Day 27: Band Concert

Wow, it has been about 2 weeks since I posted last. How can so much happen in such little time. It was like summer bit me by the toe and dragged me under… We have been so busy lately. My sister called me the other day and said she didn't want to bug me, . . . → Read More: Day 27: Band Concert

Day 26: Fairy Doors

Today we did it! We made the drive to Ann Arbor to view the fairy doors. My sister Amanda came to my house in the morning and rode with me.

Day 25: Fairy Presents

Today after Lorelei's nap I told her that we would visit the fairies the next day. (If you want to know more visit  the Urban Fairies of Ann Arbor website.) She was so excited about it.

Estate Sale Vintage Finds

So let me preface this by saying I am sure I spent to much money on things some would consider junk, but they felt like treasures to me. My friend Melissa said I should post these on my blog so everyone could see, so here goes.

Day 24: George Playground Miracle

This is no joke. This is our backyard, really it is.

Day 22: Painting Treasure Box

Today was supposed to be Story Time and Crafts day, but Lorelei wanted to paint these plastic diaper wipe  boxes that she uses for her treasures. She had fun painting two boxes.

Day 21: Camp Out

Sad to say this is the first time we have used our fire pit. Steve put it in the summer after we bought our house, but we never have any visitors stay so we can use it. It was the perfect opportunity to bust out the fire on the Camp Out day. Steve went . . . → Read More: Day 21: Camp Out

Day 20: Memorial Day Weekend

Day 20 is supposed to be to play tag, but we were traveling up to Pentwater to stay at Grandma Edith and Papa's cottage. The 3 hour car ride up there wasn't even to bad. It did include lots of singing, cups of snacks and one stop to go to the bathroom (Dad), which . . . → Read More: Day 20: Memorial Day Weekend

I haven't been able to write about our 50 days in awhile. So I will have to do an abbreviated version. So much has happened in the past couple weeks…
