Saving pennies for a rainy day.









Our old neighbor got Maddie this ceramic pig when she was born. I have decided Maddie will learn the value of the dollar...at an early age! I grew up very lower middle class so there were chores with no allowance, hand-me-downs (from older BROTHERS) and simple meals. Hoping better for her, but still understanding the importance of appreciating hard work and it's pay-offs as well as saving is something we want her to appreciate. For now, it's a fun lesson in dexterity trying to put spare change in the frustrating little slot! And our little "spirited" child definitely gets frustrated!

Mother's Day 2011

What sounds like a great day to me? The beach and my family. Being spoiled a little (which I was). Pretty much perfection!!

GOATS!!!!!!!!!!



So there is this little...farm?... in town kind of by a major road which is weird...anyway, there are a buncha goats just wandering around in a fenced area. Rumor has it kids love it! You can buy feed and watch them go crazy but since it was Sunday and they were closed, we improvised with grass. I have a feeling it had a similar affect....
