sunday perfect.

Sparkly puzzelts in the morningtime.


"Wow. Sunshine! There's Sunshine in the livingroom." says the Mama.
"Yeah. That's because the Sun follows me wherever I go," says the Honeypot.
"It sure does."
She discovered that truth a couple of years ago...
"Look at this. See that? The Sun follows me everywhere."
And it's true, It does.
I'll have to remember that should I need an extra bit of Sunshine, I only need ask Madeleine.
"Hey Maddie. Bring on the Sun?"

New York City


Tangrams



Mancala


Big Brain Academy
I won!!
: )

"Just drop me off in Argentina..." he sings.
"Know where it is?" His mama asks with a skeptical, raised brow.
"Obviously!...." demonstrates he.

I had the thought today that we prob'ly shouldn't get too attached to the Mammoth Hunt map... that probably we should be familiar with globes, too.
(FYI - I think I paid like $26 or so for this game... as I'm linking, the price says $4.95. ??? Apparently, if you're interested in this game, now is the time to get it.
As I've mentioned, it's one of Trev's favorites. Great geography game.)
So our globe was (agreed upon and) brought into our game for an extra challenge...

Cool. That worked out pretty well-ly.

Some sort of strawberry milkshake.
The ingredients are chopped up RedVines (red licorice) and pepper.
And frozen rice milk.
She felt it was pretty promising.

Kittycats and their balls of string


Love

Outside, into the neighborhood.
In pursuit of fresh air and winter's walnuts.

aaaah... found them.
And other things.

To home we went (all agreed)
to find some magic.
Backyard magic.











More music.

Jingle Bells.


Oh, goodness.
It's been one of those days!
One of those
Thank You! days.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

sigh.
I love this life.

  1. Looks like a fabulous day!

    Thanks for the heads up on the great deal. Your review of that game was so good, I'd bookmarked it to buy someday. But for such a bargain, I got one today, and one for a gift, too. :-)

  8. I am SO tempted by that Mammoth Hunt game!

    My current obsession, however, is my desire to purchase a dry-erase globe. I greatly desire a dry-erase globe!
