Do you ever wake up from a dream that bothers you for the rest of the day? That was me this morning. What is it about certain dreams? PB laughed out loud when I told him about the dream that was keeping me distracted while I got the kids ready for school today. Here it…
The lion and the lamb
I found this paper yesterday when I was cleaning up the desk and thought it was too good not to share. I think Taco got this paper at church sometime last year, and added his special touch to it (simple, but classic!). Reese and Taco were going through an especially rough period and fighting all…
Random pics
I was playing around on my computer this morning and fixing some files that Reese had shuffled around. A week or two ago, I panicked when I went looking for my cruise pics….and the folder was completely gone from my pictures folder. Reese has learned how to access the pictures on the computer, and I…
Prequel to the mice
When I wrote my last post about the mice, I wanted to tell the rest of the story at the same time (or why our mouse family is especially significant) but I just didn’t have time. So here it is….Last year was the year of the bunnies for us. It has not been uncommon over…
Oat, Emile, and the rest of the family
Warning–this post may not be for the weak stomached. I find it amusing (I have to!) but some people might find my story a little creepy. Last Friday, I went down to my basement storage room to get a can of something from our food storage. The can of whatever it was was sitting next…
Merry Christmas….a few weeks late!
I made it through the first weekend of the year in Primary. We kicked off our new theme (I am a child of God) and had a huge breakfast for the kids on Saturday. We fed the kids a couple hundred pancakes and fruit, played get-to-know-you games with new teachers, and spotlighted the new presidency…
Backwards….
I just typed out all of my posts about our cruise and then posted them backwards. Is there any way to change the order of posts once they’re posted? Regardless of the order, enjoy the pictures! Thanks to Karen, I was able to fix the order! Yay! And to answer Lori’s question….the kids were absolutely…
Cozumel, Mexico and my 2nd visit to TULUM
I visited the ruins at Tulum in 1993 on the last day of my study abroad in Mexico. What a difference 14 years has made! It was crowded and commericalized, but still beautiful. My only regret was not having much time to enjoy the site. We had a great tour guide that explained a lot,…
PrIvAtE IsLaNd in the BaHaMaS
Imagine a private beach in the Bahamas….and then put 2000 people on it! The last hour before our boat left was peacful, though! Dale, Am, An (below!), D, Da, and M snorkled. Notice, no Laura in that list. I just can’t do underwater. Everyone had fun while I babysat the bags and clothes. Again, thank…
Fun on the ship
Me, An, and Am in the pool. We only got in the pool one day. There was just too much to do. We celebrated Mom and Dad’s 30th anniversary on the ship. We all dressed up, took pictures with the ship’s photographer, and had another great dinner. The restaurant staff sang “Let me call you…
