Today's teacher gave us packets of work to do and page numbers on where to find the info if they needed help.
She went on to show me the white boards (yes, those covering the wall back there as well as another off to the side that you can't see) and said to feel free to write on them, and take own the posters if we needed more room.
Nobody but a worried mother would give those kind of just-in-case instructions when she hadn't given us board work to do in the first place.
I sent this pic to a couple of friends with a note about them knowing where to get this equpment now should they decide to swim laps next week at the YMCA.
That would be funnier to you if you sat with us every week during our children's swim lessons and watched elderly swimmers do laps in speedos and snorkeling gear.
Add sugar to taste (you'll need less than you think).
I snapped a picture at the light and then got away as quickly as possible!
Actually, I called 1-800-2ChaCha and asked what the best way would be to cut insulation.
2 minutes later, they sent me a text with my answer!
Kids are gone for a few days (spring break). So I get to sort through toys to send upstairs, put back in the box down here, send to the dump, and donate somewhere.
They'll know stuff is missing... but they never are able to figure out what it is.
Notice the snowflake bells on the front?
Take a closer look at the glass to see the springy Easter clings.
The sad part of this that they are still both appropriate.
Bring on summer!
I'm going to love this thing!
Talk about your everyday miracles...
Prayers were said for simple, inexpensive fix.
This is the place that took care of it. We always use them because they do great work inexpensively. Still, a car repair is a car repair, right?
This one turned out to be a bad connection thay only cost him $27!
Praise the Lord!
Ella & Lauren go off the diving board.
Lauren was excited to go, but afterwards refused to smile at anyone. "That was not fun." she said.
Ella, on the other hand LOVES it. (No video of Isaac as he is still unconvinced.)
Yeah, that's snow.
Yes, it is APRIL.
No, I don't live in Alaska.
Could someone call the local weatherman for me and tell him to pull the plug on the snow machine and crank up that sunshine?
Yep, I told you about them yesterday... Rib Shack leftovers.
I ate them earlier, but now my mouth is just watering looking at this picture!
This is my friend's baby... she was having one of those days when I took the pic. I'm having one today! (But it will get better.... it always does!)
I believe strongly that we each choose our own attitude moment by moment.
So, now I'm going to smile and find something good to post about.
Flowers on the store shelves that look like this mean there will be some outside soon!
Lauren loves flowers too.
I don't know what is best about Rib Shack, the awesome food, the leftovers, the post-Rib Shack-coma, or the fact that J and I don't even have to say the name of the place.
We are on the same wavelength on a lot of things, especially good food.
Today -after no previous food conversation- he said "Should we get something light to eat now and have a good dinner later?"
My response,"I think if we are out running errands, I can wait for dinner until 4, you?"
He smiled because once again we knew what the other was thinking... Ribs! (They open at 4PM)
PS The pictures are good, but don't do the place justice. I didn't remember to take a pic until I started eating already.
NIKI!
ME!
Todd & Scott
One of the two walls Niki and I insulated today.
This will be the sanctuary.
There were lots of people helping at the new church today morning. Niki and I spent the morning hanging insulation.
It was actually fun, (itchy, but fun) and it helped get the church just a little closer to being finished.
