It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

I love summer, I live for it.  After the long grim winter we had this year, I honestly thought we may never make it to July.  But we did and here we are baskin’ in the glory of it all. Â

Monster Children

I gave birth to the bride of Frankenstein,
Â
a vampire,   

 and a mummy.
.  Â
My experience as a mother has been full of unexpectant surprises.

Keeping the holiday cards out a little longer.

We still have a ribbon swag of holiday cards on display in our house. These cards are from family, friends, and some friendly people who have families, many a few of whom we don’t know very well.

A Von Trap Christmas

Everyone has experienced a time when they have been given such a disappointing gift it would have been better to receive a lump of coal.
