Many of you know we had spent over a year (more like 18 months) trying to sell our house. During that time, I made a lot of comments to friends and family about my YEARNING to get out of town and live in the country. I have various temporal reasons for my desire (most of [...]

I believe a shot of Blue #1 and Red #40 did the trick…oh and some propylene glycol.

Okay, before any of you panic, the items listed in the title of this post are absolutely legal. In fact, most of you will be digesting them in large quantities in about a month or so. It’s food coloring…you can all take a deep breath

I believe boys are wonderful.

Case in point. Common everyday household items can be transformed into amazing adventures. This is Ethan’s “ship.” (Ethan actually asked me to take his picture in his ship. I guess it’s a single passenger ship.)
BUT, not only do household items become objects of fantasy, there are always fantastic sound effects to accompany the action. Ethan [...]
I believe this might gross you out.

I didn’t realize how nose picking was such an intricate process. Let me tell you, it is! Watch closely as Aiden perfects the nose pick.

2) I had to get in closer for Aiden’s Deep Dig Technique (DDT).
3) Ah! Extraction!!
Now, you’re probably thinking, “Why is she wasting her time writing about her kid picking his nose? [...]

Here’s your dose of encouragement for the day…just in case you needed it.

For weeks (okay more like an entire month) there has been a very strange noise at our house. It was coming from the garbage disposal. So, one would think, after a bit of investigation, one would find the noise causing element and remove it.

Then we tried again.
We [...]

I believe I might be able to make you like your laundry basket more.

Okay, let’s be honest.
Laundry stinks. Literally and figuratively.

It all started with this…
And he was intrigued…”What is daddy doing?”
“Hey dad, lemme’ in there!”
“Alright, I guess I’ll just let you play. Can I still listen? Please?”

My eyes have been opened to the scenery around me lately. I’ve recently picked up this little photography habit. Nothing obsessive just something fun to do that fits into our life as it is already. I will admit that I have pulled off the road recently to take some pictures.
How could I just drive by [...]
