The Art of Finding, and Speaking of Art...

Today I vacuumed almost the entire bottom floor of the house.  The Dyson is my friend.  I also folded and put away three loads of laundry.  Did you know that there is a couch in our schoolroom?  I found it in there after I put all those clothes away!

SPEAKING OF FOUND!  While vacuuming I discovered Michaela's softball glove under another couch; that's good-it's just in time for the entire softball season to be over.

ALSO FOUND!  Somewhat related...I was at the pool on Saturday and we knew several people there.  One woman we know from church was drinking water out of a reusable bottle that reminded me of Christian's bottle we lost last fall on the YMCA soccer field.  When I finally made it over to her to talk I said,"We used to have a bottle like that.  We lost it during soccer."  She smiled and held it out and said,"Here it is."  Her son found it on the field (which now that I think about it makes perfect sense because their team practiced after Michaela's and that's where we lost the bottle), and there was no way to know whose it was (we're brilliant like that and don't put our name on things that we don't want to lose but usually do).  The kicker is that this was the first time she had used it.

Hello, bottle, I've missed you.

Speaking of Christian... He has a future in artistic photography.

Compare...

Here's another one:  Portrait of a Blue Ball.

We believe in exposing the kids to many different artistic media...you're familiar with art deco?  How about cheese deco?

Artists can be so, so touchy...

Talk about artistic ability...it runs in the family.   Here we have the art of eating dessert.  I am the Master.

They're Kashi. KASHI. It's nutritious.   (Also, Master of the Art of Delusion.  What can I say?  I'm well-rounded, versatile, adroit even.)

Yeah. Um. I think I'll just leave Eliana to her cheese and have my whine by itself. ;)

Do you just LOVE your Dyson? I do. I love it so much that I even use it which is more than I can say for my old vacuum.

You must post recipe for Kashi cookies. I want to be delusional too.

Mindee, I do love my Dyson. Once I turn it on I can't stop, I just keep vacuuming whatever is in front of me.
The recipe for the Kashi cookies is very easy...I went to the SuperTarget and picked them up off the shelf! They're just store bought this time. :) I'll have to say they are not THE MOST DELICIOUS cookies ever, but they do have chocolate chips in them. The oats make me feel like I'm actually doing something good for my body. Ha.
