Celebrating Life: April 2015
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 24, 2015. We've been on vacation! BlueEyes" came to us just a few days before we were scheduled to leave for a trip to Branson. We got permission to tote him across the state line and he got to have some Branson fun too. We met some of our CO peeps there and had a good time catching up. They stayed an extra day to do SDC then drove down to visit at our house for a couple more days. FUN! We've had some progress in a couple of areas. 1 He's responding to his name (sometimes). 2 He's ok with t...

Celebrating Life: September 2014
http://artags.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 29, 2014. LB came in with 2 pieces of bad news. 1 Korrie was carrying around a chicken wing that did not have a chicken attached to it. Bad dog. They've been getting out a lot this week. On the one hand, I like them to eat the bugs in the yard. On the other, Korrie is just not trust worthy enough to let it continue. And now we cannot find the rest of the chicken. 2 The bees were swarming again. Why oh why are they being so difficult this year? Thursday, September 25, 2014. I used tabbed...

Celebrating Life: PlayDoh FAIL
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/06/playdoh-fail.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2015. In an attempt to bring a little more structure to BlueEye's day, I've been looking up some fun toddler activities and busy bags on Pinterest. There are so many creative moms with great ideas on the cheap. I hit Savers this morning and also the dollar store and grabbed a few things to get started. Spit it out. Not in your mouth." Over and over again. So I'm thinking he's not quite ready for this activity. I'll save it and try again in a couple of months. I tried it again today hopi...

Celebrating Life: This Week's Goals
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/08/this-weeks-goals.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Saturday turned out to be a great day for a reboot. We had 3 crock pots going at once, 5 loaves of bread baking, and muffins for Sunday morning. In addition to that, I even came up with a menu. Wonder of wonders! In the meantime, Honey had the boys washing windows and doing outside chores. I can't even tell you what a difference the clean windows make. I had no idea they were so disgusting. I also came up with some goals for the week. Tea party during read aloud time Friday.

Celebrating Life: March 2015
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 26, 2015. On The Third Day. Yesterday was the third day of Spring Break and the weather couldn't have been better. It was the kind of day where you open every window and throw the dog bed outside to air out. I also put the clothes line to good use because I love me some clothes time line! Plus our dryer is not feeling so good and sounds like it has a fist full of rocks rolling around in it. We didn't have anything planned for the day so it was a good time to get in some yard work. So I bo...

Celebrating Life: Fun Fridays And Homeschool Art On The Cheap
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/08/fun-fridays-and-homeschool-art-on-cheap.html
Thursday, August 06, 2015. Fun Fridays And Homeschool Art On The Cheap. Fridays are going to be a little bit more special this school year. Friday is our house cleaning day. With all of us working hard together we usually get it knocked out pretty quick. It will also be our art day and tea party day. It'll also be our art day. I've been looking around and thinking about how I wanted to handle art. I've decided that Pinterest and the library is going to be my friend! I am looking forward to Fridays! A Lit...

Celebrating Life: Some Quiet Time Goodness
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/07/some-quiet-time-goodness.html
Saturday, July 11, 2015. Some Quiet Time Goodness. I have been praying for the Lord to clear some space for me. Space to think and read and pray and blog and journal and maybe even make my bed. Today 3 kids got invited to a friend's house and Honey took everyone else shopping except the babies. Both babies are asleep and I have been working furiously! Pulled out some things from the freezer that I am trying to empty. Made stuffed jalapeno poppers with Haley's peppers. Made cabbage and sausage. 5 Honey an...

Celebrating Life: 15 Minutes of Better
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/07/15-minutes-of-better.html
Thursday, July 09, 2015. 15 Minutes of Better. One of my summer reads is called A Sane Woman's Guide To Raising A Large Family. I love all Mary Ostyn's books and I'm sure we'd be fast friends if only we could meet in person. So I started asking myself some questions. When this whole parenting gig is up what are the things that I will be happy I took the time to do? What do I NOT wanna miss out on because I'm busy doing stuff that doesn't really matter and will only be undone later anyway? Because A Lot C...

Celebrating Life: Because A Lot Can Happen In Only A Week
http://artags.blogspot.com/2015/07/because-lot-can-happen-in-only-week.html
Saturday, July 18, 2015. Because A Lot Can Happen In Only A Week. Never mind about a lot of that stuff I said last week. This week life is different and things have changed. Last week it wasn't so hot so it was ok to give up on the pool. This week OH MY it's so crazy hot. So we cleaned the pool and filled 'er up. Now the trick is keeping it nice. We've had a hard time battling the green and the gunk so I set an alarm on my phone to treat the pool every week. And he's only 5 weeks old! 15 Minutes of Better.

Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Just A Few Pics From My Phone. Taking out the chicken plate and this one met her on the way. She got first picks. Two of my favorite people. Isn't this an incredible picture! He stole some pumpkin when Josh was making this. A jack-o-lantern with boogers coming out his nose. You mommas of little girls will NOT understand this. LB helping Nate with his science. Have a fun day. Tuesday, October 21, 2014. A Thirty Pound Catch. It was a good afternoon. It totally dictates my wardr...
