The Clydes: October 2008
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 19, 2008. Jimmy and I got to have a little weekend get-away and went to see our close friends Greg and Jill. We flew into Atlanta and then drove to Charleston, South Carolina to tour a little bit of the city, and then we drove to Columbia to see the Tigers play USC. We had a fabulous time and are hoping to make another trip with them next year! The game was close till the end, but LSU ended up winning 24-17. Thursday, October 9, 2008. Sunday, October 5, 2008.

The Clydes: July 2008
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 28, 2008. Scout and Riley love to give me massages! How blessed am I? Owen took this picture after I just received a most relaxing back and arm massage from the girls. The past few days I've been sick and Scout and Riley gave me a foot and leg massage! Owen is not the touchy-feely type, but he did offer to read to me before bed since my head was aching and I couldn't read my own book. He read to me from a biography of Eric Liddell, and it's very interesting. Sunday, July 27, 2008. Zandra was...

The Clydes: Leaving a Legacy...
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2010/02/leaving-legacy.html
Monday, February 8, 2010. Last week I attended the visitation of the Grandfather of one of my best friends. He had been suffering from the after-effects of strokes for a few years, so although his death wasn't completely unexpected, it was still heart-breaking. He was 81 years old, and he had been married 64. Years Yes, no typo there - 64 years. He left behind his wife, three sons, one foster son, nineteen grandchildren, and twenty-one great-grandchildren. What will they say about me at my funeral? I wan...

The Clydes: December 2008
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 26, 2008. We had a wonderful Christmas. Jimmy carries out most of our traditions, so all I have to do is buy the kids their presents. It was surprisingly easy this year - each child gets two presents, and I bought them all on the Internet. I try to avoid malls and useless "stuff" out there being pandered to my kids, so I was in heaven being able to do it all from home. Let me just say that their love for cereal outweighs anything short of a Lego product. Wow. Cheap motel in East Denver e...

Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Can't Get. Last. Pages. Read. Sadly, this is a common occurrence in our household while I read. Kids got tired of me this particular morning and decided to film it so I could see how ridiculous I look. Point taken. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Some O'Dem Other Blogs.

The Clydes: November 2009
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 15, 2009. This is for Steffany. My friend Steffany wanted me to post something, so here's. We've been in Louisiana one month now, renting from Jimmy's sister until we find an acreage. We decided to move to Louisiana on September 27th, and we pulled out of our driveway eleven days later. Eight days after arriving we went to Houston and Austin for a week to see friends and family, and for Jimmy to compete in the 1/2 Iron Man. So who cares, right? Yes, who cares. I found out that, unfortuna...

Saturday, June 28, 2008. A Day at the Lake. This weekend we were invited to go to our friends Rusty and Kim's lake "spot" and just hang out. They are members of a private lake and Kim has been going there since she was a few weeks old. They spend. Single weekend there during the summer months. Our family had such an amazing time. The weather was perfect (not too hot! And the kids just loved being in the water. This is Rusty and Kim's "Hula Coupe.". The kids loved inner tubing. Even Riley did it! Our kids...

Sunday, March 22, 2009. For All Three Of You Who Read Our Blog. An Update. Happy 11th Anniversary To Us! I haven't posted since Christmas time! It was quite a relaxing day. Owen is thriving in the homeschool environment. The only difficulty we're having is I just can't keep up with him. Studies that I've scheduled to take the whole week, Owen is devouring in one day. He. To learn. Surprisingly one of his favorite things to study is composers! He also loves history. Riley is growing like a weed as well - ...

The Clydes: March 2010
http://the-clydes.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Yesterday I had to take Owen to the chiropractor at 6:00 pm We grabbed some apples, bananas, and clementines, our LSU popcorn bucket to collect peels and cores, and loaded up the truck. Can you turn on the A/C? Want it off. But someone. Which got me to thinking last night about spoiled American children. Yes, I did just go from A/C to spoiled American children. Do my children really have to always be at the right temperature? Can they not feel hot for a good while, or cold? I hon...

The Clydes: April 2015

Sunday, April 12, 2015. Top 26 Reasons Why I LOVE Homeschooling. 1 I get to spend all my days with my children. I get to see them in the sunshine and in the rain. Their best hours aren't spent with teachers I don't know. (If you're only away from your children from 8:00 to 3:00, when they're in school - not including extra-curricular activities - you've missed out on over 16,000 hours with them by the time they turn 18). 2 We get to mentor and discipline them all day, every day. 13 I know my children int...
