Now I Lay Me...

I know there's nothing to watch, but this is Grace saying her prayers with me last night.

Hunger Games

So, I jumped on the Hunger Games train! I had purchased the audiobook for my ipod months ago because a book club that I was in was going to read it next. The book club fizzled out, and I listened to all of the first two chapters, put it down, and thought this really isn't my kind of book. Once the movie came out and the Hunger Games craze began, I decided their must be something good about it so I tried once more. I listened to the first book within a week and a half and the second book within 5 days. Now on to book 3!

You can view the trailer to the movie here.

My the odds be ever in your favor.

Hip Hop Bunny

The Hip Hop Bunny comes this weekend! (Ever since watching Dora's Easter Adventure, that's what Grace calls the Easter Bunny.) The Easter Bunny sure has been good to Grace the past two years. I wonder what he'll bring this year! I remember always getting a bathing suit in my easter basket, seems like the easter bunny has carried on that tradition with Grace too.

Snack time

How do you do snack time at your house?

Scott bought Grace this silicone Mickey Mouse cupcake/muffin pan back from his trip to Orlando. I haven't used it to bake yet but I have used it quite a few times as a snack tray for Grace.

She usually gets something different in each of the compartments but there are times she'll get two compartments of the same.

Snack might include:
Carrots
Goldfish
Cashews (her favorite)
Cheese
Grapes
Cheerios
Tomatoes
Cheese balls
Onion slices (another of her favorites)
Cucumber
Pretzels

What's some of your little ones favorite snacks?

Guess we were having an orange theme this particular day? :)

Instagram

Instagram is a fun App that we have on our Ipad. Here are a few photos that I've taken with it:

Grace in Time Out. :(

One of my favorite meals. Smoked Picnic, Cabbage, and Boiled Taters! :)

Hauling a trailer that was longer than the Suburban. ;)

The view from my office desk.

Scott was asleep and Grace was watching TV.

One blustry day on the Albemarle Sound!

Grace working too!

Supper time in the Living Room.

In March I tried to complete a Photo-A-Day based on a list that another lady puts out. I haven't been too good about it but I've done a few. This one below was for the day titled: "Bedside"

Another March Photo-A-Day: "Fruit"

This warm weather sure has been good for Ice Cream!
