This is an experiment …

I’m trying a new picture service

 

Not Working

My pictures aren’t moving from Flickr and the pictures are my favorite part of the posts. So I haven’t been updating. Sorry. But until I can get it working again you can keep up with us from our pictures. If you haven’t found it yet I keep pictures at Flickr and here’s a link.

 

Navajo Tacos

We had Navajo Tacos for dinner Saturday night. They are Indian fry bread with taco fixings on top, really good and a little adventurous after a fun day skiing. Making the fry bread was more daunting in the reading about than the actual making of.

Finally, it seems that I can get to my pictures at Flickr again. We’re also finally getting some snow and cold weather!

Good Wednesday

I have several posts ready to go, but my pictures aren’t uploading. I’ll keep trying, we skied last weekend.
We’re having a nice week, today is cold – which we’re glad for. Last year was never warm, this year is mostly warm. The mud we walked on yesterday has turned to dust with the cold.
We spent Tuesday morning writing the big checks for Tucker Mac’s accident. We thought we were doing okay for money, he.

Lefty?

Since Tucker Mac has broken the same wrist twice, he has become a little ambidextrous.  Last year he wrote only with his left had and this year he’s using both.

Spacey Pancake Night

We got a package from Tennessee on Monday. It was a little late to start dinner and there were some tears. But last night we followed through on our many promises and had our pancake night.

Master Yoda was Wrenny’s favorite.

This was made easier with a “pancake pen,” it looks like a plastic ketchup bottle and I made batter a little thinner than usual. It was a yummy night.

Funny Pictures

Those weird pictures of paper on Flickr are some recipes I like to make. My sweet sister asked for recipes from friends and family (a long time ago, I’m just beginning to catch up); I thought I’d see if pictures of recipes show up. Of course, the recipes I use often are usually stained and sometimes even burned so they don’t show up very well. But I think I can read these okay.

This is a current favorite. Thai Pumpkin Soup. I make it with homemade bread if I’m thinking ahead (sadly not a habit I currently have). I got a few pumpkins from the garden this year and I’m still pulling them from the freezer.

Face Painting

We got out the facepaints around Wrenny’s birthday and this is what we came up with. Otter wanted a bat face, but it had to be red not black; and the moon had to be blue not cream. So there you go.

Snowman girl

Camo guy. I love what this picture does for his eyes. These were pictures I copied from the facepainting book.

Sledding and Skating

Last week Wrenny, Daddy and Tucker Mac got ice skates.  We spent an unseasonably warm Saturday and Sunday out on our pond/ice rink learning that Wrenny has pretty good balance.

 

 

We have almost a whole team.

 

What a sweet big brother.

Wrenny is 4!

After Wrenny went skiing with her class in the morning, she had a birthday celebration at her school with Boddi who also turned 4 this weekend.

 

Just before they went skiing Wrenny made her own cake at school.  After their school nap, there was a birthday play and we all sang happy birthday and ate her cake.

At home she wanted Pizza for dinner and a yummy cake.
