Much Ado About.....DIDY!

It all started with a text message: Would you like a parakeet?

Of course as anyone knows; we love budgies!

so of course, we had to say yes.

Meet:

Thomas Didymus or Didy as we call him.

the first few days when we called "Didy" the

poor cats came rushing over to see what kind of treats

we had for them.Didy. Kitty. Sounds very similiar.

 they were very confused.

 you could see it on their faces.

He has managed to step right into his role as clown .

he chirps so cheerily.

We had forgotten how much we missed having one of the

little twits around. Thanks Kara!

even if he does think another budgie lives in the pan.:)

Going to great lengths.

you bring home a prefectly fine bunny.

Sit down to eat it.

and the next thing you know, we have a runaway rabbit.

This was a might scary, but we managed to spook him.

The lengths a Chocolate Bunny will go to,

in order to not get eaten.

How Not to reheat pizza.

If you have pizza or any leftovers you plan to reheat in

your toaster oven. Please use a proper metal pan.

Do not use a PLASTIC dinner plate.

I would say who this was; but I have been sworn to secrecy.

and no, it was not me:)

Much Ado About....how NOT to scramble eggs.

Do not throw them at vehicles.

No matter how hot it is outside; they will not cook

properly or taste good.

they run all over and make a big mess.

not to mention they smell bad!

So the moral of this sad tale:

unless you have teenagers who are willing

to wash dishes cars. please cook eggs on the stove.

Sad to say this is After! I took down a whole bunch of stuff

I felt kinda claustrophobic in her room.

which happens to match her favorite webkin cat.

still have to hang her heart lights over her bed. from aunt Marian.

and get a door:)

Much Ado About...Cherries

Much Ado About...Strawberry Picking

I took the kids berry picking Thursday. we were going to get

one box to split,since we had already made jam and frozen 

some; but I felt kinda silly going out to GreenBluff with Six

able bodied pickers and only getting one box:)

So we got three not quite full boxes.Good thing they don't

weigh them before and after. that's all i have to say about that;)

Jenna was the hardest working picker.

Jonah said he was supervisor.He directed people to where the best

berries were stashed. but I think he ate most of them:)/

Neven picked a lot,"but ask how many he actually put in

 the basket.". was Karis' suggestion. Nate said"I already

did my time now I want to eat some too."

In the end we had a good outing; getting home before

it started raining.

Much Ado About...BLUE BELTS!!

At looong last! The day has Finally come! The three

musketeers are Blue Belts. Jenna was so excited she couldnt stop

smiling. She kept Hugging her belt:). Neven claims his

smells like power.

Last time as white belts.

Jenna and Sensei Bowing.

on with the new.Jenna tried to put hers on but she did

it wrong so sensei had to redo. I think she was a bit

embarrassed.

take no notice of the people in the back:)

Nevens turn.

huh?

Our lives may never be the same. One day there

may be three pairs of hands as registered

weapons in the family.

Much Ado About....Etiquette

                                        How do you tell house guests they have bad breath?

or BO? They refuse to take showers, brush their teeth,

pick up after themselves, and take up all the room on the bed.

they beg at the table, and lick your legs. 

But they are happy to see you come home.

forgive you when you step on their feet.or trip over them.

But we are all looking forward to having their mamas

come get them.

Mention,the self-appointed Sheriff. she is so funny. When

Piddle gets out of hand all we have to do is get out

of her way. She tolerates him like an irritating little brother.

You can just hear her thinking,"there He goes again."

Pistol AKA Piddle. He loves to walk, and play chase.

He tries his hardest to get Jackson to play. But alas,

 Jackson. has no idea he is a dog.

His words to Pid."what is this "chase" you speak of?"

Then he hides under the trampoline.

much Ado About...GAK

If you happen to have 8 ounces of glue and 2 tbsps Borax

 sitting around and bored kids. You have all the making of a fun

afternoon.Pour the glue into a baggie. rinse the bottles with warm water.

dissolve borax. and optional color in 1/2 cup water.

pour into bag and

squish,squish,squish

and squish some more.till all the liquid is absorbed.

 Don't be scared the whole process took about 10

minutes.

We may never know, but it is so much fun!

Blow bubbles?

He's got the whole world in his hand?

*word of warning: food color will stain their hands.
