The Elephant And The Butterfly: June 2010
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 27, 2010. Hey guys, this one's for you, too. My great-aunt was this amazing woman . She drove till the very end of her life, often 90 mph on the freeway, much to the thrilled terror of her passengers - and just plain terror of the drivers around her. When the lawyers started pestering her about selling off her many acres for development, she got so fed up she starting scaring them away by waving a shotgun at them. It worked, too. Why am I telling you all this? Because it's the best way I kno...

The Elephant And The Butterfly: December 2009
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 29, 2009. Leftovers . Part 1. So I am suppose to be creative here on this blog . and it obviously hasn't been happening. It's not at all that I haven't been thinking about being creative here, it's that the process of photography- transferring photos to computer- organizing digital files- uploading photos sometimes isn't so fascinating to me when I'm doing the more mundane tasks of life. Like . feeding my children. You know:). Cleverly Disguised Halloween Goody Bags. Artistic, isn't it?

The Elephant And The Butterfly: August 2010
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. Gotta new one for you. I learned this album technique in a class at at local scrapbook store. You make pleats to create the spines. It's so awesome and so easy! Remember all of the fans you made in elementary school, flipping the paper from one side to the other until there just wasn't any way you could make one more bend? Yup, exact same concept. Then you tuck all the little tags and such into the pleats, giving yourself an album with depth. Tuesday, August 17, 2010. Note: I ver...

The Elephant And The Butterfly: Dear World
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2014/05/dear-world.html
Sunday, May 18, 2014. It's been a long time, but I'm going to give this another shot. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I couldn't have envisioned the joy parenthood brings to me, raising my boy (the Elephant, smart and loving, larger than life and gorgeous) and girl (the Butterfly, soaring beyond the ordinary, beautiful and loving.) But it is. And I can't contain it. Pretty paper. true stories. {and scrapbooking classes with cupcakes.}. A Scrapbook Page with Lots of Layers and Vehicles.

South Florida Guy: October 2012
http://sflaguy.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Living Life Like a Tourist in My Own Part of the World. Friday, October 26, 2012. My New House is a Piece of Work. Have you been missing my posts? Since I have not been out and about lately, I'm going to bore you with my progress so far. Lets start of with the fact that I got an unbelievably fantastic price. Good thing as it needs a new roof, flooring, kitchen, appliances, AC, drywall repairs including and entire bedroom ceiling, some electrical, and plumbing. Did I miss something? This will be a huge ef...

The Elephant And The Butterfly: April 2010
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 22, 2010. I had to jump back in today for another post. So I was at Half-Price Books with my sister, and went to pay for my $1 clearance book. I see on the counter a sign: In celebration of Earth Day, with every $25 purchase, you get a free, reusable plastic bottle. Granted, it said it was biodegradable and made from recycled plastic . but . um . A PLASTIC bottle to celebrate Mother Earth? How about 10% off instead? I mean, SERIOUSLY? We'd be better off reusing the damn plastic bags!

The Elephant And The Butterfly: March 2010
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Determination's certainly what got her here, but my little Butterfly's determination . whew. I'm a pretty stubborn woman, and have learned the hard way how to manage my persistence. I'm probably about 35 percent successful. So I worry for my daughter, and while I of course try and will always try to help her manage, she's . well . probably going to do it her own way anyway. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I couldn't have envisioned the joy parenthood brings to me, raising my boy (t...

The Elephant And The Butterfly: January 2010
http://theelephantandthebutterfly.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 20, 2010. I love you Butterfly. I tucked my hand up tight for this photo. Curled my fingers tight against my palm. Still in shock, I somehow moved forward to take photos. Against my better beliefs about all of this. I just saw a TV show about a woman who had five babies, and of course they were preemies. And I watched rapt, waiting to relate. Because preemie families are always related. By terms and struggles and common jargon. I see my then-girl now, too . She looks like she is in ago...

Escaping Our Everyday: We Love Waterfalls
http://escapingoureveryday.blogspot.com/2011/06/we-love-waterfalls.html
The Mathers Travel Blog. Friday, June 17, 2011. One of our favorite things to see when hiking in the wilderness is waterfalls. Perhaps it’s because we live in south Florida where the only hills are interstate overpasses. We will hike all kinds of steep, rough trails to get to falling water, most times we aren’t disappointed. We could spend all day resting peacefully by the sound of rushing water. Here are some photos from our many trips. Marguerite Falls, Greenville, TN – Sept.2009.
