thoughts along the way: monkey business
http://shirleygirly.blogspot.com/2010/04/monkey-business.html
Monday, April 12, 2010. It's what happens when there is snow outside when we wish it were sun. Tails, ears, and a lot of monkeying around. Not to mention authentic looking monkey toes. And just when you think it's run it's course. They really start monkeying around! Hope your Spring Break was as eventful as this den of monkeys! April 13, 2010 at 8:50 AM. That is so cute and imaginitive! April 13, 2010 at 9:14 AM. April 14, 2010 at 10:26 PM. So cute and creative! April 20, 2010 at 4:41 PM. I like to think...

thoughts along the way: a day or two off
http://shirleygirly.blogspot.com/2010/06/day-or-two-off.html
Wednesday, June 16, 2010. A day or two off. I took the day off yesterday. I gave myself permission to catch up on my google reader, start a new book, wax my upper lip (nope not kidding) and have a do nothing day. all things I have neglected and put off since oh, April. (not literally.) and I just couldn't pull it off. But I didn't make it here. and that's ok. I have been telling myself it's ok that I have not documented our life for over two months now. I don't like that feeling. And look how happy pizza...

Six Times the Fun (and Chaos): October 2014
http://six-in-2006.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 24, 2014. A New place to call Home. I've started blogging in a new place:. Check out my thoughts, ideas, recipes and philosophies at:. I'm sad to report that my blogging skills could not keep up with blogger. getting my text to format correctly, my photos to upload easily and my format to look less than amateur was taking too much of the little time I have to write, so I've found a more 'blogging for dummies' kind of site that can manage my poor skills adequately. Hope to see you there!

Six Times the Fun (and Chaos): June 2012
http://six-in-2006.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 26, 2012. Brynley in 'real time'. Because my blogging has taken a back seat to my shauffering/mothering/volunteering this spring-into-summer, it seems I've left a lot of amazing life events in my memory instead of on this blog. That's o.k., except this blog is kept in eternal storage, where my memory is quickly fading. So here, as my last post, is an attempt to capture who my kids are 'in real time'. Let me tell you a little about Brynley. What she is doing. And in return we are trying to h...

Wednesday, October 03, 2012. Things my kids have said lately. As we walked through the new City Creek Shopping Center together last week-said:. Mom, this is a mall. But its next to a Temple! You are right Molly" I replied. But the temple is SACRED mom! We shouldn't be shopping where it is SACRED! Hmmmmout of the mouths of babes? At parent teacher conference last night (which I was impressed he wanted to attend with me) said something like this to his AP European History teacher:. Mom, the coaches said I'...

Six Times the Fun (and Chaos): December 2012
http://six-in-2006.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 12, 2012. Twelve minutes for twelve things on 12/12/12. Silly little trinkets and treats compiled for 12.12.12. But it was a good idea to acknowledge the uniqueness of the day. I distinctly remember my own mom celebrating 8/8/88. We had 8 people in our family growing up, it was a good idea to celebrate! The memory remains sweet and clear long since the calendar said '88. 12 minutes of goodness in our library on 12.12.12. This was the list:. TWELVE REASONS WHY ITS GREAT TO BE A GRAHAM.

Dom Voyage : January 2013
http://domvoyage.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 4, 2013. Wet and Windy Weather. My first week in England has been a real treat! Because none of the other student teachers will arrive until the 23. I have really been given the royal treatment by the school staff and others: dinners out, personal tour guides, and all-knowing locals to drive me about. I’m glad to get to experience a lot of the simple local culture of the countryside as well as partake in the touristy hot spots. I love it here. The air force bases are lovely and I am quite...

Dom Voyage : In Session
http://domvoyage.blogspot.com/2013/02/bud-normal-0-0-1-340-1942-16-3-2384-11.html
Saturday, February 9, 2013. Teaching at the intermediate school here on base is an incredible experience. The resources for these pupils are endless! My students are attentive and very respectful – a complete 180 form my last classroom. It has rekindled my love for education; moreover, I get to spend my time actually teaching rather than attempting to manage. While these children want for very little, they too live with harsh realities. My heart weeps as I watch the struggle. 8230;On a lighter note….

Dom Voyage : Collect Moments Not Things
http://domvoyage.blogspot.com/2012/12/collect-moments-not-things.html
Sunday, December 23, 2012. Collect Moments Not Things. While I thrived on living “wild and free”, I admit, there were times when my personal decisions were not the most conducive to flourishing finances, successful relationships, or a well planned future; however, I regret little. Every feeling, thought, choice and action has lead up to this very moment. A huge part of building a plan for my future was a vow to love the people I meet while collecting moments rather than things. Miss Frizzle: I’m pr...
