After-School Activities

We are so busy with our after school activities. All that rushing from place to place. Thankfully, we don't have much of that. When "school" is done it's time for fun, and fort building. The new toy I was waiting for is right there. I can now see what I am doing and I'm not squinting at little type

One More Disney Day

We attempted to go to the One More Disney Day on Feb 29th. Unfortunately, so did most of Southern California. Disneyland was full by the time we got there. It took us close to 2 hours to roll the mile to the park in traffic, get a parking pass, and decide to turn around and go home.I save the parkin

The Battle of the Palm Fronds

I strongly dislike palm trees.They don't serve a purpose, aside from taking up some room, and being the tallest thing on the horizon sometimes. They don't give fruit, they don't give (hardly any) shade, you can't put a tree house in them. You can't turn them into firewood (well, I've never tried). T

Echo, Echo

Doorbuster is becoming quite the echo. I can go to the store and say "We need to buy a trash can." and he will repeat "Buy trash can! Buy trash can!" Whatever Princess says, he will also repeat the last word she says, but always like he's asking a question. It's funny! He also likes to steal everyon

30 years of FUN

I turned 30 yesterday.I'm writing this while one child throws wadded up paper snowballs at the other, and I'm being stabbed by a pencil wielded by my 2 year old. I'm going to write, get everyone dressed, and then take them for a long lap around the neighborhood. That will get the antsy out. As a pre

MIA- In the Trenches

It's probably best read with an empty stomach and lots of sympathy. I have had a few blog posts sitting in my head that I was going to blog about this week.Then Doorbuster threw up.
