I’m trying to figure out how to make our arid suburban backyard a fun place for my kids without having to spend hundred of dollars on a jungle gym.  I think we’ll start with a little mud pie kitchen (but ours will have to use sand).

I love these modular dollhouses.  I sure wish handmade toys weren’t so expensive.  My little boys love doll house play.  The cardboard house their big brother made them is doing the job at the moment.

I am so inspired by this scripture journal.  I think I need to take my study up a notch or two.  Could I be consistent enough to fill a journal?

We love to listen to audio-books at our house.  This free resource is chalk full of classics.  Hooray for free!

Anyone surprised that we came home from the National Western Stock Show wanting yaks?

We get to go to a special taped performance of Blue Man Group!  The kids are very, very excited.

I have an idea for our Christmas wrapping paper– paper bags and celery stamps!
