here they are! on my magical floating bookshelf. (: (: i've accumulated several more since this pic but you get the idea. it looks like an expensive hobby but i got almost all of them for twenty to fifty cents each. the most i paid for any has been two-fifty. my oldest book so far is from 1869, and my most valuable is worth i think around five hundred monies. my most very favorite is this

I took my kids on a treasure hunt! I took them hiking where i had hidden clues all over, and they followed the clues and their treasure maps to find the treasure. oh, and they also had to use a metal detector at the end! it worked perfectly. then they dug up chests of gold coins, 100$ each in gold dollar coins. i think it will be something they'll never forget. (: they can't wait! the little

THE AWFUL TEMPLEI went Christmas shopping the other day and got this really cool book with pictures of places around the world in it. I was showing the kids all the places they've been to and I showed a picture of the Eiffel Tower to Addi and asked if she remembered what it was called. She said with confidence, "Mm hm!

Chree-stmas Chree-stmas ti-eem is here...We once again upheld the tradition of the gingerbread house. I had to convince Daylen that we don't need to do it exactly how it is on the box because he was frustrated with Addi's candy placement.

Hey look, I'm starting a family blog! In case you couldn't tell. (: I just thought it'd be a fun thing for me and the kids to do because I noticed how much they love watching themselves on my myspace slideshows. Once they see it they're gonna love it! Plus it's about... 10 easier than scrapbooking. Snow Day!It's a crazy azy blizzard out there! School's delayed tomorrow so we all get to sleep in.
