Wordless Wednesday - a crack in the snow ;) he he he


...

The funny thing about this, other than the obvious, is that Abby is always the first to point this kind of thing out. She'll say it to me about me, or about other people. Very loudly. In public.



"Mom! That person's BUM CRACK is hangin' out!"


*can't you just hear it?* :)

keep it simple

So, of course I have been stressing over the holiday season. It still seems like it should only be August. I spend too many days in zombie mode that time passes me by. So we hadn't been Christmas shopping yet, and it was 2 weeks away!!! So I cry ... :) of course .... and then we went the next day and got what we wanted for the kids, and it was all good. A couple of ends to wrap up, but nothing worth crying over any more ;) Sheesh. So after all the mood swings, I got a cleaning bug the other day to sort out the toys and piles we have around to make some room for the new coming in. I brought some boxes home from work a few weeks ago (I actually don't remember bringing them, one day JB's asked what was with all the boxes in the garage... oh "I brought them from work" HA!) so I bring a couple in for pile sorting. The kids got ahold of them and here it is.

FREE. No stress. No horns. No buttons. No nothing. Just a cereal box from Winco. This went on for a good 30 minutes.

Merry Christmas

grade school flash back

Remember read-ins?? When you got to wear your pajamas to school and bring your pillow and snacks and read ALL DAY LONG??? What was the point of that? Did the teachers just need a break? Anyways, we rotated out the books in the bookshelf and Ab spent all day over there sorting and "reading" stories.



Then Dax came over and was walking over the books she had sorted and she got mad...

Fun day. Perfect for the snowy cold weather that kept us inside. For a little while at least ;)
