Making Errands Fun

**THROWBACK POST**

February 13 2016:

Making errands fun = Stop at the park.

Remove shoes and throw the football with son while feeling squishy wet grass between the toes.

Plus, walking barefoot in the leftover snow.

And rolling down a hill.

And playing with a paper airplane kite.

And they lived happily ever after.

The End.

United Nations Replica and Biggest Little Photographer Coming to Rancho San Rafael

January 15 2017:

This morning Thomas asked if he could show me what he’s been creating.

Minutes later I sat cuddled next to him looking at a replica of the UN building and grounds ….. in Minecraft. He says he did a few searches to find out what it looked like. xoxo

********************************

January 18 2017:

Message received today from Ranger Marie with Washoe County Parks – Ranch San Rafael Park … “We’d love to help share Thomas’ book with the community and discuss an exhibit. I am so happy! I talked to all the Rangers about it and we are so thrilled!!!! …. you can call me on my personal cell anytime …. ”

PLUS an email from one of the BIG casino’s here in town about the book for their gift shop … We shall see what happens with this one …

It is when we are in the depths of our own darkness, we can rest assured the light and solutions are simply awaiting our embrace of said darkness ….. for the light will shine, shine, shine once we patiently dance with the darkness … xoxo

Lillian shares why she loves this time of year ….. The wind had quite a bit to say too so some is muffled. Yet, I think you can hear most of it!

Thomas and Camilla November 2016 Date Day

December 2 2016:

Thomas and Camilla November 2016 Date Day … wee bit late – last stop –Great Full Gardens South Meadows Reno: We were only going to get Thomas dessert. Surprise! Happy Hour with half price appetizers!! So we added Vegan Stuffed Portobello mushrooms. Words cannot even describe how yummy these tasted! Thomas dessert: Bread pudding! Our plates were all but licked clean!!!!

1st stop – Galena Creek Visitors Center. 2nd stop – Galena Park

It was so cold …. about 15 degrees … that my phone went dead after the magical tree picture. Perhaps so that I could truly soak it all in without distraction. Phone came back on once we got back down Mt. Rose Hwy. xoxo

Simply love this area. So peaceful and serene ….. incredibly beautiful and majestic with gigantic pine cones. I am hugely blessed this is what Thomas chooses for Date Day.
