Day 25 – A-Thing-A-Day: Creating costumes from the closet and helping Autumn find her meow! Um, the ears and choker are actually mine – I wouldn’t let her use my whip, that’s just wrong! Check out those bobby pin nails.

Day 21 -A-Thing-A-Day (Well, we made it to the aquarium.)

Day 20 – A-Thing-A-Day
This week is our mid-winter break from school. These are days that I wish that we could homeschool full time. I love exploring with Autumn. Playing games, drawing, making math out of our snack, organizing and lining up all the toy animals in the house. Often Autumn stays [...]
Just Like ‘Butta’
