Journal Prompt: Do you remember any of the classroom parties you had at school? Each Tuesday, I am going to be offering prompts or ideas. If you don't write in your journal regularly - I am going to encourage you to write just ONCE A WEEK and answer the question/idea that I give on Tuesdays. These ideas hopefully will spark a memory and you will be able to capture that in what you write/record so that it can be left for your children/grandchildren/family/friends. Give as much detail as you can when answering. Will you do this for me? Will you do this for your families? You can write it down in a journal, you can type it up on a computer or journaling software, you can take a recorder and talk, you can videotape your answers, you can even scrap a page with the journaling. It ... [Read More]

Life 365 | Week 50
Monday, December 6, 2010 We made it safely home from our vacation and the kids got to skip school again, but Dad had to go back to work. When it got dark, we drove over to the Spanish Fork Festival of Lights! It was a neat drive through lots of fun lights - the kids loved it! Tuesday, December 7, 2010 The kids purchased some gifts for each other at the school's Christmas shop and they were so excited to wrap them up for each other today. Wednesday, December 8, 2010 Our project today was some fun Christmas pins. They were a little harder than I thought they would be - just because the beads were so small, but the kids helped where they could! We are going to give them away with some of our friend treats. Thursday, December 9, 2010 We started our baking and ... [Read More]

Life 365 | Week 15
Monday, April 5, 2010 I was determined to get a lot done this week. It's Spring Break for the kids and so I decided that there was 2 major goals for the week. 1. Spend lots of time with the kids - with at least 1 special activity a day and 2. Get Spring Cleaning done! Today we cleaned the bedrooms - especially rearranging the kids bedroom. We created a "Terabithia" for them underneath JJ's bed. It's a little crawl space that they can go and play under now. For our special activity today, we had a picnic. Unfortunately it was raining really hard outside so we opted to have the picnic inside. Beth and I even dressed up in dresses! Tuesday, April 6, 2010 Today we cleaned the bathroom and hallway and for our special activity, we went to Storytime at the Library. It was so fun and ... [Read More]
