Beansandtaters: June 2013
http://beansandtaters.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 30, 2013. The scoop on spring. We've been busy and this blog has been neglected. Between fun and work and school and trips and activities, there's been too much going on to sit and document all of it. But I'll try. We do movie night on slow Fridays. This time the dollies joined us. Santa Barbara - Spring Break. At Kid's World Park in downtown Santa Barbara. She only looks like she's wrestling this dolphin statue - but she won. Gaviota State Beach - Spring Break. View from the pier. Claire lo...

Saturday, January 12, 2013. My kids say funny things - most kids do - and I write them on the calendar whenever I can. Sometimes I forget. This is the last two years worth - they're 9 and almost 6 right now. Be warned, they are my children, so eating and farting are favorite subjects. Audrey “Advice is something you don’t have to listen to if you don’t want to.”. Claire “I don’t wike dowympics.” (I don’t like the Olympics). Claire “I love you daddy. You know what else I love? Claire “Is it openable?

Beansandtaters: April 2013
http://beansandtaters.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 26, 2013. Peacocks in Palos Verdes. There are wild peacocks roaming the nearby hills. When Mark and I first moved here we went for a drive and then a walk that stopped abruptly when we saw a peacock, with feathers unfurled, tap dancing on somebody's driveway. The homeowner happened to step outside, and I asked "Is that your peacock? He looked at me like I was quite stupid and explained that the peacocks just go where they want. Claire celebrated her birthday with her classmates. We had ...

Tuesday, December 8, 2009. I had forgotten that i made this advent calendar last year and was so excited to find it with all the decorations. the kids love peeking inside each box to see if maybe, maybe their mother trusts them enough to fill all 25 boxes on day 1. Ha! Fools, i tell you! Posted by Lightning McQueens. Where have we been? Thankful things the kids came up with this year:. School, church, mom and dad, friends, food (the usual). He was also thankful for his zoobs. Megan and Mal spent Thanksgi...

lIGHTNING mCqUEENS: a pirate says "arrrrrh"
http://lightningmcqueens.blogspot.com/2010/02/pirate-says-arrrrrh.html
Monday, February 22, 2010. A pirate says "arrrrrh". Using his hand to create an eye patch). The robin is supposed to be a parrot- i had limited resourses;). For playgroup a couple weeks ago, the boys had to dress up like pirates and eli really got into character. we found some old pants at DI and a red and white striped shirt to cut apart for his costume. he drew the line at the mustache and wiskers, i wanted to add chest hair. a little too much for a three year old, i guess.
