Friday Photo Flashback

Last week, I posted a picture of me in my grandma's backyard playing catch with my dad.  The more I thought about my grandma's backyard, I was reminded of her back patio. I distinctly remember there being a picnic table out there. I know my brother and I would eat outside with my grandma on … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Tune Tuesday – Roy Rogers

Today we feature Leonard Franklin Sly's music on Tune Tuesday. Who, you ask? Well, perhaps you remember him as "The King of the Cowboys," Roy Rogers. He was born on this day in 1911. He was one of the founders of the country western group, The Sons of the Pioneers. He would go on to … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – Roy Rogers →

Don’t Fence Me In

Ok, the picture is misleading. This post has nothing to do with the Roy Rogers movie. I should also say that it has nothing to do with the hit song by Bing Crosby. It's just a fitting title for the backyard project. As I mentioned in a previous blog, my father-in-law and I needed to … Continue reading Don’t Fence Me In →

Square Dancing … in Gym Class?

Sandra Boynton writes some of the best children's books. They are perfect reads for Ella right now. They have great pictures, fun verses, and many of them are actually songs. I would say that they are just as fun for us to read as they are for Ella to listen to! This week, Sam was … Continue reading Square Dancing … in Gym Class? →
