Phew! I Made It to the End of the Whirlwind

Phew!  Is right!  This past week has been nuts!  I hardly made it home... dishes piled up... I have no clean clothes... the weeds are taller than the tomatoes... the grass is unruly... there are no healthy foods in the house...  That's right... this past week was the last LONG week of CET. I worked… Continue reading Phew! I Made It to the End of the Whirlwind

4 Weeks of CET down – One More to Go before the Summer Rush is over

Phew!  Summer is moving along so fast, yet, in the middle of the week it feels long.  This week has been so busy! Last Saturday, John, Lilli and I drove Bend for the Celebration of Life party for my Grandma White.  We met Kimber and Ray there.  They had fun "camping" on Grandma and Grandpa's… Continue reading 4 Weeks of CET down – One More to Go before the Summer Rush is over

Summer is Moving Along

Doing a little catch up. Last Saturday John went on a little hike.  He left on Friday evening and slept in his car.  In the morning, he got up and hiked to Jefferson Park in the Cascade Mountains.  It looks very pretty.  However, I don't see myself making this walk.  He said it was harder… Continue reading Summer is Moving Along

Celebrating Our Independence!

Wow!!! What a crazy week!!!  We have been so crazy busy.  We started the week working way too many hours and we ended the week working way too many hours! We worked on a float for the 4th of July parade for my theatre kids.  I also helped my friend's cast create a simple set… Continue reading Celebrating Our Independence!

Summer is Officially Here… CET Has Started

It is hard to believe that the end of June is here.  I am realizing more and more that we aren't very good at taking time off and recreating.  Our "recreation" revolves around work... or so it seems. Lilli and I spent time together working at the high school.  She wanted to learn the sound… Continue reading Summer is Officially Here… CET Has Started

Finally… a Boring Week

Gosh.  I wish I had pictures to show you our week... alas, I don't.  But we were busy. This was the first real week of summer.  I taught a bunch of voice lesson.  Lilli slept until noon nearly every day.  (Lucky girl).  Lilli and I did some spring cleaning.  We cleaned the front bathroom, the… Continue reading Finally… a Boring Week

Trucking into Summer

Well... School is now over and we are racing into summer.  Lillian got to go on a little road trip with Chad.  He was in Oregon for a visit and drove to Idaho Falls for a wedding and back.  Lilli went to help keep him awake.  Other than being left at the mall during the… Continue reading Trucking into Summer

Busy week!

Once again it is dance recital time.  Sadly, without glasses I could not really see my beautiful dancer do what she loves.  My sound booth is just too far away.  Her sister took these pictures of her solo and some kind person took a picture of her in her ballet costume.  I do love to… Continue reading Busy week!

Blinded by the Week

It has been an odd week.  On Sunday I fell coming home from church and hit my face hard on the street.  I was a bit loopy and dizzy for a few days.  I ended up bruising my cheek, loosening my teeth, and destroying my glasses.  It was a long week without glasses.  I can… Continue reading Blinded by the Week

Summer bucket List

At the end of a school year I am very ready for summer. The trouble is, my summers are more of the same thing I did all school year long due to the fact that I continue teaching theatre for a children's theatre group. For whatever reason, this year I am extra tired and just… Continue reading Summer bucket List
