The Lion and the Lamb

 

I remember an art project I made in first grade that had picture of a lion and a lamb with cotton balls and the title, "March comes in like a Lion and goes out like a lamb." My teacher was a little worried about first graders screwing up the spelling with permanent marker so we came to her desk one by one to write the words with her careful directions and surveillance. I was extremely nervous when my time came to take the marker. When I was almost finished my confidence overcame me and I reversed the vowels in the word "goes", creating geos. AHHH! Mrs Hadad was very annoyed and made me fix it as best we could by making the o really thick so it almost covered the wrong e and squeezing an e before the s. The fact that I remember this scenario so well shows how traumatized I really was.

So while Izzie's towel is actually a kitty and not a lamb, pretending it's a lamb brings a whole lot more fun to my blog post of the day. :)

Aunt Al-guh

 


Although the weather was chilly in El Paso, we still got in some park time. Too bad I didn't get any good pics of the three little ones together. Still, this one of Ally and Marielle is pretty cute. Looks like it could make a great Facebook profile pic. (For Ally, not Marielle.) All in favor, comment "aye."

Hanging Out with Ju-ah

 

 


We had a fun little visit with Julie and her boyfriend Chris in Austin on our way to El Paso. Marielle warmed up to Julie quick calling her "my Ju-ah." Although it was just an afternoon, it was great to see our newest Texas relative! :)

This Blog is Nothin' to Crow About

 


Lately I've been having bloggers block. I think it's because I never feel like I have enough time to do a decent entry. So I am changin' my ways. I am going to do short and sweet posts and try to do them a little more often. After all we can't let our readership of 6 dwindle to 3!

Didn't Think I'd See it Here!

This post is mostly for the Harvey's who left Houston for Colorado cold, IT IS SNOWING IN HOUSTON!

(Sorry, I'm not feeling ambitious enough to post a picture.)
