Clam Dip with Bread Recipe

This is an EASY RECIPE I got from my mom and we both make it a lot at holidays or for company. I make fun shaped bread to go with it but you can find mini loaves in the store. It can be made the day before a party. I’m having a busy day so [...]

All in the family

“I made a kid poopy and a daddy poopy and they’re in the potty!” Ben said this tonight (9-18-07) but Ethan also used to make “families of poopy” all the time when he was a little younger. It’s very funny when they go through the same weird phases.

National Alpaca Farm Day

If you’re looking for something different and FREE to do with the kids this weekend, try visiting a local Alpaca farm. We’ve posted about visits to a farm near us in the past and how much fun the kids had. Well, this weekend is National Alpaca Farm Day and Alpaca farms around the [...]

DIY toolbox - Non contact voltage tester

One of the skills I’ve learned since buying our house is electrical work. Messing with your electrical can be very intimidating, but any good home improvement book will teach you the basics. The easiest changes are replacing light fixtures, switches, and outlets, but even adding additional lighting and outlets is pretty easy when you have [...]

Movie Review - The Love Bug

Has anyone else noticed that there are ZERO good kid movies in the theaters right now? Overall this has been a real bad summer for taking kids to the movies. We decided that if we can’t bring the kids to the movies, we will bring the movies to the kids and started a [...]

Cross your fingers…

I’m going to upgrade the site to Wordpress 2.3 during lunch today.  Looks like there will be some cool new features along with a slew of minor bug fixes.  Here’s the good stuff:

Native tagging support allows you to use tags in addition to categories on your posts, if you so choose. We’ve included importers for [...]

Farm Party with Animals & Tractor Cake

I am getting ready for Ethan’s 5th Birthday parties, yes parties! He is having a Dino Party this Sat and then a Monster Party the next Sat (what can I say the kid has a lot of friends so we divided it up between playgroup friends and school friends). Anyway since I’m in party mode [...]
