My New Treasure

My too generous friend, Ashley, gave me this GORGEOUS dining set. She was down-sizing and offered it to me. I am in love. We have room for everyone to sit with out rubbing elbows. We have two chairs and a high chair that we pull up to the table at dinner time, but we all fit comfortably. Thank you forever and ever Ashley. It is one of the most beautiful tables I have ever seen!

Sleeping Beauties

I Had A Bird!

Yes, that's ME with the famous Dysart Elementary Eagle.

Sam is the school mascot this year. He is loving it.

Here he is with some of his fans. They wouldn't leave him alone. They wanted to know who he was. He did a great job keeping his secret, but made it fun for the kids.

Cheering with the ladies.

When he first got picked, he told me the only bad thing was that he had to hang out with all the cheerleaders. I think he thought they would be annoying, silly girls. He has since changed his mind.

Fun in the Trees

In mid January, I pruned all our trees. The kids loved the huge pile of branches. They dug their way in to make hiding places and such.

They also had a blast climbing in the trees. Timmy climbed almost to the tip top. He is fearless. Sam was worried about him with the other kids shaking the branches as they climbed below. So much fun!

Yes, this is what our trees looked like in mid January. This wasn't last fall. I am not that behind on posting.

Joe VS the Volcano Cowboy Song

It would be great to have this on my phone. The guy who uploaded it somehow did it. (See on ItsAGoodDay.org)

Pushing Daisies - Bird House In Your Soul

It is rare when two quirky tastes come together. I love They Might Be Giants. Steph found Pushing Daisies. We have enjoyed season 2 quite a lot. Here is a clip where these two worlds meld.
