Today we drove to Llano, TX. This is part of the Bluebonnet Trail. I knew that it was past peak but I expected to see some. There were no bluebonnets this year. At all. Not even any wildflowers. We've had no rain. And, of course, we were ready with beautiful dresses. Oh, well. We did…

My parents moved in yesterday. All of my siblings along with Ben and my brother-in-law helped with the move. It was accomplished with minimal fuss and finished shortly before 3pm.

We went to Austin on Saturday after ballet. I needed to find shoes and we were celebrating my dad's 70th birthday. At the mall, we lost Pumpkin for about a minute. We only realized it for about 20 seconds, but those were the longest 20 seconds of my life. I think I shaved about…

It's age. I can't read a lot of things on the computer nowadays without having to increase the font size. Sigh. Seriously? When did that happen?

Part of it is my fault. I lingered too long in the warm comfy bed. Then we had rush out of the house. My children don't do rushed very well. Well, actually, I think it's all my fault. My children are acting like children. Bickering. Over every little thing. It's been this way since Ben…

What does it say about someone who has a nightmare that the flyer for Joann's Crafts was wrong? That she was an hour late and all the flannel was gone? No, she wasn't an hour late, but the nightmare seemed quite real.

I'm ripping seams on a party girl dress for Nutcracker. We, Ballet Moms (BMs for short), have been working on this dress for weeks. The party girl is tall and slim but the dress is for a younger girl. There's just not enough fabric to make it longer. So, after trying a few different ways,…
