Musings on Chaos: Winter Wonderland
http://theashleyfamily4.blogspot.com/2013/01/winter-wonderland.html
I have a great belief in the fact that wherever there is chaos, it creates wonderful thinking. I consider chaos a gift. - Septima Clark. Sunday, January 6. Heavenly bliss. That's how I feel about snow. Utah snow. Snow that falls in either giant fluffy puffs or delicate, glittery single flakes. Snow that is then followed - usually within 3 days, and sometimes immediately - by glorious sunshine. Snow that you want. Enjoyable snow sport that does not get its fair share of recognition: snowshoeing! Ellie, si...

Jacobson SIX: Super Mario Birthday Party
http://jacobsonfive.blogspot.com/2008/05/super-mario-birthday-party.html
Wednesday, May 7, 2008. Super Mario Birthday Party. As, I have mentioned in a previous post, I made these invites on Photoshop and it was a big stress in my life, but they turned out just as I had hoped. When the kids get to the party they will get a Mario or Luigi hat and moustache. This was the most expensive part of the party for me the hats were a little over a dollar each (from Oriental Trading). I just used white felt to make the M or L circles on the hat, which I glued on with fabric glue. Yes, I ...

I have a great belief in the fact that wherever there is chaos, it creates wonderful thinking. I consider chaos a gift. - Septima Clark. Tuesday, March 15. All I have to say is this:. Sometimes, I just wish my house would blow up. Spontaneously combust. Why? These photos seem to capture life around here of late:. Ellie's cooking creation of 1/2 bottle of syrup, leftover milk, a freshly made muffin and some almonds. Abby, our overachiever/gold digger, who lost both. Front teeth this week. Abby, recounting...

I have a great belief in the fact that wherever there is chaos, it creates wonderful thinking. I consider chaos a gift. - Septima Clark. Friday, April 15. It's getting to that point. ADHD (without the "H" - official diagnosis) hCG = disastrously low levels of brain function and thus seemingly even lower levels of accomplishing anything. And no wonder they want to stay forever - wouldn't you if you had Dusty the horse living in your backyard? Yikes Maybe tomorrow. Or next month. Me: "Our big hammer? While...

I have a great belief in the fact that wherever there is chaos, it creates wonderful thinking. I consider chaos a gift. - Septima Clark. Friday, December 14. No This is not an announcement. Although I have been asked of late by more. Than two complete strangers "when are you due? And "does he (Patrick) know what you're having yet? Just checking out what all this hype over lipstick is about. Fridge samples for lunch! Helping change the trash liners. Helping himself to leftovers that. Mom was making -.

Musings on Chaos: October 2010
http://theashleyfamily4.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
I have a great belief in the fact that wherever there is chaos, it creates wonderful thinking. I consider chaos a gift. - Septima Clark. Tuesday, October 5. Although I write in beautiful, golden silence (Abby at school, Ellie at preschool) my mind swirls with bits and pieces of the last two (three? Weeks since my last post and my eyes are drawn to the tornado of my house and I wonder. "What was I thinking? Not here. Not here. In spite of the bus ordeals, semi-frequent time outs at school and addressing t...

http://jacobsonfive.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 18, 2012. Isaac wanted a video game party for his birthday back in November (yes, I know I am several months late). I was not feeling inspired, so went with a specific video game, Angry Birds! Isaac decided to invite all the boys from his class, this is the most kids we have ever had at a party and it was crazy! I made bird masks for all the kids. And bird goody bags. The kids had pizza and rootbeer for dinner. Then we played games. . Tuesday, April 17, 2012. Bring in the Clowns. We had...
