open your mouth

So- long time...no post. I have good reasons. This nice weather for one. Who can be inside with 78 degrees goin' on outside? Lovin' the weather. Lovin' having Donovan home. My 2nd reason is I've been getting ready for a garage sale. When the sun goes down and I have to go inside....I've been cleaning, organizing, and pricing. I love getting rid of things we are not using....and de-cluttering.

So tonight while I was working on folding some laundry, trying to teach Jack how to fold....he kept singing this little song. A song that Donovan made up to sing to Suzy while feeding her when she's lost interest in the main dish. Mainly when the dessert comes out...and Suzy sees something she'd rather have. I thought you might enjoy hearing the song. Jack did it on video for me. Do you recognize the tune?

Quote of the day: William asks Jack, "Why are you going to school all day?"

Jack replies, "Dude, Because I gotta lot of stuff to do."

professional hair styling

I am posting some pictures taken from last week....because the children have shared the illness and what was throwing up for them is bronchitis for me. You truly would not want to see current pictures of me. I have not washed my hair since Thursday. It is not pretty over here. Three days without washing is normal for me-my hair just hangs straighter and is not so frizzy when it's not so clean.


But after 4 days, I actually need a sweat band to keep the hair grease from falling in my eyes, thus making it impossible to type. So reflecting back to Saturday a week ago....here I am getting a style from 2 of my favorite boys. I absolutely LOVE when they play with my hair. If I close my eyes real tight and pretend it almost feels like a head massage.

The straight row of clips- Is William's professional styling. He has got REAL talent I tell you.

And now if I only could get them to learn to use the blow dryer & hair straightener I would be all set.
