Four down, twelve to go. . .

A quarter of the way through the year. . .

Are you smarter than fifth grade student?

It is getting weird when my daughter Havalah is bringing me homework that I have to study the chapter myself in order to help her. As a confession, sentence diagramming was my weakest link in the subject of English. Frankly, my fanciest diagramming terms come from the movie Oscar. Oy!

The laborer. . .

Today they had neighborhood clean up which meant they deposited dumpsters throughout the area for folks to dispose of their junk. And boy do we have junk! I kid you not, four hours later and the six closest dumpsters to my house were full. I managed to get all the stuff I needed out into one of the bins but what a goat rodeo. I'm just happy it is done.

I interpreted for Daughters of Utah Pioneers. It is really an interesting group and a history nerd's paradise.

A great ad. . .

My sister's blog had this and I loved it.

I love Shabbats with my children. . .

My Irish twins are so funny. They can play for hours at a time and keep each other entertained the whole time. They play with boats, balls, blocks and whatever else their small hands can grasp. Most of the time they pass an object between each other. They also squawk and babble at each other. You wouldn't think they are really communicating anything except once in a while they will start laughing like they just told the funniest joke in the world. This always makes me wonder. . .

My Ma's cool photo. . .

My mom has an awesome photo blog. If you haven't, you should totally check it out. Anyway, she recently posted a photo near and dear to this blog's heart so we had to share. . .
