December 25th, 2010bella tells santa about santana
December 20th, 2010
My favorite part of Bella’s visit with Santa this year:
santa: Did you write this list by yourself?
bella: Yes. I wrote it at home while watching a Santana dvd. Santana is a guitar player.
santa: Yes, I know that. You know what? He told me what he wants for Christmas, too.
thanksgiving surprise
December 11th, 2010My husband had this crazy idea to fly home on the “busiest travel day” and surprise our families for Thanksgiving. It was a fast trip, but we squeezed in an amazing amount of quality family time. We also debunked the myth that Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year. As for the media hype regarding security, there was not a body scanner nor pat down in sight.
Wednesday afternoon at the Lincoln Airport. You could hear a pin drop!

fun at roca berry farm
November 6th, 2010
One day during Fall Break, we headed down to Roca Berry Farm for an afternoon of fun with friends. Our first trip two years ago was so different. Aside from the fact that it was freezing and we didn’t stay very long, Bella was so little! Here are some pics of our latest trip with my Big Girl.

my little bookworm
October 22nd, 2010When I asked Bella if she minded if we stop at the library today, she asked if we could check out Fall Leaves Fall! They’ve been reading it in school.
I helped her look it up in the catalog and find it on the shelf. She borrowed my card and checked it out by herself at the self-checkout machine. Then she read it on the way home.
How long do you think before she asks for her own library card?

It was too cold and dreary to go apple picking today. Bella and I are making granola instead.
picnics in the park
September 14th, 2010
Today was our second picnic lunch this week. Now that the weather is cooling off, we’re trying to get as much outside time as possible. I hope the weather holds out for a few more. We’re loving Nebraska’s early Fall.
