Our Oliphant Herd: Changes to Madison
http://oliphantherd.blogspot.com/2015/03/changes-to-madison.html
We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. I was thinking today as I walked up to the elementary school, that I needed to run to the Re-Store - which has moved to a less convenient location. This led to me thinking about other businesses that have changed location over the years we have been in Madison and whether it was a good move or "less convenient." These are the ones I came up with. Movies - We usually went to the tw...

Our Oliphant Herd: Just a Housewife
http://oliphantherd.blogspot.com/2014/12/just-housewife.html
We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. This morning I found on the kitchen floor a paper that I taped up in the kitchen nearly 5 years ago. It is a little worse for the wear, but it still represents the sentiment as well as ever. While I have never referred to myself as a housewife when I could help it - I always preferred the term Home Maker - the idea is the same to most. Posted by Mama Mie. An Elephant Never Forgets.

Our Oliphant Herd: 2013-04

We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. The End of an Era. We recently celebrated a big milestone in our family. After 28 years of having children in some sort of car seat, we are finally finished with them! A few years later we invested in a new rear facing infant seat. This one had a handle so you could carry a baby, still in their seat, with one hand! Similar design to our set with seat and stroller. The design of ou...

We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. End of Another Era! We seem to be at some sort of milestone stage, two "era's" ending in the same year. Not long after we got a little Toyota for all the driving when we had 5 or fewer people, to save on gas money and the joy of parking a 12 passenger van. All of the kids living at home currently don't remember any other van, than the "Great White" van. And today I sold it. Kim, C...

We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. It's snowing in Madison. It has been all day. I just finished shoveling about 5" of snow off the driveway, and you can't see my footprints where I started. Definitely a winter day. While I was outside I heard song birds, singing and chirping. They sounded cheerful. Just from the sound of them I would have thought it was spring. Now which is it? Posted by Mama Mie.

We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. Stay At Home Mom. As a Stay-At-Home Mom for the past 20 years, I just wanted to post this "info graphic" I found on Facebook today. Sometimes it seems like my time is worth little to nothing. I like that someone found a way to compute a value based on real wages. :-). Posted by Mama Mie. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). An Elephant Never Forgets. Fire for Amanda and Gordon.

http://oliphantherd.blogspot.com/2014/01/how-god-really-helps.html
We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. How God really helps . I read an article in the paper recently that had this concept, and it really spoke to me as truth. God may step in once we’ve reached the end of our rope. But most of the time, he gives us the gumption to braid more rope. And that kind of miracle is the type that usually helps us the most.". Jerry Earl Johnston, Deseret News, 22 January 2014.

We have a herd of oliphants. It grows and shrinks as any herd would, but overall it grows. These are the stories of our herd. All I can say is Wow! Wow, Wow, Wow! I can't remember the last time I watched something that just left me saying "Wow! The last close thing was an off Broadway production of "The Lion King," and it was close to wow. The new musical movie of Les Mis is Wow! Did I say it had Wow factors? I mean, Wow! Ann Hathaway as Fantine. Russell Crowe as Javert. Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean.
