A Furry Visitor
This afternoon I came home to discover we had a special visitor at our house! (Yes, I’m aware that Bobo’s sweater is not buttoned correctly… I was so excited for him to see the visitor that I rushed him outside.) A kitty cat came to see us! I was really excited because Bobo loves animals,…

Reading up on Halloween
How awesome are Halloween children’s books? SO awesome. I’m so happy it’s autumny everywhere and Halloween is right around the corner… but I don’t want it to come too soon because by then fall will be nearly over. :/ I need to start thinking about costumes. Last year Bobo was a turkey and a cow……

He talked about it for months afterward (‘bus!’ ‘Juju!’ ‘bus!’ was actually the extent of the conversation, but I got…

Save the Words – Nifty!
In my early morning internet stumbling, I found this little bit of interesting: Save the Words by the people that bring you the Oxford English Dictionary. The premise is that you select one of the archaic words and ‘adopt’ it, pledging to use it in daily conversation, in your writing, or as a name for…

Labor Day Party
We had a nice little gathering yesterday, and it was a good time all around (the sad, untimely death of a crow aside). Of course, I didn’t really take pictures, but it was a beautiful day, nice and cool but sunny and clear. The whole weekend has been gorgeous. I spiked up Bobo’s hair, since…

Wordle
This is a word cloud thing from the Wordle website, featuring the most used words (biggest) of the recent entries on Bobo’s blog. I guess I use the phrase ‘so much fun’ way too much. Heh! It’s fun, go try it out if you’re bored.
