Collage Friday

Last weekend, Mother's Day weekend, we went camping in our Travel Trailer...All was good, for the most part.  Our BFF's who normally meet up with us camping had to cancel at the last minute as one of their children was too sick to be away from home 8(   This also resulted in our children being sad 8( and "bored"...lol   It did rain most of the day on Saturday but we made the best of it...walking in the rain never melted anyone I know 8)  

 Eric took this entire week off and we have been busy beavers with yard work, landscaping, painting projects and more...we decided at the last minute to take the entire week of school off (HUZZAH) but will be getting back into the swing of things on Monday (booo)....Anyway, here are a few pics from our weekend...


Wont you join me over at Homegrown Learners to see what others are up too?   Enjoy the weekend!

How fun Melissa! I actually thought of you this week and hoped you were having a GREAT time! Love the gummy worms and dirt. Keilee made that in one of her Co-op classes this week. I would love to have a cute little camper for Kei and I. :)

A week like yours sound great... sometimes we just need to STOP and get some things done around our home and just live LIFE without any school.

It's a rainy day here - Anna had a friend spend the night and they are still sleeping. They boys are watching baseball and I'm getting ready to make a big breakfast. We are very blessed, my friend.

I am thankful for you -- praying you have a great weekend!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor...
