BBQ Chicken Pizza
One of the easiest,cheapest things to make is pizza. My girls LOVE to cook pizza. Every once in a while I can talk one of them in to trying a new pizza recipe to break us out of the rut of cheese, pepperoni, or Hawaiian. This BBQ Chicken Pizza was an instant hit. It fast […]
Teaching Kids to Cook Part I
Every child loves to help cook and bake. The magic of mixing ingredients together to produce yummy cookies and getting to spend time with mom or dad in the process of it all creates some fun experiences. It can also become overwhelming when there are too many helpers that create a bigger mess taking more […]
Next Wordfull Wednesday Topic for April 29
Last Friday I took the kids to the park to have a little “Poetry in the Park” for an hour. It was fun, relaxing, and enjoyable. I’ve never been drawn to poems much. Oh, I’ve read quite a few, studied some poets and their lives, etc. But poetry has never been a medium that “speaks” […]

I ♥ Faces Adult: Week 15 Self Portrait
Yikes! The theme this week is self-portrait with the stipulation that we must be holding the camera – no tripod use or placing the camera on something else. I headed to my favorite red barn backdrop and started shooting away. It was a lot of fun! The trouble with so many pictures is deciding which […]
I ♥ Faces Kids: Week 15 Self-Portrait

Come What May, and Love It FHE
Based on Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin’s October 2008 General Conference talk this family home evening lesson is geared for older children as there is more discussion and less “fun stuff.” For some reason the lessons are printing really big, cutting some of the images off. The best way to avoid this is to download the […]
Paul Revere’s Ride
“Listen my children and you shall hearOf the midnight ride of Paul Revere,On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five;Hardly a man is now aliveWho remembers that famous day and year.” Boy do I ever remember having to memorize that poem in Mrs. Humble’s 8th grade literature class! Thankfully we only had to memorize the first […]

Do Re Mi
I posted this a couple of days ago on our personal family blog but thought I’d share it here to. Saturday the girls had a Harry Potter marathon. It was their reward for helping to deep clean all week long during their Spring break. And they did it without complaint! So while I finished sewing […]
Wordfull Wednesday: Be Inspired
I sat down to write this post and drew a big blank. Not because there aren’t things that inspire me. I just couldn’t narrow it down. And then when I thought I had it narrowed down I realized it I was breaking my own instructions to “write about either a person or scene that has […]

I ♥ Faces: Week 14 Amateurs/ Spring or Easter
This picture comes from one of the funnest little photo shoots I’ve done in a while. Fudge is such a character. She can make some of the most expressive faces! It was hard to narrow down my choices to just one. You can see the rest in a mosaic here on this post. This week […]
