Clowns,and Pirates,and Price Hikes Oh My!!



Well as "luck" would have it, some time ago I registered for a few free circus passes at my neighborhood library and would you believe I won them (maybe because nobody else signed up, but hey!!) and wow what a show it was. Chris and I were talking on the way there and realized that we had probably never taken our kids to a circus before and couldn't remember why....WELL when we got to the box office to buy our last remaining ticket (only won four) we remembered to the tune of $28.50 per ticket...add that up for a family of 5...oh yeah and if you are the unlucky chap that decides to get hungry or thirsty while at the show, you can easily quench your thirst for a mere $3.50 a water bottle and for a measly $7.00 you can be the lucky recipient of some popcorn!! (Needless to say, our kids just had to be thirsty and hungry, cause uhhuh!!) But a VERY wonderful and worthwhile use of our free tickets was had by all!! Sorry for the quality of the videos...

Love One Another


Well long time no post...but here goes for those who care....I have a job!! There, that's what's been going on....I struggle with myself making sentences, stories, lectures, conversations, (you see where I"m going) longer than they need to be..(see, I didn't need to just say that sentence) so anyway prepare for a long ramble!! I am working at my two older kids' school as a temporary (meaning at least until the end of the year, but who knows after that) Special Ed Assistant. Though one would probably think you would need special training to do so, and for parts you do..this job was truly a gift from a loving Heavenly Father above who knew getting a job in a few years when Chris goes back to school full time might be a struggle to say the least with me not having a degree, or well special skills of any kind!! So therefore as short-lived as it may be, this job will help put a little away for the future. Now onto the video...got this from a friends' blog and saw the little girl about two seconds in and it just made me smile and so very sad at the same time as I thank our father in heaven every night for the health and "normalness" of my little familys' bodies,brains,etc. but also makes me wish for that day when these precious children that I work with at school will experience a "fullness" of their bodies,brains,etc. as well. Enjoy!! ;)

Valentine Prep and Delectable Dirt

I have recently found the joy in making pillows (well covers for my existing pillows) and decided to scour my house for any and all fabric that could even be construed as anything Valentiney (definetely a real word btw) and came up with these four..then I have a set of votive holders that I decorate for each holiday with paper and ribbon....now if you are still reading this novel we made some yummy "dirt" even served in little gardening buckets completed with homemade pizza!! Yummy!!
