to do list crazy

I have begun my mission organization that i tend to go through every year, only this year I have taken it a little further. I have posted in each room of the house a to do list. I also have a "room chores list" put in each room. I am doing this to remind me of when I need to accomplish something and as I go in a room, I will see this list and be able to mark something off of the list. I also was able to mark off of a to do list I haven't even created yet for the office! Our office is part of our bedroom and I have this thing I wanted to put on that list but haven't created it. I found a church that offers the Dave Ramsey program. I really want to take it, so I had to find a church in the area that offers it and now I have. I am now going to start the office list and a budgeting to do list. Not to mention a child rearing in progress list to try and change some of the behaviors of our children and us as well. Lists like crazy in this house.

On to other things, Gretchen and Angeleena have lots more pics of the party for me as well as a video of the Pinata ceremony as I am calling it! Can't wait to have that. When I get all of those pics, Kenzie and I are going to make a slide show of her birthday and burn it to cd's for everyone to enjoy as well as add it to here so you can all see in motion the party. In fact, maybe I will start working on creating it after I get the kids their baths and put them down for the night. Kenzie has about 10 more minutes outside before bath time and then when the baths are done, we will do our book and go to bed.

Kenzie's words of the week this week are:
kite
bike
take
make
hive
dive

She is doing really well with them. I did a verbal spelling test to see what she could do. she missed 2 out of the 4 and today is only tuesday so i have complete faith in her to get all of them right by friday!

maddie just sat on the potty and tried going poopy for the first time! yay!

and that is enough rambeling for me!

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
