Yesterday we took Hannah to the Hands on museum in Ann Arbor. She had “go to a museum” on her spring break bucket list. She had a blast. I formed the opinion that I need to plan these trips for days that they are less busy. The skeleton bike was one of her favorite exhibits. … Continue reading Reflection

Spring Break Bucket List Activity: Volcano
My girls have spring break on opposing weeks this year. That means we are not traveling anywhere. Aly could care less. Hannah still wants to have stories to tell her friends when she goes back, so we created a bucket list. First of the list was building a volcano. We started this activity by reading … Continue reading Spring Break Bucket List Activity: Volcano
OhMyGoodness!!!
Yesterday, my little bear brought home her kindergarten graduation picture and I am in love. While I am not a huge fan of the whole kindergarten graduation thing, I have to admit that her picture is too cute. She has learned so much this year, and grown in confidence. So proud of my girl. Thanks … Continue reading OhMyGoodness!!!
Pranked
My dog Ava is 13, which in dog years is basically ancient. She’s become hard of hearing and virtually blind in one eye. Still, she is the sweetest dog ever, and Hannah’s best friend. She is 100% ready for spring. The cold and the snow are hard on her old bones. She just wants to … Continue reading Pranked
Things That Are Too Much
Hello Lovelies! I hope you are all doing well. I was originally going to share a bread recipe with you today. But I have been sidetracked by the need to rant. Last month I cleaned out some of my social media accounts in order to remove stress from my life. It’s easy to do that … Continue reading Things That Are Too Much
Fizzy Green Eggs Experiment
Hello Lovelies! I feel so bad for not writing yesterday. I realize I’m not contractually obligated to write every day. It’s more of a personal goal. I really need to learn to accept that life gets in the way. Unfortunately, the entire day was spent driving to get my daughter from college for spring break … Continue reading Fizzy Green Eggs Experiment
A Is For Aces
Hello Lovelies! I hope this post finds you all happy and healthy. As I type this post, I am being held hostage by Princess Endless Fever. According to the doctor, it’s nothing to worry about; just the flu. All the same, I am exhausted and she is bored. We needed to come up with something … Continue reading A Is For Aces
Something Blue
Hello Lovelies! Long time no chat. It took me far longer to start feeling better after my bout with bronchitis than I expected. Then, just as I was starting to get my energy back, Hannah spiked a fever of 104. So now we are back to viral house arrest. Unfortunately that means that she is … Continue reading Something Blue
Circles
One of my goals this month was to participate in a photo challenge. Unfortunately, I have pretty much dropped the ball on that due to how long this dumb illness is dragging on for. But yesterday we picked up all the Girl Scout cookies that Hannah sold last month. It seemed like the perfect opportunity … Continue reading Circles
Felt Groundhog Finger Puppet
Hannah has been asking me to teach her how to sew since Christmas. Somehow we just don’t find the time, but with us both sick I kind of ran out of excuses, so we made a finger puppet today. It was super easy. First gather black, brown and white felt. You will also need 2 … Continue reading Felt Groundhog Finger Puppet
