Day 150.  Even though I am terrible at updating this blog, I have been taking pictures everyday.  What a journey.  215 more days to go, to grow, to be challenged, to get frustrated, to get inspired.


I am normally not a fan of processed junk for my kid's snacks.  We picked these out special for camping earlier this month and then forgot to bring them, so today they both got to enjoy Cheese Kurlz.  My justification is partly that I support a local company by purchasing this brand and that I really love them too!

I am usually not one for nonfiction books of this length.  Best book I've read in years.

Popcorn is best eaten by the handful, unless that is you are my younger daughter.


She realized that she needed to transport some to the opposite side of the room if she hoped to get any and eat it one piece at a time.

Memorial Day.  I took one picture at the parade we went to, one.  I was disappointed, but then again we can resist a 1 year old with the dust buster and ear muffs cleaning up before bedtime?

When we first moved into our house, I had Columbine all over the back flower beds.  It just seemed to spread every year to the point where I thought I would have to thin it down this year.  Well, this year I only have one.  This pink beauty.  On the other hand, my Alium multiplied this year after being in the ground for over 4 years.  A trade off, for sure, but what isn't to love about these giant purple globes.  Did you know you can spray paint them after they seed and they will keep color in your garden until fall?

 We traded babysitting with my best friend today, so this little guy spent the evening with us.  The girls were absolutely enthralled with him and kept bringing him toy, after toy, after toy.  They especially liked making him smile and laugh.  I love this second one and he peeks around my youngest with a look of, you aren't leaving me alone with these two, right?
