What I Learned in 6th Grade Today...

I love volunteering in my daughter's classroom, as well as having the opportunity to visit other teachers' classrooms.  Today I was introduced to an album by the artist of Jackie Evancho.  I learned she is 11 years old and has an amazing voice!  Thank you, 6th graders, for teaching me about your music interests.

An Evening with Mom


Whitney is getting to be such a grown up young lady. We had a great time hanging out at the mall together waiting for Shelby to get off work.

"Morning" Dove


This morning was a beautiful clear day and we were treated with a little cooing from a mourning dove. These doves rarely perch in the trees, so this was also a unique sight. We miss the sounds of Jordann's doves, but not the mess!

The Bedtime Routine


Demon would love to crash in Whitney and Jordann's room every night. It's quite comical to see him jump from bed to bed until he gets kicked out!

A Snow Day


Finally.....we have a little bit of snow for the snow dog. We accumulated just a few inches this year for the entire season. Hopefully, there will be more to come in the next few days.

Crazy Cat

This is 1/2 of the most bizarre cat duo I have ever seen.  Here is Hobbes with Jordann - this cat actually loves hanging upside down!

Photo Journal 2012

I have been inspired to revisit my blog and create a photo journal for 2012.  My goal for 2012 is to "simplify."  The picture for today is an image of my walk on a beautiful January day.  Instead of a typical cold, snowy season we are seeing temperatures into the 50s and lots of gorgeous sunshine!
