Swimming Pools: Cheap Fun with Kids!
Saturday March 13, 2010We’re working hard to trim our budget, so we aren’t as footloose and fancy free as we used to be when it came to spending money on fun kid activities. We recently discovered Arlington county pools have “free swim” for kids on Saturdays. Meaning, you arrive between 1 and 3pm, pay for the adult(s) and [...]

Thursday February 25, 2010This week’s You Capture theme is “Shapes“. Here’s a few examples from around the house this week: We made pretzels yesterday, following Sweet Pea’s recipe. Moments ago, I wondered what could be keeping Adam so suspiciously quiet. Apparently, he likes rectangles. And greenbacks. Lastly, a look at some circles that can always be found in [...]

Thursday February 18, 2010This week’s “You Capture” theme is Kisses. I wasn’t on the ball and didn’t get any good kissing pictures, so I decided to break protocol and look back over the years and see what kissing pictures I have taken in the past. You won’t be impressed with my artistic eye, but hopefully the cuteness of [...]

Saturday February 6, 2010Well, around 5pm, the snow stopped. I think they called for it to last til late evening (maybe?). Anywho. shortly after my post about how we were all hunky dory, the power went out. Dang it. We were out of power for about 2 hours and it just came back on. Thank you, Jesus! We [...]

Well the blizzard has arrived, delivered on it’s promise, and hasn’t left yet. The media is freaking out about it, but we are enjoying the novelty, for now. (Ask me how I feel to be snowed in on Monday). Yesterday, school was canceled pre-emptively, so Wendy was invited to a friend’s house for a playdate. [...]

Friday February 5, 2010So, apparently a blizzard is heading our way. Perhaps even The Mother of All Blizzards. My local jurisdiction sent out an emergency alert warning, “Another severe winter storm, with near blizzard conditions, is forecast to hit our area Fri., Feb. 5 through Sat., Feb. 6. Be prepared to shelter in place for 3 to 5 [...]

Tuesday February 2, 2010Sunday was a beautiful morning, with perfect conditions for sledding. Sunny, not too windy, and not so much snow that we couldn’t drive our minivan to the nearest bestest hill in our neighborhood. It took some effort to get all of the children into their snow gear and out the door, but finally, we made [...]

Saturday January 30, 2010Another snowfall has hit our area, so we are hunkered down in front of the fire. Some of us are playing “Trouble”… some of us are causing it … and some of us are blogging about it :) We’ve been working on some Valentine’s decorations, so I thought I would try and be arty and [...]

Wednesday December 23, 2009We are dug out and getting around, but it is still pretty snowy around here. On day two of the big storm (Sunday), there was nary a plow in sight. Lucky for us, one of our neighbors motored by in his bobcat and helped to dig us out. He made a huge snow pile right [...]

Thursday November 12, 2009Today was a good day, a productive day, but it was one of those days. It was cold, yucky, and no one wanted to curl up and take a nap, except me. It started in the morning. Adam has a lovey, “Lammie”. He sleeps with it day or night, or he doesn’t sleep at all. [...]
