modern jane: DIY: The Wall Stencil Reinvented

http://modernjanedesign.blogspot.com/2010/08/wall-stencil-reinvented.html

Wednesday, August 18, 2010. DIY: The Wall Stencil Reinvented. For this week's DIY project I'm featuring something that I haven't done myself, but have filed away for a winter stormy day.Wall stenciling! Before, when someone said wall stencil, I automatically thought of this:. I've seen many bathrooms with a similar motif. Well, they've come a long way since then. A couple of bloggers used the Morrish Stencil. Courtney of Living Out Loud. Check out his blog for a how-to. A gorgeous focal wall by Paula.

Life Under the Big Top: Snow Days

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010/12/snow-days.html

Friday, December 17, 2010. Well we are on day two out of school due to snow. And while the snow did derail many plans yesterday, new ones took their place. After some sledding at our house and some driveway clearing, we packed up and headed to Ann and Hans'. We generally over-ran the place for more sledding,. Game playing, pretzel making and overall snow day relaxing. It was no swim meet but then again, it was no swim meet! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, December 23, 2010. Merry Christmas, Eion Style. Eion arrived home from school with two wrapped Christmas gifts he made with his class. As he handed me the first one. E: It's a pinch pot! Me: We'll give it to Daddy. He'll be so surprised. E: No, it's for Maggie. I also made a green handprint. Me: I love handprints. E: It's for Morrigan. Me: Do I get anything for Christmas? E: Yes, you get hugs. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Biscuits are NEVER Boring.

Life Under the Big Top: A Birthday of Field Trips, Gingerbread and Love

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010/12/birthday-of-fields-trips-gingerbread.html

Saturday, December 11, 2010. A Birthday of Field Trips, Gingerbread and Love. I spent the morning with Eion on a field trip to the Science Museum and History Museum. He was a bit under the weather but having missed the last field trip, was not. Going to miss this one. The kids were great and I (really) had a good time. They had fun decorating (and eating) their houses. Maggie's was particularly stark. I think she ate almost all her toppings! Isn't it funny how what you want in a birthday changes? I can't...

Life Under the Big Top: September 2010

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

Tuesday, September 28, 2010. The Supper Club theme was Julia Child recipes and it was darn good. Molly's beef bourguignon and Ann's chocolate mousse were the stand outs but as per usual, everything was awesome. Friday afternoon at swim practice I found out there was a Saturday morning Marlin only meet - a biathlon of sorts in a team building effort. The kids (from 4-18) were divided into two teams and they ran 50 and 100 yard dashes and swam several events. Glad for that day of rest. Sweet Maggie turned ...

Life Under the Big Top: November 2010

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html

Monday, November 29, 2010. From the Morrigan files. I can't wait until Christmas comes and I get some new books. I have been reduced to reading things from my brother's bookcase.". Deepest sympathies my dear. Guess it's a good thing Santa went heavy on the literature this year. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Classic Moments From the Weekend. As her cousins walked in the door, Maggie asked Kelsey, "Now which one are you? Followed closely by Darby's Mario Kart advice for Tim, "Jump on the boat! Tim's parents a...

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Adventures in Kick Ass Parenting - Tuesday Edition. And then there's Maggie, who met her violin teacher today and came into possession of her new (rented) violin. Which she has been "playing" all afternoon. No, she hasn't had a lesson yet, she's just free styling. At least now it is after 5pm and happy hour is on. Monday, August 23, 2010. How completely psyched I am that I negotiated a pay for no birthday party deal with the girls? Even after a full 2 1/2 hours the kids were in ...

Life Under the Big Top: July 2010

http://lifeunderthebigtop.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

Saturday, July 31, 2010. Adventures in Kick Ass Parenting. So in preparation for the beach, I needed. To make some pineapple martinis. They are the recipe of a local steakhouse, Frankie Rowland's, and take about a week to brew up. Tim was working, it was raining and I decided we should get something done, namely, shop for liquor. Loaded up the crew and headed out to the ABC store where, upon entry, I promptly ran into a neighbor. Off to a good start. That Will Teach Me. I should be smarter. But weeks...
