skating


So, it worked out.  We got to go skating.  And watching.  For $10 you can skate and watch for two full hours.  But first, you need donuts.


The rink is kept at freezing...........I'd love to go sometime in July.......it doesn't feel so great when it's cold outside, too.  At home, you're all warm and you don't really bring the things you should.  Live and Learn.


The kids have a great time.  The rink is never full.......so they're not a real threat to many people.




This is the thrift store I bought a par of leather duck shoes for almost $8......and a couple weeks later they fall to pieces.  Live and Learn.  I will be more careful about used shoes in the future.


This was pretty funny.  A SOLID camo car.  I figure if we hit it, all we would have to say is:  WE DID NOT SEE IT.


Toys R Us.........NOT.  Not one single Frisbee in this store.  What kind of a toy store is this anyway?


We always end the day at Starbuck's.  Starbuck's is always a good way to end a day.  And begin it, too.

Looks like you NEEDED that Starbucks!

(I like the way you're living -- and learning!)

Now I'm going to see what else I missed. I see the title "manual" below and don't remember reading that...

Don't Be Idle

This is Zephyr. She is the most discontent, unhappy cat I've ever seen in my life. She is selfish plain and simple. All she can think about is HER belly. This is not done in silence. When I get up (early), she's been up for hours wasting away. She's died of starvation 8 times. Don't be like Zephyr. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs   "Who are the men who are most discontented?  but idle persons-- for they lie around and find fault with everything."   (page 50-51) Zephyr is an unhappy cat. Not a happy camper.   How about you? IDLE lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha) shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain) without purpose DISCONTENT dissatisfaction with circumstances displeasure Have you no weeds to pull? No list to make or finish? No bread to bake? Nothing to mend or fix? No corner to clean? Nothing to learn? No letter to write? No project to fin...

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have alw...
