January 8, 2012 - Day 8 - Greg Needs a Haircut

Greg has always worn his hair very short and can't stand it when it gets a little long. I could tell it was bugging him because he keeps running his hands through it. I had to tease him since it really isn't that long at all, he is just a clean cut boy. He teased it all out with his hands so I could take a picture of his "fro".

January 7, 2012 - Day 7 - My Plant

This is one of my most favorite plants I have ever purchased. I bought it last Spring and even after transplanting it, it not only thrives but is getting huge! Who would have thought the blossoms would start up again in January!

January 6, 2012 - Day 6 - New Bed Day!

Jared's new bed came today! He has been having problems sleeping, which is odd for a 14 year old boy, so we thought we would try a new bed. Hopefully this will do the trick. The one he really liked was $4,800. And yes, that was a twin size. I do have to admit, it was rediculously comfortable. He would never get out of bed if I had that one, unfortunately, he will have to make do with this one.

January 5, 2012 - Day 5 - The Neighbor's Tree

This tree has been the source of a constant battle for years! Long before we even lived here it was causing problems. Our neighbors let this thing grow and grow without so much as a trim. Part of it hangs out a good 20 feet over the fence and over the pool I might add. Their son came by and started trimming this week which got us a little bit excited, however, he only cut some off one side within their own yard, not any of the hangover. The interesting thing about that is that SOMEHOW, this big branch ended up in our yard. It certainly did not fall there. Hmmmm.

January 4, 2012 - Day 4 - Groan

Saw this license plate frame and had to take a picture even though it made me groan.

January 3, 2012 - Day 3 - Homework

I can't imagine this is comfortable, but this is the position I always find Jared in when he is doing homework or checking out Facebook. So much for the ergonomic chair and keyboard.

January 2, 2012 - Day 2 - Cell Project

Fifth grade is the year for cell projects. Kendall decided to do this even though it was just for extra credit. This one is made of styrofoam, play-doh, felt, pipe cleaners, pom poms and thread.
