Earth Day/Earth Month

Earth Day was a couple days ago...Did you do anything special? Do you do anything special in your household all the time that is good for the enviroment?

About a month ago I purchase "The Green Bag" from local grocery store.....about 5......and I am happy to say that I am doing pretty good at remembering to take them with me when I go shopping but admit that I forget when I am just running up for a couple things. I did put one in the car so that when I do make these unexpected trips that I have one already with me. The store also takes off 5 cents for each bag that you bring with you to use...so that is really nice. The morning of Earth Day I stopped at the store and picked up some Green Works cleaners with the intention of using them to clean that day after Blake went to school. Unfortunately Mike went to work before I remembered to get them out of the car. But I did use them yesterday and aside from what Mike said (waste of money, they dont' work) they worked just as well as any other cleaners I have used. I will be buying these from now on. :)

It's been a while

Haven't posted in a while...it's been a couple of busy weeks. My sister Rosanne and my nephew George where here last week...they just left Sunday. Nice visit..seeled to go by super fast this time. Didn't get much scrapping done while she was here either. When to the elementary school last week for dinner and some activities. Dinner was showing the kindergarteners how and where they will be having lunch. YES....DD will be going to kindergarten all day...I can barely handle the 4 hours she is gone now. :( Then we went to a few different classes to get some idea of what she will be doing next year. They had some fun things set up for the kids to do. And they recieved a free school T-shirt :) It has her graduating year one it.....2022....OMG

This morning they had a Kindergarten Round Up. Had to bring, birth cert, shot records and proof of resident. Fill out forms. Blake was taken to another room while Mike and I watched a video, talked to the school nurse and councelor. We thought it was going to be a 15 (if that) thing and we were there an hour...almost missed the bus to take her to pre-school.

Got some scrapping done this week. Hope to get some more done tomorrow.

Couple things....

Blake had her first sleep over last night.....she spent the night away from home....OMG....what a long day/night it was. We took her over there about noonish and she never called me or anything. I couldn't believe it. She has never had a friend friend before. Sure she has our friends kids, but they live a ways away and we only see them every couple months or so...this was a gil from her class at school. She got home today about 1. She had such a great time. She forgot her movie that she took andher pj's over at her friends, so we need to pick them up tomorrow. We have invited her friend for an over night on Friday and will be taking them to an egg hunt Satyrday. Blake is very excited. ;)

More good news....Mike got called back to work finally. Woo Hoo.....though it's been nice having him home all this time (for the most part) I am glad he got called back. He's happy too. I think he was starting to get a little stir crazy. It kind of stinks that the kids are on spring break this week and he got called back to work. But really can't complain as he's working. :D

Spring It On

Come and check out the crop going on this weekend. We Scraps puts on a great crop. Lot's of challenge, games and fun.
