Dandy Lande Ditties: November 2013
http://lande-family.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
The blatherings of one woman. Wednesday, November 20, 2013. The festival doth await us! Prithee, listen well for just a few more sentences, because I've most quickly used up all the speakings I have of Medieval times and am soon to get to the main - which is the pictures, of course. I thank thee most graciously for thy patience. Very well, ere thou dost feel inclined to hit the "back" button. As we watched our first show: a juggling comedy act, also known as the let-us-do-a-few-cool-tricks-and-then-shame...

Dandy Lande Ditties: August 2014
http://lande-family.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
The blatherings of one woman. Tuesday, August 26, 2014. First Day of School, 2014-2015. Oh boy. Look at my two babies. all grown up and on their way to new and exciting things. I would have been more woeful about this event - the first day of a new school year, my kids growing up so quickly, etc. - except that my kids made it so, well, silly. How can I languish when these little Energizer bunnies are constantly full of it? I'm so thankful for a sweet, smart, friendly, quiet, responsible child who can tea...

Dandy Lande Ditties: Fall Scout Camps
http://lande-family.blogspot.com/2014/11/fall-scout-camps.html
The blatherings of one woman. Monday, November 3, 2014. C is a Webelos now. And Webelos must camp more in preparation to camp on their own in Boy Scouts. As in camping without their families. Without their parents. Without their mothers. Without me! Practicing for the campfire skit. Combing the beach for collectibles. We successfully avoided alligators, but not the mud. M's favorite find on the beach. a long, skinny tree branch. To each her own. Beauty is everywhere if you choose to see it. Having learne...

Dandy Lande Ditties: Rollerskating...in the New Old Fashioned Way
http://lande-family.blogspot.com/2014/11/rollerskatingin-new-old-fashioned-way.html
The blatherings of one woman. Saturday, November 8, 2014. Rollerskating.in the New Old Fashioned Way. Ooh-ooh-ooh. my days of innocence are all but gone. Who am I kidding? Those days are long gone. With my own skating days far behind me, along with my son's, I enjoyed M's skating sessions, each one, and took a myriad of pictures - starting with that first session:. Receiving basic instructions - like how to stand up. Scootching along ever so cautiously. Thank goodness for all that padding, except that.

The blatherings of one woman. Monday, June 10, 2013. Another School Year Done, 2012-2013. I'm sorta freakin' out. I know my kids are growing up - that's what they do. But as long as I had one in preschool they were still small to me. And then kindergarten, really, isn't even a real grade, is it? Or so I've told myself. But now my baby has finished kindergarten and I have a boy who's about to be in 3rd grade. So you can see why freaking out is on the menu. Could their fake smiles be any more alike? M's cl...

http://lande-family.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
The blatherings of one woman. Friday, April 25, 2014. Easter. the exact opposite of Passover. Where everything you eat is carb-based or sugar-filled. and is leavened twice over. And there is lots of it, brought to you by.the Big Bunny. Let the hunt begin! So did you see in the pictures that we had some special visitors? What characters I have.full of fun and silliness. Never a dull moment. Never. Especially after lots of sugar and fun. Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Ready to start services. Dipping, plaguing...

The blatherings of one woman. Monday, September 30, 2013. First Field Trip of the School Year. Where was this exciting field trip? The Houston Museum of Fine Arts. In simpler terms: an art museum. I have a great appreciation for the finer things in life, but not so much when it comes to art. So it wasn't necessarily exciting, but at least the kids got to ride a school bus. Soooo, looks like it'll be awhile before a family visit to the art museum. Coming off the bus. Enthralled and engrossed. I think.

The Barnes Family: Smells like what?
http://brookebarnes.blogspot.com/2011/04/smells-like-what.html
Monday, April 18, 2011. Funny story from Parker last week: He came in from playing in the backyard, stopped, sniffed, and said, "It smells like Star Wars in here". Apparently Star Wars has a scent. Turns out he was trying to say "starbursts" (I had lit a "fresh picked cherries" candle while he was outside playing.) I guess his sense of smell isn't quite highly developed enough to smell movies. (:. I wonder what Star Wars WOULD smell like if it had a smell? O) Cute Parker, we love him so!

The Barnes Family: Easter 2011
http://brookebarnes.blogspot.com/2011/04/easter-2011.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. The kids had fun hunting for eggs at my dad's house. This was the best I could do for Easter pictures before church on Sunday. Parker won this huge chocolate bunny from his bus driver. He was pretty excited. (:. I decided its impossible to get a good picture of kids in their Easter clothes. I mustve taken 40 and maybe got one semi decent one ; ) Your kids are cutie pies, glad you had a fun Easter! April 26, 2011 at 7:44 AM. April 26, 2011 at 1:08 PM. Clint, Jen and Jax Meeks.
