Nice! I've had my eye on a cherry tomato all week that I knew would be ready today but the dog got to it before I did :(

Alright, that does it. I'm coming to see you so I can teach her to say Magaw!!!

Love this! I am trying to decide if I should DVR the game or just read about it the next morning. My nerves cannot handle it much more. All I have been thinking about this week is the big game.

I must say that I will have to go with the Cards. I know you might "kick me off" the blog ;) But when one of your childhood friends played on the women's basketball team, what can I say. Looking forward to watching some great basketball as long as in the end I can say "ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!" I am the other KU fan through and through!

Wow, nice book list. Did you know that Dr.Suess also wrote political cartoons? Dr. Suess goes to goes to war is a book of his cartoons.

Sadly, nothing as educational as you - I am reading The Hunger Games!

Heather (Kinkel Family) -
It's hard for me to know how to answer if it is appropriate...because I don't really know what you let Clayton read currently. Of course the subject matter is about death, concentration camps, survival, etc. John says he remembers reading a curse word or two as well as a scene where intercourse is insinuated (but would probably go ignored by an unassuming reader). I think I would let John Isaac read them at 10.

If you pick one up (I'm sure your library has them) just read a few pages and you can get a feel for it. Chances are once you read a few pages you'll be drawn in yourself. At least I was.

2012-03-20T17:53:20.588-07:00

Hi Julie - just finished "1,000 White Women" mostly fiction but loosely attached to historical events. A GREAT read.
Do you think that those last 2 comic books would be appropriate for Clayton (nearly 10) - he really enjoys history/facts and comic books... Would love for him to glean some real info. Let me know!

What a great day! Thanks for the pictures. So glad you had such nice weather for the trek through the creek. Memories :)

2012-03-02T10:43:56.435-08:00

too funny! my 5yo would be SO proud of himself if he thought of something like that. At least he sat long enough to finish the page...sort of! We're still working on dedicated work time.

2012-02-28T04:56:50.833-08:00

Also, I noticed that JI's hair appears to be darker. He has always been so very blonde, partly from the Arizona sun, I guess, but now his hair is darker in the photos. Does it look darker to you?

Thanks for the pictures of the two cutest kids in Arkansas!! Love the t-shirt and I'm glad he could use his Camelback. :) Also, what a creative bullwhip! Love the sound. Looks like it was really nice weather for the hike.

Very nice. I just couldn't keep up with Weekend Snapshots. Too much pressure.

What a nice trip:)

If it's any consolation--I have a son who would SO do that! Yes, we must laugh. :)

2012-02-20T06:36:49.382-08:00

What a great museum! I am sure JI loved it. I laughed when I read that he had to figure out how much money to bring for admission. I remember the Rwandan clerk's jaw dropping when he told her how much change to give him-in Rwandan currency! So American $ problems are easy for him, I'm sure. (I know, you just didn't want to brag, but hey, grandparents have bragging rights). Looks like he loved the blacksmith's shop.

I remember Turkle's book, Thy Friend, Obadiah, from when I was a kid. It was one of the books my mom actually bought. (gasp!)
