How to Jump Start a Car
Today we went to the beach. When we were getting out of the car Laelia climbed into the front seat and played for a while. We only stayed on the beach for about 40 minutes, but when we got into the car it wouldn’t start. Turns out the headlights were on the whole time. Fortunately, […]
David and Goliath
Today was just a fun day from start to finish. But one of the highlights for me as well as for my Sunday School kiddos was the activity we did to help us learn about David and Goliath.
Mushrooms
So last week, I showed you our terrarium and the adventure we had building it. Willow was so excited to find mushrooms for it that day, but we had no luck! Which is just so weird because there is rarely a day that goes by that I don’t see a couple mushrooms in our yard. […]
Whimsical Whimsies Makeover!
Today marks a very fun day for Whimsical Whimsies. Our site is getting a complete makeover! We made the decision to make the move to a new hosting site because more opportunities are available through this new site (www.wordpress.com), as opposed to the web site we were previously using. All of this to say, we […]
Our Homemade Terrarium
I can’t say that every day is filled with adventure at our house. But today, we had a great adventure for our lesson. I thought it would be a lot of fun and a great learning experience to make a terrarium.
Flowers in the Sand
When we were in the planning stages of our move to Florida, I used to sit at my window and watch the snowflakes falling on a couple feet of their already fallen buddies and wish for the morning when I could wake up and think, This feels like a beach morning! In my fantasy I’d grab our things […]
The rains came down and the floods came up.
Rainy season is beginning here. It’s a part of Florida that I enjoy. I love how things just slow way down during a nice, heavy rain. I love that my plants get watered the good old fashioned way. I love the sound of the drops pounding down. I love the smell […]
Beach Babes
I have found myself longing for the outdoors more and more these days and have been taking the girls outside as much as possible. Today was the perfect day. The temperature was 76 degrees. A light breeze was tickling our skin. The bright blue sky was feathered with beautiful cirrus clouds and on the horizon […]
2011 {A Fabulous Year in Review}
There are a few hours left of this year. And what a year it’s been! I’m so grateful to be able to share my family and the fun things we enjoy doing with everyone. Thank you so much for reading our stories! I have received so much joy from my children. I have watched them […]
Smile!
This past week I have had lots of requests for Christmas portrait appointments for my photography business. At the same time, we have done our own family pictures, and I thought I’d share them with you here.
