My little piece of the world. . .

Life needs frosting . . .

I "stole" this picture from my cousins facebook page because I thought the saying on the box was as cool as she did (thanks Shan!).

100 years!

That's how old the Girl Scout organization is. They put on a huge production of fun stuff for the girls at Cal Expo. Here's some pics of our fun times!

Part of our troop and two sibilings. 

Hula hoopin'                                                                   Learning how muddy water turns into drinking water
 

 

Roaming dragon entertainment.                                    Hannah making a dress for girls in need. 

 

Writing notes to the troops.                                            Showing off their glitter tatoos. 

 

Planting seeds to grow flowers.                                    Horses/anthem before the concert started. 

 

Waiting in line to rock climb!

Hannah loved this part - all the way to the top!

 

"Mom, somethings dripping . . . "

Um . . . unless your eating ice cream, those aren't really words you want to hear right!?!

We head up the stairs and water is dripping out of the ac vent - enough to need buckets and towels!

 

 

Thank goodness for insurance! Turns out it was a cracked pan under the ac unit.

Sometimes . . .

you need to buy a little happiness.............I'm so glad the markets are open downtown now!

Right now . . .

Watching . . . people walking around the capitol

Drinking . . . berry propel

Wearing . . . brown pants, a print dressy top and tennies

Eating . . . ritz crackers

Listening . . . birds chirping

Avoiding . . . tax amendments

Wishing . . . we had more family time

Feeling . . . overwhelmed by all the May happenings

Thankful . . . that we are all relatively healthy

Craving . . . a treat w/ choc in it

Missing . . . my grandparents

Wondering . . . why I have so many headaches

Needing . . . sleep

Praying . . . Jordan will make it through 8th grade

Thinking . . . it's time to go back to work

Dreaming . . . we will take a vacation this year

Loving . . . that I took a break from work, sat at a bench in capitol park and journaled this

Spring printables . . .

Need a fun, free printable for you home or office - check these out from Naptime Delights. I've already printed this one (and it comes in 5 colors!).

I like the colors and banner on this one.

 

And this one is just too cute I couldn't resist sharing . . . it comes in other colors too - even pink.

 

Easter . . .

Our Easter was very low key this year. My dad got the flu so we didn't head up to the mountains (yet). We did dye eggs and the kids had fun finding them - multiple times! They started to crack but we didn't think much of it until Hannah hid the eggs and then we took a break, ate lunch, etc and when we went out to find them - 8 were missing!! Seriously!?!? No where to be found! We looked where she thought she hid them only to find tiny pieces of evidence . . . from Marley. She ate them!!! It's been a couple of days and she still hasn't been sick thank goodness.

 

State Capitol . . .

Trip 2 was to the State Capitol - we did the very self-guided tour . . . in the eyes of an 8 year old.
