NO thanks... well ok...


 I have always referred to Norah as my "shrinking violet." She is the queen of not wanting to try something, then having to be pushed into doing (which I hate doing) and then she realizes that she actually loves it. Total predictable Norah behavior. When we were all camping this summer, she refused to ride the quad's. One by one, all the kids, adults and everyone in between went for rides in Utah's forrest. At first, she didn't bat an eye. Then, I caught a second glance. Every time there was an offer, she flatly refused. Finally, I did the "push into it" tactic. Guess what happened? Yes, she loved it. Too bad it was the day before we left.  



I can't leave Evan out. He, of course, loved riding the quad's and was happier the faster we went. The only part he didn't like was when our driver went through a mud hole. Which was funny because all he wanted to do besides ride was get dirty!

Never Go Potty...

...when mid-sentence on your homework.


It ended up saying, "potatoes and gravy."
