TweetFriday was the end of our Cub Scouting life. We have been in since 1st grade as Tiger Scouts and Friday was our Blue and Gold banquet to celebrate the Webelos II completing scouting and for those crossing over to Boy Scouts. We chose to not cross over. The boy isn’t real big into camping, […]
Tweet Snowflake came to our house on December 1st last year, and started her activities the following day with one last one on Christmas. She used toys around the house with some great results. Some days she gave the kids little gifts, or suggestions like making cookies. Our elf is about fun, and not so […]
TweetWe start our Elf on the Shelf on December 1st. That’s when we start our Lego Advent calendars as well. That’s much easier for me to remember. This is our second year of welcoming, Snowflake, to our home. I thought Snowflake would like to send a note announcing her upcoming visit. What fun is it […]
TweetI realized I haven’t written in I don’t know how long, so I thought while I sit here enjoying a Redd’s Apple Ale I would write a little update! So, my son started 5th grade (next year Middle school…Ack!) and my daughter started 1st grade. I am in my last months of being a Cub […]

Little sister (age 6) enjoys building with her brother as well. We decided to have a […]
TweetI am joining Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop this week, and sharing about my favorite photo I took in June, which happened to be when we took our family vacation. This past month we went to St. Louis for our vacation. We decided instead of city hopping we would stay in one city and do fun […]

TweetI always have these great big plans (in my head) for each holiday, and every time it seems to sneak up on me! I end up spending all this time searching for ideas that I don’t have much left for the actually doing part. I thought why not put some of the things I have […]
