Snores and awards.

By -
Autumn received several awards today at school.

This is for the A honor roll.


Autumn and Ms Vaughn.

Autumn also received Best Girl Reader (chosen by her classmates), reading 15,327 AR Words Award, the nonfiction club award (read over 100 nonfiction AR books), the mileage club (logged 8.6 miles) award.

To my surprise, Autumn wanted to stay at school. When she got home,


We all snuggled and watched Psych.

We have been running nonstop the last few weeks. It was nice to have a lazy evening.

It rained tonight. Guess what?


Despite my incompetentence, the water beads up.

*Edited to add. Why does it look so gray here, but in the very next picture, how it actually looks??


Yay!!! I'm debating whether or not to add another coat. I noticed some spots looked like they could use some more repelling power.


My tomatoes. I ate one and they are fabulous!!!

I have been craving chocolate hardcore, so I decided to make brownies.


Before I get to that, I mustache you a question.


What do you think Millie drew here?

So back to the brownies. Millie was asking if she liked brownies, what do they taste like, etc. She tried some, but she informed me that she could eat snores.

Ensue hilarity.


43 days without you.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

Playing with fire.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
