On one of our recent morning walks to the pond, I spotted an Armadillo carcass over the fence. So the boys and I went to study it from afar. Sammy wanted to check them out on the computer, so we found some great info and photos.
So it’s time for us to move to the next letter in his name; after about 4 weeks on the letter S. Am I really going to be able to pull off homeschooling???
Apples – we eat a lot of apples around here. Our favorite are the small organic apples we get in our produce pick-up from Lindale. My other favorite are braeburn and fuji. This morning I had one of my fav quick breakfasts – 2 scoops of cottage cheese with a bit of Stevia mixed in, 1/2 apple cut up, sprinkled with cinnamon. It was made perfect with a piece of buttered Spelt bread my friend Judy shared with me.
Alamo – I recently picked up a Texas Monthly Magazine and read about a romantic weekend getaway in San Antonio. I’ve always enjoyed this town and am praying to find a way to get at least Tony and I there for a few days alone. Oh, another A – word.
Alone – where I found myself most of Thursday. I had coffee and computer time at my fav Books and Coffee in Kilgore,

then to the movie to see Angels (another A word!) and Demons, then to McAlister’s for some soup and tea. Delightful.

Anne of Green Gables – this is truely one of my most favorite movies. Last night I was surfing for a recipe and ran across the Anne of Green Gables Cookbook. Just thinking about Anne give me a mental visual of the fields of green that surrounded her and helps me breathe.
After – After the baseball game last night, we were treated to Friday night fireworks – my favorite!

Attack – that’s what me and the kids are about to do to our vehicle. It is atrocious inside and out! So we’ll make it a fun clean-up project this morning by throwing some water and bubbles onto the scene.
Always – My prayer for my boys is that they will always love each other and be the best of friends.

Join us as we travel through the letter A! Hopefully more to follow.
