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 […]
Easter Mosaic With Fudge
Here’s Fudge with all her expressive faces. She was giggling so hard on part of these because the eggs were cold! © 2007-2013 Chocolate on my Cranium, LLC all rights reserved
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 […]
Why, Oh, WHY
Do I do this to myself? 18 yards of fabric 3 different dress patterns 40 buttonholes 40 buttons 2 spools of thread 1 dull pair of scissors because I sent all our good ones up with my brother-in-law to BYU-Idaho to get them sharpened for a buck a piece and a WHOLE WEEK”S WORTH OF […]

Savoring the moments this week…
Having the girls help me deep clean a different room in the house every day…….with NO COMPLAINTS! Reading all 7 Harry Potter books again because it’s spring break. RAIN! We never get enough rain here in Nevada. We opened the windows and smelled the wet dirt and sagebrush. There are very few things that smell […]
Next Wordfull Wednesday Topic for April 15
April 15. Tax day here in America. Not very inspiring if you ask me. April 15. The birthdate of Leonardo Da Vinci (1452) who created some inspiring works of art. and Corrie ten Boom (1892) who lived an inspiring life. April 15. The day back in 1802 when William Wordsworth and his sister, Dorothy, saw […]
Easter All Week FHE
This is another activity we do every Easter as a family. It helps us learn what happened every day of the last week of Jesus Christ’s life leading up to the crucifixion and resurrection. Each member of the family will create a simple chart as the week progresses. The pictures included with the lesson are […]
Just relaxin’
Taking the weekend off….maybe more. Our family is being spiritually fed watching General Conference this weekend. Our church, over 13 million members worldwide, gather to hear our Prophet, the Twelve Apostles, and other church leaders speak words of counsel and wisdom. It is broadcast over satellite tv, the internet, and radio. Here’s a sampling of […]
Coin Face on Ice
I couldn’t figure out what to name this post so I went with the obvious. Truffle wanted to try this experiment as part of our science lesson on ice and water. Fill a water bottle completely full with water. Place a quarter face down on top. Stand it carefully in the freezer so it doesn’t […]
Wordfull Wednesday: Humor
“Maaaaaaooooooom! So-and-so said a bad word!” How many times do you hear that around your house? I hear it several times a day. We try to teach our kids that there are certain words we just do not say and others that are questionable depending on how they are used. The family joke right now […]

Print them off to keep your kids busy during General Conference this weekend. Make sure to stop by her post here to tell her thank you! 2009 April Conference Packet […]

Homemade Seed Tapes
Is it spring yet where you live? It seems like spring here but we know that won’t last. Our little valley has an average frost date of June 15th – which means we can’t really plant our garden until June! We actually cheat a little because we use the Square Foot Gardening method. It’s easy […]
