The Return of Rainbow

Sasha’s had one of those Elf on the Shelf things the past few years (well, a Dollar Store knock-off) but this year, she’s figured out some secrets about Santa, the North Pole and surveillance state elves that watch your every move. Even though she’s figured out that the elf doesn’t move on its own (I […]

Saturday Snap – “Day Five of Election Night” Dance Party

QuaranTrim? Cutvid-19? Haired Immunity?

I’ve been joking about it since about week two of quarantine but as we head into the third month of quarantine, the family decided it was time for me to have a haircut and beard trim. They also decided they should all help. This is the result… (and I wish I could blame the scratch […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Making A Mess (September 2009)

Hard to believe this toddler will be a teenager next week. (Still as messy though!) 😉
