Post image for best of…

I am going to be posting some fun pictures from our new home soon–we have had some beautiful weather and great walks here (well, the kids are walking–I am staying home and enjoying the pictures of the walks, anyway!). I have been swimming with the kids almost daily–it’s so fun to enjoy that with them, and [...]

Post image for the lamest post ever

I want to write, really I do. I am just so tired. I don’t know why? Addie Jayne’s due date was moved up to May 23rd. I think I am due the same time as my friend in Hawaii, which is kind of cool. I will probably be induced a week early because of my [...]

I will write more about our hotel stay, plane ride and getting here adventure as soon as I have time, but wanted to post this picture, because it so accurately describes our entire adventure–a little messy, but overall a great experience: Here are a few pictures of what will be home for a long time.

Post image for virus free and visiting angels…

The ranch was attacked by a virus, but don’t worry, the website is now free of danger.  Absolutely clean according to Google, so it must be true. I got to spend time with my best friend from college (in the olden days before the internet) last week. She used to sing for the Mormon Tabernacle [...]

Post image for a peek at the new online ranch

I just got finished redesigning a really fun blog from a mom from the UK.  I feel so…international.  It’s called Shelves In My Mind. The most fun I had was the header, which resembles an old school library catalogue card (talk about VINTAGE–I lived it.  I am that old). I also had a lot of [...]

Post image for what do people do all day?

The seasons are what a symphony ought to be: four perfect movements in harmony with each other. –Arthur Rubinstein Winter In the winter, we read all day and do school work and spend lots of time in the kitchen. Spring In the spring, we clean the house, tidy up the wild outdoors, and savor the [...]

Post image for five things for friday: incoherent edition

I am participating in Women In The Scriptures Five Things For Friday Blog Hop! I was going to do an Easter edition, but I’m too tired, so I thought I would just randomly write whatever comes to mind today.  You have been warned. Also, if you are feeling like you missed out because it’s not [...]
