Sydney and I were in my bed, trying to hide from Will, 8. He got distracted by his DSi so we had a few minutes to ourselves. Very nonchalantly, Sydney picked her nose and wiped the booger on the pillow. She was laying on my side of the bed, of course. “Did you just pick [Read More]

Recently, Cheez-Its were on sale at the grocery store. I picked up a box and selected the Junior Scrabble kind for their educational value (you know, to make up for the Cheez-Its’ nutritional de-value!).

Highway to the Danger Zone?
We took the kids to the see the Blue Angels this weekend at Thunder Over Michigan. Frankly, they were more interested in their slushies than the Blue Angels!
