Thank God for Seasons

Spring is gorgeous. It seems to bring out the smiles more and this is why:

Rainbows - if you look closely you see 2 lines of blue and purple in the first rainbow
 Green Grass to Tumble In

 Sprinklers to Run In
 Sunshine
 And Friends to Come Out and Play.

Ways To Play

Here's what happens when bags do not get fully unpacked.
You lose things.
I decided to actually LOOK for the picture-downloader-device, and I found it.
In a bag we took to Kentucky 2 months ago.

So here are some of the ways the girls have played since then.


 Juliana decided to serve soap for the tea party.
 If you look closely, in order from left to right is ConLai, Mommy, Juliana and Daddy.
 The oven mitts are used as crab claws (Juliana's original idea).
 Pull all the drawers out in the kitchen and you have a house.

How to Find Cobwebs

Option #1

Put oil in a pan, place pan on stove and turn burner on. Let the oil get so hot that it bursts into flames when you move it off the burner. Freak out.

Race for the phone. Freak out.

Call husband. No answer. Freak out.

Frantically redial. Husband answers. Freak out. He calmly says, "Go get the extinguisher."

Thank God that the previous owners left fire extinguishers. Thank God again He reminded you where it is (in the back of the cupboard, behind some pans). Thank God it works despite the idiot operator.

Douse the fire. Open all the windows and clear the black smoke. Once smoke is cleared, look up and you should find cobwebs outlined in black.

Moral of the story: Never leave the wife at home by herself.










I'm currently seeking a safer option #2 for finding cobwebs, any suggestions?
