As many of you already know, we made an offer on a perfect house in Florida this week and they accepted. So come October 15 (Jeffrey’s 40th birthday!!!!) we’re going to be Florida homeowners. Step one of Operation Move to Florida will be done. Now AL just needs to find the right job to transfer [...]
We had a fun time in Florida again! I hated to leave. First we went to the river. Thalia got to go boating (and drive the boat!), catch and release minnows, and see Little Bit and Brandy! Then we picked grapes at a vineyard. How fun! And we went to the butterfly garden at the [...]
So we’re driving home from the pool. I gave her some trail mix to snack on in the car. When we get home and pull into the garage, I turn around and Thalia says in this sweet little voice, “I spilled it”. Oh my gosh. What a mess! I was about to get mad, then [...]
We had a fun weekend. We had a picnic on Saturday and had Mike and Danna over to play Settlers of Catan. We had a lot of fun. And Thalia was a good girl entertaining herself by chasing the dogs all over the house. She was super hyper because she got to stay up late. [...]
We had lunch with Michelle, Robert and Joe last week. Thalia was shy at first, as usual. Then she opened up a bit. The kids made quite a mess at the restaurant, but we all had fun anyway. Then we went to the park in Old Colorado City and the kids played on the stage [...]
We had fun today… Thalia especially. First Thalia spotted a unicorn and gave him a big kiss on the nose. Here I am in my unique costume. Daddy and Thalia got to ride the ship swing. Thalia feeds a goat. AL feeds the chickens to see if Thalia can feed them. This is right before [...]
We did our usual grocery shopping this morning. We’ve taken a strong liking to a natural food store in town called Sunflower. They have really good prices and the freshest, yummiest food. Today I decided to make some salsa. I was shocked to discover that it turned out delicious and beautiful. So I had to [...]
It took me all week, but I finally finished my dress for the Renaissance Festival. We’re going on Sunday, so I barely made it in time! It looks much better than the pictures show, as always. And I did run into a couple of problems. I messed up on the skirt and didn’t cut out [...]
I’m finally feeling better today. A couple weeks ago I decided to order a dog clipper. I was tired of the groomers, and the clipper was cheaper than one trip to them. So I figured I’d give it a try. Today I finally had enough energy to give it a go. It turned out way [...]
