Kara's Korner: June 2011
http://karas-korner.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Our tour of the Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza picked us up on our hotel early on Tuesday morning. It was a nice big chartered bus and wasn't close to full. It was about a 2 hour drive inland to the ruins. Our tour guide was Rafael. He was witty and knowledgable, and we learned a lot about the Mayan culture and ruins from him. The serpent head and jaguar appear as symbols on the structures and in their writings. Sunday, June 19, 2011. Barry and I just returned from a 5 day trip to ...

http://karas-korner.blogspot.com/2012/11/november-thankfuls.html
Saturday, November 3, 2012. On every day in November up to the Thanksgiving Holiday, I'm going to write one specific thing for which I'm thankful. I already posted the past 2 days on Facebook. so here they were. I'm very thankful for all of my kids Bible class teachers. In this picture Kellyn has all her babies sitting nicely in their spot for Bible class. A few minutes later she was patting a book and singing "Jesus Loves Me". Nov 2: Today I'm thankful for homemade, banana muffins. yummy. I'm a Christia...

Thursday, November 24, 2011. Last night Ryan traded his green cuddly monkey, that he has slept with since he was 6 months old, into the box and got a stuffed monkey. The neck on the monkey cuddly was stretching off of the blanket part, and it was about to fall apart. Plus, as he gets older I didn't want his special thing to look so babyish, so I thought it was time to trade it in. Here he goes putting the green monkey cuddly into the box. It went so well, that we let Alyna pick an animal this morning on ...

Kara's Korner: Drama Queen vs Gymnastics
http://karas-korner.blogspot.com/2013/04/drama-queen-vs-gymnastics.html
Saturday, April 6, 2013. Drama Queen vs Gymnastics. 1 hour before gymnastics class yesterday, Alyna's big toe nail tore down the middle into the fleshy part and started bleeding. So I wasn't going to make her go to class if it still hurt her. I trimmed it down, and put a baindaid over it. She sat on the couch for a while to watch TV. So she promptly put on her suit because she wasn't going to miss an opportunity to flip on the bar. I said, "If you can't walk, then you can't go to gymnastics.". View my co...

Tuesday, September 11, 2012. In Remembering . 9/11. As I sat down this morning at the first fall meeting of my Ladies Bible Class, I wrote this at the top of my notes page. But then I stopped and thought about our topic for the class this fall. "Forgiveness". So I added on to the heading. Remember* .but also Forgive. That was a hard thought for me to write down. I don't want you to think of this as a political issue right now, remember that it's a personal one. Monday, September 3, 2012. I'm going to a m...

Monday, September 26, 2011. Alyna sang her first recognizable lyrics to a song when she was 15 months old. I thought is was remarkably cute and smart of her to sing "row row row bo" over and over again. But Kellyn, who is very verbal already, is only 13 months old and sings multiple lines of multiple songs. Buh rou rou rou" (while rolling her arms in a circle)- wheels on the bus go round and round. Bee bee bee" - horn goes beep beep beep. Row row row bo" - row row row your boat. Kellyn is also about to o...

Wednesday, July 24, 2013. Adventures in Cooking with 3 young children running around. After watching an episode of "The Pioneer Woman" from season 2, I was inspired to try her "Broccoli and Cheese with Ham Soup" recipe for lunch today because I had all the ingredients already if I substitute potatoes for the broccoli so that more people in our family would probably eat it. So I typed out the general directions for her in Notepad and printed it out. But no, Kellyn doesn't want her sister, she wants Mommy.
