Have You Met This Grandma?
I realized today that it has been 6 days since I last did laundry. I've been boycotting. But since Chloe reminded me this morning that, "all my clothes are dirty", I figured I better get to that growing heap today.
In the midst of all the garments, I discovered the shirt that Cooper wore to church last Sunday (5 days ago). I had totally forgotten that he had gotten chocolate pudding all over it. He had made "dirt cups" in Sunday School class (still don't know how the dirt cups related to the lesson) and I had planned to clean it as soon as we got home. Uh, that didn't happen.
Grandma to the rescue! I can't believe how many stains this stuff actually removes. Usually, in the case of my rough-and-tumble guy, it's either blood or mud messing up his clothes. It also claims to remove oil, grease, paint, make-up, grass, clay, ink, baby formula, tar, spaghetti sauce, rust, pet stains and more.
Do yourself a favor and go get a bottle of this stuff today! You'll be glad you did!

Pics from Thanksgiving 09
I promised Coop a game of Battleship today. We had just gotten started on the game when one of his friends called him to go outside and play. Yep, I got ditched by a 7-year-old!
It's OK. Really. I had been wanting to finish a scrapbook page from our Thanksgiving weekend. So, here it is. Click on the image to make it larger.

Research Isn't What It Used To Be!
It's Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the kids have a holiday from school. So, since they are "sooooo boooorrrreeeed" today, I suggested that they work on their research assignments for piano today.
After 20 minutes of research, he had his homework completed! Whew! What's next for this Monday at home? Oh yeah, laundry.
Back in my day, this would have meant a trip to the library to use the encyclopedia - what a pain! My kids are lucky. They have Google and You Tube to help them out!
Looking up the history of Handel:

2010 Time Capsule
Our family, along with some dear friends, made a 2010 Time Capsule on New Year's Day, 2010. We each wrote down 3 things we plan to accomplish this year. We even sealed the lid with candle wax! We plan to open the capsule together on January 1, 2011.
We weren't supposed to tell each other what we wrote down, but I will now let you know that one of my goals for this year is to start BLOGGING. So, here I go!
