POSTED ON PRETTY GIRL DESIGNS . . .
i grew up out in the country. dead end road. on a river. in the woods. {and no air conditioning} i didn't love it. there were no other kids around and it was SO BORING! so i decided when i was a grown up i was going to live in town {and have air conditioning}!
my 10 year old doesn't love being in town and would give his right arm to live on a river in the woods! he makes the best of it though . . . here's his latest "i think i live in the country" project . . . a creek running along our property line . . . with bridges, tunnels, islands and boats.
this is the stuff he lives for. this is what gets him through a day at school . . . it's his happy place! next up; a treehouse using the only 6 trees in our yard!
Playing in the Rain
cleo LOVES playing in the rain. shortly after this day it was POURING out and she wanted to play in the rain again. . . so i let her! two seconds later she was back on the porch!

H-bomb is in the middle of a big school project. In the past, I have pissed and moaned about projects, but this one? This one is super cool and right up my alley!
It's called the "Immigration Simulation." In a nutshell, the kids are learning about
their ancestors. H-bomb is lucky enough to still have a set of great-grand parents that are alive and well! His great-grandma Dora's dad came to the United States from Norway when he was sixteen years old. His aunt and uncle sent a ticket for his sister to come, but she was young and in love and had no interest in leaving her boyfriend behind. So Christian got on a boat and headed this way!Part of the simulation is doing a family tree. H-bomb finished his this morning. It was his idea, and he only needed a little bit of my help. I loved how it turned out and I love
how proud of it he was! Check it out . . .
