MOPS playdate. This is how we spent the morning… Ki practicing an assisted back float Ki fetching a float toy So while brothers are doing the above… Guess…
Our little ladies are getting bigger and bigger and harder to round up. We have been getting evening rain and I try to get the little ladies in their house before it gets too crazy. I know have a real life experience to the term… “herding chickens”. Those silly things! I think they are laughing at my shenanigans, cause I…
Just a few pictures of our girls… They are now nine weeks old and are getting bigger. We are getting excited about having eggs in the near future. We went to Costco this weekend to buy our eggs and the price has gone up dramatically. We paid $6.80 for two dozen and just a few months ago we were only…
My feelings towards weeds are growing from nuisance to hatred! Sakes alive… they grow so stinking fast and they are taking over the few areas that I have already cleared like two or three weeks ago. I resorted to searching Pinterest to find a solution… I found that vinegar is the miracle solution. Granted you could use a harsh chemical…
I planted our garden a few weeks ago and everything is growing nicely. I planted corn, pumpkins, watermelon, cantaloupe, squash, tomatoes, jalapenos, and a few other things… that are not growing – but the listed first ones are growing. Our yard at one time, so we have heard used to be a well kept little gardening oasis. After we moved…
Well this week I tried my hand at making envelope throw pillows. It was so simple! Like most sewing projects the cutting out of each pillow took way longer than the actual sewing of the items. I made three pillows and I love the pop of color that it adds to the plain blue couches. I will admit that although…
