Mother - Daughter Salon Day

Gisela B-H* | April 23, 2009

Last week, my daughter and I, had a pair of mother and daughter salon appointments.  It was great!  My daughter, for sometime now, has been wanting to get her hair cut.  So, after her stating for the upteenth time that she wants her hair cut short, I make us both salon appointments.  My salonist was [...]

Shed, Weather & Great-Grandmas

Gisela B-H* | April 5, 2009

We spent the weekend cleaning out the shed and getting rid a lot of things that we couldn’t get rid of in our initial clean due to sentimental reason.   This was the first stage to getting a new shed and tearing down our current red and white metal shed.   For safety and security reasons I [...]

Union Hill Cemetery Update

Of course, being the [...]

For example homeschooling. I can not tell you all the mouth drops we receive when I tell that I [...]

While I was talking to my sister on the phone, I notice that it was quiet in the house and that I should go check on my daughter in her bedroom where she was last seen coloring.  As I entered her room, she was sitting on the floor and leaning over.  I asked her if [...]

Hamburger Cookies

Gisela B-H* | October 21, 2008

Today, our lovely daughter decide that she wanted to make some cookies.  Translated, that means mommy makes the cookies while she makes a mess, only to have mommy clean-up.  Her Grandpa Bob’s lady friend, Elizabeth, gave our daughter a cookie cookbook for her birthday and it has turned into an almost weekly duty of our [...]
