A Trip to Woodside

Woodside Creamery in Hockessin is an amazing place to eat homemade ice cream.  They have some really good flavors and some not so common flavors, such as bacon!  I asked for a sample, and, of course, it was nasty.  Just imagine smooth, creamy goodness ruined by pieces of salty, fatty bacon hidden inside.  Sounds appetizing, right?

Lazy Days in Alabama (and Florida), Part 2

As you may know, the family traveled to Alabama a few weeks back (On Vacation!).  Here is another installment of photos.  Enjoy!

The girls (especially Poppy) were enthralled with the dog beds at Papa and Nonna's.  They served as wonderful pillows...

...and play mats.

"Ah, plastic containers, you're so good to us!"--Olive

"Does this hat make me look like I have a pig nose?"--Poppy

Here's my little southern belle Poppy playing in the sprinkler next to the vegetable garden at Aunt Nicki and Uncle Jason's house.

Daisy was banished after a humping incident.  Olive's waiting patiently for her to re-enter.  I couldn't get Daisy's eyes to look normal, so she looks creepy.

At the beach, we set up a mattress on the floor for the kids.  They started out like this...

...and ended up like this...

...and this.

Uh-Oh...

It's not a good sign when you leave the room for 10 seconds and return to find this...

"Look at me!"--Olive

"Are you gonna make me move?"--Poppy

"This is fun!"-Olive


And here's how they did it...

Videos from Alabama


At Aunt Nicki and Uncle Jason's house, Olive practiced her backward throwing skills with a pacifier while Daisy the Dog watched.

You might be thinking, "ANOTHER peek-a-boo video?"  For me, they never get old.  Besides, it's my blog, and I can do what I want.
