In which Monday is nothing short of manic

4 youngster...swimming suited...pool cravin'...water dreaming...

The above is the state we found ourselves in upon arriving at our pool
only to find the pool was closed due to some sort of chemical
imbalance....

A few thoughts later water coloring in the tub seemed to ease the pain
of an evening swim missed

In which the Children become pirates

The kids found this old book gramma gave them... This books comes
complete with general dress-up ideas & instructions...we were lacking
the materials needed to become cow folk...so pirates it was & I must
say I feel it was a good choice considering those who were to wear
them...

In which the boys learn to sew

If you have not yet checked this blog out you should...she also wrote
a book called the Creative Family: How to Encourage Imagination and Nurture Family Connections & has a new book called Handmade Home: Simple Ways to Repurpose Old Materials into New Family Treasures!! One
of the greatest ideas in the book was to have you children draw a
picture, then embroider it!! My boys love it...jaxson spent around 3
hours working and ultimatley finishing his, it will become a pillow
for his bed today....hooray for great ideas!!!! { jaxson says he will
start another picture pillow today}

In which we see how the children eat

Lunch was good

In which a little peice of organic heaven arrived at my front door

For a mere $30 a week local organic produce will be left on my door
step upon a Tuesday!! Life is good all is well ....the cilantro is in
the process of filling my home with it's divine smell...I am
happy...can the smell of organic produce make my day...oh yes....yes
it can!!

Funny Monday

pool...the little lady in my life...well I'm am a close third in the
line for here affection...well I'd like to think it's close...see
GRANDMa is most definitely A--#1---Premium--first choice...Daddy
claims all her daily affection---then yours truly...now that we see the
order this funny Monday should make sense....Emme saw Chaucer in the
whilst i prepare dinner back carrying device & decided that she
too needed to be relocated to a position upon her Father...he gladly
accepted and the result was quiet a funny looking three year- old-in-
moby &

the most Joyful duo
