http://waterintheriver.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 17, 2011. The first good news is this: Jason has a new job. This week is his third week in said job. We took a little mini-holiday to Williamsburg to transition ourselves right before he started and that was lovely. This is just Leif enjying one of his favorite pasttimes.watching ants. I actually haven't gained any weight yet in this pregnancy, only have lost, so that is nice, too :). That would mean I'd already be IN it) but we're still looking. We did find one we like, but we haven't m...

CRACKER ROSE COTTAGE: December 2008
http://crackerrosecottage.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
The chronicle of years spent renovating a 1940s Florida Cracker home. Monday, December 29, 2008. A purple-flowering bromeliad specimen:. One of the many iguanas that roam Miami, this fellow is an unwelcome invasive species that is probably descended from a stowaway in a box of fruit from the Caribbean:. Here, Andrew is next to a silk floss tree (Chorisia speciosa). We managed not to feed or get eaten by any cocodrilos. And headed back to Glenn's for homemade eggplant parmigiana, my favorite Italian dish!

Water in the River: Toddler Activities
http://waterintheriver.blogspot.com/2014/02/toddler-activities.html
Friday, February 28, 2014. One of my Baby Prep tasks I wanted to accomplish was to set up a slew of toddler activities to keep the littles busy when I was busy nursing, etc. They had to be fresh to keep youngins interesting, so for a very long time i've been trolling Pinterest (💜! They also had to be easy-ish to assemble and clean up. I know me, and lots of hands on prep isn't going to happen at this juncture, so simplicity was key. The Rubberband Block makes me a little nervous with rubberbands snappin...

Sunday, February 28, 2010. I kind of volunteered Scott last year to make pasta for Avery's class. He and Avery enjoying doing that together and I knew the class would enjoy it as well. It just didn't happen last year - we got busy and never mentioned it again. The month of February Avery's class was studying the continent of Europe and Ms. Christina asked if Scott would be able to make pasta this month. Scott cuts the cheese. :-) He took all fresh ingredients, even fresh eggs from our chickens! The birth...

Saturday, August 14, 2010. Another lake trip with friends. Beautiful clouds at the end of the day. Lauren, Avery and Rebecca tubing. Avery enjoyed this tubing trip. Damien, Michelle and Youssouf. Damien. He's here from France visiting Jay, Michelle and all the ladies.:-). We joined a pool this summer. Avery's been taking swim lessons. She is getting better and definately more comfortable in the water. We plan to continue to take lessons until it gets cold. Avery by the pond. Mr Mantis in the garden.

Friday, July 9, 2010. We were invited to visit our good friends and their 3 children down in South Florida for the 4th. The trip down went pretty quickly. When we got there Avery was shy for about 30 seconds and then I heard her best "ice breaker" comment to date; "Hey, look at my boo-boo". From that moment on, they were inseparable. There was a festival going on downtown, so we packed up and headed down to check it out. Head to the awning in front of the pub, of course! It's interesting hearing the resp...

Wednesday, June 30, 2010. June - SC Beach Trip. Bobby and Scott on the water. The girlies - Avery, Reid and Davis. Any guesses who this might be? Here's a shot of the sun rising. The girls had a blast on the beach. Avery kept running in and out of the water with the tube. The girls really wanted to go to to the Pavillion down the street, so one afternoon we took them down to do one "ride". Davis did lots of flips. Walking back to the house from the truck with their treats. Sometime in the near future.

Tuesday, December 1, 2009. Gator / FSU Gameday. We had planned to watch the game at home, but wanted to get into the rivalry mood by walking up to campus to partake in some pre-game festivities. We walked around campus and had lunch before heading over to the Gator Walk Saturday. Now do the same thing to BAMA, please! Heading to Steamers for lunch (it's a Scott thing). Avery HAD to have eye blacks. She loved them. Avery wearing James' Gator hat looking for Tebow while being held by Youssouf.
