Leap Day 2024

-

 I decided that it would be fun to have a special dinner to celebrate Leap Year.

I made

  • Frog Sandwiches - turkey and cheese with bacon tongues and grape and raisin eyes
  • Swamp Vines - curly french fries
  • Swamp Water - green Hawaiian Punch
  • Frogs in a Pond - chocolate cupcakes with frosting and gummy frogs
Our kids seemed to enjoy it and have fun!

Home School Lunch Ideas

For the first time our kids are taking a home lunch to school! I’m having such a hard time finding things to send with them. I don’t want them to have the same thing every day, that’s so boring and gets bland. But so far Zain has been fine with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Lydia and Tyler on the other hand want something more than sandwiches. So… I’m going to compile a list of main lunch ideas, some snacks, sides, treats, and drinks. That way I can remember everything and mix and match. We will have them pick one item from each list (2 from sides and Fruit/veggies). Please Note: Our children are picky eaters.

Spring Break 2026 - Day 1

  This year for spring break we took the kids to Astoria, Oregon to see where they filmed the movie, The Goonies. We thought it would be so fun, a new place to visit, and a nice getaway. We were going to leave Wednesday morning and drive all 13 hours, but we decided to leave Tuesday evening drive a few hours stay the night and then drive the rest of the way. This was really nice breaking up the travel time.  The only photos I got from Tuesday evening were of the sunset. It was so pretty. I wish I would have gotten more, but lately I have been really bad about photos.
