We got our new business cards a couple of days ago and boy am I excited!!! The first ones we ordered were really bad! The paper was cheap feeling and the picture was blurry. Lesson learned: don’t always go with the cheapest option. (It worked out okay: we changed the design […]

I signed the kids up for swim lessons today. They don’t start until June 23, but that was the earliest anybody could get them in. Angelina seems to be a bit nervous about it, and is very concerned that she’ll have to go in the deep water. I reassured her that she […]

Sorry I haven’t posted in so long — it’s been pretty busy around here!
We traded in my Kia and bought a minivan, Clint is all but finished with two of the JA Videos, I’ve been doing some photo editing, helping Debbie with her website, helping another mom design a site, and looking for more work […]

We’ve been telling the kids, for quite some time now, that we want to take them somewhere for a weekend trip, to get away and probably to stay in a hotel.  Things being what they are, we’ve just been too busy to do it.  Well, Clint decided we’ve been talking about it long enough, and […]

Took Alexander to breakfast at the Allen Cafe this morning. He still remembers the last time we were there, a year ago, when Clint accidentally put syrup on his Mickey Mouse pancake, instead of powdered sugar. (The waitress that time was super nice, and she personally made him a new pancake, free of […]

Angelina is camping with her Dad and the Indian Princesses this weekend, so Alexander spent the night at Timothy’s last night. (He did that the very first time she went camping, so it’s become tradition now.) They went swimming today, and we picked him up around 6pm; he was exhausted, but said that […]

Clint was up until 3:45 this morning, working on something on the computer.
Turns out that was a good thing, because that’s when the the tornado sirens went off, and they weren’t loud enough to wake me! I was dreaming about a strange noise, and when Clint woke me up I was very confused: […]

Finally got a shower this morning, then put Christina down for her nap; she slept almost two hours, so she was pretty tired. Took her for a walk in the stroller when she woke up. We walked around the block, through our neighborhood, then stopped home to pick up a drink and our […]

Had another run-in with Effie this afternoon.
It started off fine: We got to the school to pick up the kids, and I let Christina walk around the classroom holding just my fingers; Alexander wanted to try, so I let him walk her around the room once; A few minutes later, the kids lined […]

A man knocked on our door and asked if we were interested in having our limbs trimmed. He offered a price that we couldn’t refuse, so we took him up on it. He did a nice job, so we decided to have him do the rest of the trees as well; he […]
