Who is that masked man?

I’m not even sure what to say about what I found here…  What I can say is that the purchase on the airplane (the flight comfort pack or something to that tune, consisting of an eye mask, a blanket, and a neck pillow) was a good one!

Labor of love

I remember being young with curly hair… my mom lined us girls (3 of us) up on Saturday nights after our showers (because Saturday is a special day, it’s the day you get ready for Sunday…) and proceeded to roll us up with pink sponge curlers.  My hair was not exactly the thinnest in town [...]

A beautiful reminder

Kids

Do you remember that old song from Sesame Street that goes something like this, “One of these kids is doing his own thing…”  I think of that when I look at all these kids, including the big kid.  : )  My dad loves to get on the ground and play, pretend, imagine, chase, and just [...]

The troll

I bought this book about what to do with your kids in Washington.  I diligently read it with all the great intentions of the world.  But then, life seemed to get in the way.  Things like laundry, cooking, grocery shopping, mothering, cleaning, and doing things like keeping my family up to date through my blog [...]

More Geocaching

Walks, adventures, and Sunday afternoons have new meaning at the Heuer home!  We have new reason to get out and discover parts of Washington… there are buried treasures everywhere!  We found a beautiful 10 mile trail and along the way, we did a little geocaching.  If you weren’t a geocacher (is that a word?) then [...]

Some inner stuff

I went for an eye follow up today, all by myself and it was wonderful.  I arranged and then rearranged some arrangements so I could grace the doctors all by myself. Last appointment, my show with the children was just short of completely humiliating and totally embarrassing.  Actually, it wasn’t short of, it was!  The [...]

Geocaching

Ever heard of this thing?  About 3 days ago, Tim introduced our little family to geocaching.  It went a little something like this, “We find treasures… it is a worldwide game and the kids will love it.”  That is probably a good paraphrase BUT needless to say, I question the kids’ enthusiasm when I see [...]

Wicked

I have been staring at these while they await their hiding place.  It is a little eerie to me.  I will eventually wrap them, put them in a large box and then tuck them safely in my closet.  This empty room in the front of my house has provided a safe haven for them while [...]

Just another day

I took some pictures of the kids today while they were chillin’ on the sofa.  Let’s talk about chillin’ on the sofa because it is a double edged sword for me.  I feel so much peace and quiet when they have found a great movie to watch.  They actually get along : ) and they [...]
