Olive

I noticed that I never blogged about my bunny!

Meet Olive.

She is a lionhead bunny.

She was born January 27th and we got her on March 12th.

She is the cutest thing ever! She hops around our house and uses a litter box and everything.

Her hair is CRAZY long!

The picture above was taken the day we got her. She was tiny.

She is now about double that size and not nearly as black!

We named her Olive cause she was our little black Olive, now she is more of a little grey Olive.

Little White Lies

For a little over a month I've been working in the pre-school classroom.

The other day the teacher and I were using a hot glue gun to put pictures up on the wall (it is the only thing that will stick to the cement wall).

At lunchtime one of the boys said to me, "Miss Tacy, Jakeb has something in his pocket."

I asked Jakeb what he had in his pocket and he said, "A mini water-bottle. I brought it with me to have on the bus in case I get thirsty."

I asked him to take it out of his pocket and he pulled out a glue stick.

I held it and looked at him said said, "What did you say this was?"

He again told me it was a mini water-bottle he brought in case he got thirsty on the bus.

It made me think of what I tried to get away with when I was 4.

Happy Holiday!

I've always considered myself patriotic.

I love the USA!

So today I want to wish everyone a happy National Anthem Day!

My book of 2,001 things to do before I die tells me to memorize the second verse of the Star Spangled Banner.

For a good chunk of my life I thought the second verse was what is actually the fourth verse so memorizing the actual second verse wasn't that easy of a task.

Nevertheless I did it!

Woo-hoo!

The Little Things

Jessie and I got a coupon in the mail the other day for $3.00 off a large Casey's pizza.

Jessie pulled out the coupon to see when it expires and found out it expires February 31st.

Hmmmm

Ya Never Know

I love the Antiques Roadshow.

On Sunday I was watching a show on PBS and I saw a "Tomorrow on Antiques Roadshow" clip and I thought one of the people they showed getting an appraisal looked very familiar.

I tuned in last night to watch and I totally knew someone on there!

You don't have to watch the video, but it's here just in case you want to watch it.

Watch the full episode. See more Antiques Roadshow.

I had to go to physical therapy for my arm and the lady getting the appraisial (Joy) was my physical therapist. Well actually she isn't a physical therapist...she was more like the assistant who helped me do all my arm exercises and stuff.

During therapy we'd talk about the Antiques Roadshow and how much we love the Keno brothers!

It was just fun seeing someone I know on there!

...And it's still snowing!

Yay!

A Blizzard!

And it's still snowing!

We are all stuck at my parents for the night...well all but Nathan who, after unsuccessfully trying for an hour to dig his truck out of the snow, decided to walk home to check on his cats.

Hmmm....not the brightest considering the snow came halfway up Jessie and when I went out to take a picture of Jessie I couldn't see 1 foot in front of me due to the wind.

Fun!
I can't wait to build a snow fort tomorrow!

The Fugitive Moment

I just had a birthday and I can't believe how much I've already lived.

When I was younger (and I am still young...this isn't an 'I'm so old' blog) I seemed to have so many hours in the day, and now I feel like I have so few.

It is already February.

Can you believe it?

I was listening to a hymn today and it said:

"...our time as a stream Glide swiftly away

and the fugitive moment refuses to stay."

It has made me think: What do I do with my fugitive moments?

I have missed quite a few, I've made the most of some, and I hope I have the sense to do the best I can with the ones that remain, because they DO refuse to stay.

This life is meant to be enjoyed, and I know one thing for sure, I'm not going to "waste" my fugitive moments being busy.
