First of all, this is my 300th post. What in the world have I been blogging about? Pretty much nothing. And you’ve been reading my nothings. Lucky you! Secondly, my posting this week has been a bit erratic because I’ve been at the Land of a Million Dreams Nightmares. Otherwise known as Disneyworld. Normally I’m […]
I’m about to walk out the door to JoAnn Fabrics. I shall be buying fabric and sewing a pioneer outfit for my oldest daughter for the Pioneer Trek this weekend. It’s a tradition of Mormons to recreate a pioneer experience for the teenagers every few years. Of course starvation, death and cholera will be omitted […]
For How-To Tuesday I’m going to tell you how to have a good Halloween. So what if this is entirely non-applicable for another 364 days! You can memorize this list for next year. 1. Carve Jack-o-Lanterns. Roll your eyes when your 10-year-old daughter says that pumpkin guts make her sick. Try not to yell at […]
Today is the 7th birthday of my youngest girl, Adelaide Amelia Clementine. For her birthday she asked for a skateboard, a Texas Longhorns T-shirt, new tennis shoes, and a basketball hoop that is more her size. Can you say tomboy? (Sweet shot, Ada!) Finn, on the other hand, did not want to try out the […]
This is a parenting tip that I just barely learned with baby #5. it’s so advanced and so counterintuitive that only the most advanced parents may employ it*: If your child starts to throw up, DO NOT pick the child up and dash madly for the closest bathroom. You will only leave a giant trail […]
Has everybody heard about Stephanie and Christian? Stephanie Nielson (Nie Nie) is a beautiful mom of four who has been an avid blogger. (Her beautiful life featured on her blog will just break your heart.) She and her husband were in a terrible small-plane crash in Arizona a week and a half ago. The pilot died, […]
I got together yesterday with my old high school friend Kim. Jasper and her daughter got along very well. As in “madly in love”. It’s so cool when your kids get to meet your friends’ kids–and they get along! Sorry the pictures are blurry. I was laughing so hard I couldn’t hold the camera steady.

Here it is——->>>>>> You guys, I thought the oil/shortening assignment would be an easy one! So far my list of good girls is short: Anybody else have something they want to tell me? In case you have been wondering where to store your food, I thought I would include a picture of our […]

Remember being a young teenage girl and realizing that you might just maybe, possibly smell bad? One day you’re spending your babysitting money on Wacky Packs and Hubba Bubba and the next day you’re riding your bike to the drug store to buy some Love’s Baby Soft, because what if you stink?
