**GIVEAWAY CLOSED** Congrats to comment #128, musiccityace of If You Think Round is Funny. She’s our winner! Raise your hand if you don’t like chocolate. Yeah, that’s what I thought. As a child, I was not particularly fond of chocolate cake, chocolate ice cream, chocolate milk (you get the picture). Give me a chocolate candy…
Bliss on a Bush
First of all, please excuse Necco’s nails. I have since made her cut them. Long nails, park play, and berry picking are not a good mix. The other night, Necco and Reese were begging for a picnic. Why not? I packed up the entire dinner (Black Eyed Peas and Tomatoes with Sweet Corn Cake. Not…
Madame Butterfly World of the Pretty Things’ Sister
A short while ago, I got an email from my blogging friend, Beth (aka Manic Mother) letting me know that I’d won a giveaway on her blog for a whole set of pink and purple handmade (by HER!) frilly girl dress up clothes. I love winning (so do my kids). Reese was the first one…
It Never Goes Away (+ a Giveaway!)
**CONTEST CLOSED! Winners are Pati, Alyssa, Shauna, GAhome2mom, and BlazeandCrochet! And, just FYI–the first comment was one of the winners! I used to have a laundry day. It’s a good plan, don’t you think, to consolidate your laundry to one day of the week? I long for the days when I could do that. These…
The New Craze in Gardening
Forget the backyard garden plot. Forget buying fertilizer and watering daily. Weeding? It’s a thing of the past. The gutter! It’s the new craze in gardening. No need to water. Great access to sunlight. Low up-keep! I am going GREEN! A few weeks ago, I looked upward when walking into my house and noticed green…
Give Me Your Best Shot, America
I have a confession to make. I didn’t take many pictures this week. It was just one of those weeks. When I went through my pictures from the last 7 days, I found some rather boring photos. I had the pictures of my gutters that desperately needed cleaning (the pressuring of my husband finally paid…
Simple Times
August 2004. Lake Tahoe (California side). Twizzler, age 3, walks to the beach. He figured it was easier to carry his bucket on his head than in his hands. I have always loved this picture. Back then, Twizzler hardly talked. He was a late bloomer, waiting til he could speak in full, correct sentences before…
19 is Enough
It was quite tricky to get 19 kids (cousins), ages 12 to under one, to sit still for a picture. This particular shot needs a caption. Let’s hear your ideas! Want more Wordless Wednesday? Visit 5 Minutes For Mom, Go Graham Go!, Three Peas, and The Not So Blog! And there’s more! Look: Moomette’s Magnificents,…
Is it Just Me, or Do You Notice a Trend Here?
….and is it any wonder that Twizzler had the time of his life last week at Cub Scout Day Camp? As a woman with NO experience with weapons (not counting nails and wooden spoons, of course) it is kind of amusing to witness boys’ obsessions with guns and all other weaponry. I have to admit…
Pool Hop
This week’s MckLinky Blog Hop theme is Favorite Photo. Considering that I do a favorite photo feature every Friday and I tend to take tons of pictures, I figured that I’d include a couple of my favorite pictures from this weekend. I honestly wish I could spend every day at the pool. The weather lately…
