I thought I'd join the other bloggers doing Owlhaven's $75 a Week Grocery Challenge.

I know it's doable but I'll have to be much more creative than I am now and spend MUCH more time in the kitchen. I think I'm up for the challenge. I know some people would feel like they won the lotto if they had $75 a week to spend, but I'm spoiled and so are my kids so we'll see. Hopefully the hubby doesn't mind either:-) We do have quite a good stockpile to eat off of so that will help.

Any one else up to the challenge? I'll be starting tomorrow, we're almost out of toilet paper so I'll be going shopping right away!

Wowser!

You need to check this site out. Gross! I am ignoring the ketchup though:-)

Oh the things they say...

Lula again! The scene is in the van after visiting a dairy farm.

Lula: How come they don't milk the boys, they have that long thing?

Me: choking to death on my own laughter.

Shad: That's their p***s.

Me: still about to die from laughter.

Lula (brain ticking away): Yeah if you did that then you would drink pee and that would be gross.

Wow! I wish they were a little less observant sometimes:-)

I hate this time of year!

Can everybody just put some clothes on and clothes that COVER your nakedness!!!!

My sweet baby girl asked for a two piece bathing suit. So daddy had to have the "boys like to look at pretty girls" speech. How do you explain lust tactfully to a 6 year old. How do you tell her that when boys lusts it is a sin and if you caused it then you to have sinned also. ARRRR!!! How do you explain to her that 99% of the population is different from us in our views on clothing. How do you tell her that girl with her boobs hanging out isn't being pretty in the eyes of the LORD only whorish??

Well it time to bust out the discretion sermons and take notes on the 11 guidelines on making any decision. Whether in be clothes, choosing friends and what not. Then tattoo them into her sweet little head, at least till next year. (Which by the way in the only tattoo she can have! LOL)
