Somebody is Being Greedy!

I was scrolling my beloved Craiglist.com tonight and came accross a wanted ad in the Baby/Kids section. I always look at the wanted ads because I may have something they want that I no longer need.  I had to laugh at this particular wanted ad, however, because they appear to “want” everything in the toy [...]

The Birthday Bash

Mark’s 30th birthday was Saturday, as was his costume party.  It went very well, everyone had a great time!  (and a bit too much to drink, but that’s to be expected!)  Mark fashioned a Beer Pong table out of an old door and set it up in the garage.  We put a heater out there [...]

Bad Day to be Three

My poor kiddo!  He’s had a terrible cough that got so bad he couldn’t sleep, so this morning I took him to the walk in clinic and got him so meds.  We bearly had our coats off and he tripped and fell, splitting his lip open.  Freaking out, I grabed him and ran to the [...]

Why Your Dog Will Hate You on Halloween

I admit I enjoy puting Patriot in a Halloween costume each year.  He is 5 years old and has worn the same costume every year: an angel costume.  It consists of wings and a little halo that don’t bother him or make him feel like less of a man.  This year I was thinking of [...]

Feeding the Wildlife

We carved our pumpkins last Sunday and placed them on the deck off of our kitchen so we can enjoy them through the patio door.  I don’t bring them in at night since they are in the back of the house I’m not worried about them being smashed.  It never occurred to me, however, that [...]

spread the seeds out on paper towels (without the [...]

Pumpkin Day

We drove out to Berryland Pumpkins today for some pumpkin picking fun.  Just as last year, it was cold, windy and drizzling.  But that didn’t stop us from finding the perfect pumpkins! 
After pumpkin hunting, we ran through the corn maze (which was really neat, I’d never been in one before!) We crawled around in the [...]

I Survived Toyland

Today was the opening day of Toyland in Fleet Farm.  Normally not a store I shop at as I am not a farmer.   However, every year they close off part of the store and fill it with the hottest toys and the craziest, lowest prices imaginable.  They send out a catalog the week before opening [...]

Test Your Color IQ

Not really an IQ test, but a really hard test where you try to get the colors in hue sequence.  Best score is 0, I got a 7.  Can you beat my score?
