Breaking The Dress Code

If you are one the very luckiest of people

Your life will be overflowing with unicorns, of all sorts, but especially pink ones.

Last Day of School

It is not possible that a whole year of kindergarten has flown by. On the other hand I feel like 3rd grade took way too long.

I’m a Big Girl Now: The Softball Addition including Helmet Bling

After 4 years of being hauled all over town to ball parks and being made to sit and entertain herself while ignoring her sister’s countless softball games, Fuzzy Head finally had her day yesterday.

Clearly she wasn’t ignore everything ‘cause check out that batting stance! She hit off the pitch two of her three at bats. (meaning she only had to go to the tee once for those of you not in the softball know) Which is awesome for your first game ever! She even made one of the few none force outs by fielding the ball and tagging the runner while playing 2nd base. Is it too early to call her a natural? Ya think?

Couple of things she would have you know…

She has invented what will here-to-fore be known as Helmet Bling. Leave it to Fuzzy Head to find a way to make the game her own. Rhinestones and Glitter Letters became an immediate rage with the t-ball set … I’m wondering if we can get Hobby Lobby to sponsor the team! LOL

The Best Part of a Home Office

These are the kinds of people you get visiting your office.

The Sleeping Caterpillar (Sounds like a Yoga Studio or something)

I’m always amazed how willing FancyPants is to touch nature. She loves a good fat fuzzy caterpillar as much as a sparkly tiara. Well maybe not “as much” but it’s a close second.

Spring Planting

This weekend we started one of my favorite spring activities. The planting of the flowers!!!

We started out with my all time favorite… Purple Wave Petunias. These beauties will grow crazy all over the pot and true to their name be a lovely purple wave of flowers.

Then it was on to the front yard standard.. Inpatients. Last year we did all white but this year the girls decided they wanted multiple colors so we blended lots of pink and purple and red.

Big Sis was busy giving Little Sis a lessons in how to get them just right in the pots.

Which inevitably lead to her just taking over. But that’s okay it left the tree bed for Little Sis to take of on her own.

I have to say that gardening with the kids is as well… relaxing as I’d like it to be but it’s a different kind of fun.

Yes There Will Be No Bananas

FuzzyHead who has known nothing but 4 previous very warm winters has become quite disgusted with the results of our hard freeze two weeks ago. A week of continuous nights of teens and twenties has reeked havoc on our lush Florida landscaping. “Mama, I’m tired of all this brown,” she tells me.

Spring cannot come soon enough. Until then, we’ll be getting our bananas from the grocery store…

Rockin the Homeless Bag Lady Thing Today

‘Cause you know, Princess was so yesterday…LOL.

One More Thing To Blame on my Mother

Because if Mother had ever given me the little sister that I constantly begged for I’m sure my baby sister would have insisted on buying me a bouquet of my favorite color flowers when my parents drove to pick me up after a week away.
