MOVING

I know this notice is mostly for Grandmas and Grandpas only, however I am moving back to Blogger.  For what I used this blog for, I realized that my old free site worked just fine… Dykstras.Blogspot.com.  However, I plan to keep my name, DykstraDash.com.  So, if you type DykstraDash.com into the add

Genius or lazy?

I might or might not have ironed the boys Upward Basketball stars onto their shirts with my curling iron. **Edited to add: the stars peeled off within minutes of the boys putting the shirts on.  FAIL.

Chef Andrew: Part II

Earlier this week AJ and I got the flu.  AJ’s was fairly mild with slight fever, headache and “frequent” potty breaks (if you catch my drift).  I, however, was hit by a truck.  Excruciatingly sore throat, fever over 102 degrees, chills, aches…every part of my body hurt!  And extreme exhaustion.  At

Big A, Little A, What begins with A?

The other day, while on the way to pick up Andrew from school, AJ made quite the discovery. “Mom! BOTH of my names start with A.  AJ and Adam!

The other night Andrew was helping me prepare dinner, Broiled Tilapia Parmesan with broccoli, rice and salad.  Andrew was handling the fish, rinsing the fillets before placing on the pan.  After a few he started complaining, “Mom, these are getting flippery!”
