Month: June 2012

  • First day of school

    Homeschooling has begun. Grace started preschool today! We got all set up today to begin this journey of learning.

  • Tonight's Dinner

    Hubby helped me in the kitchen tonight. That's always loads of fun for me since cooking is one of my favorite past times. We turned on our indoor grill and made some veggie shish kabobs. Hmm...I was thinking of posting more pictures of our dinners...since so many of our friends always ask us what we vegetarians eat (I do cook salmon once a week). Would that interest any of my readers out there?

  • Transit of Venus

    Whoa did any of you see this great celestial event today? After dinner tonight we high-tailed it to Griffith Observatory to be part of this amazing event. Lots of other people were there too and all very excited to see planet Venus position itself in front of the sun. This won't ever happen again till the year 2117! That's 105 more years! So cool my kids got to be there.

    Behind me is a screen displaying what is seen through the telescope.

  • Celebrity Sighting

    Saw Rob Schneider and his beautiful wife at the Americana Mall today! He was on the playground and next to the slide when Grace went down. He cheered her on and said, "Yea, good job!" Didn't get a picture with them cause hubby thought it'd be embarrassing!

  • Mama

    This Mama got dressed up and did her hair and makeup today for church! Mental note: Gotta take much better care of myself!
