Do the unexpected

November 6, 2008 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 19 Comments

Today was one of those non-stop days where everything was just go, go, go. I should feel completely and utterly exhausted but I don’t. The main reason, I think, is because most of the afternoon was spent in cooking some delicious enchiladas – three big pans full – to take to some families in our […]

November 5, 2008 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 8 Comments

Sorry this is being posted so late today. I had a busy day! The other day I picked up two HUGE packages from the post office. I could barely see over them, let alone open any doors on my way out. My mind was made up to push the handicap button that would open the […]

Anyone know where we can get manly aprons? We need help! Somehow the Flamenco inspired ones we have just don’t cut it for a boy. Even if they are lime green. © 2007-2013 Chocolate on my Cranium, LLC all rights reserved

Presidential Election Lapbook

November 4, 2008 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 1 Comment

I’ve received several e-mails about where we got our information and books for our Presidential Election Lapbooks. I guess if I was really on top of things I would have shared this at least a week ago so there would be more time to cover this before the election ends today. It won’t hurt to […]

Service – The Candy Bomber FHE

Have any leftover Halloween candy? I’ve been wanting to share this family home evening lesson with you for quite a while now but decided right after Halloween would be best. You’ll need some of that candy to do an activity after reading about Colonel Gail Halvorsen, more famously known as The Candy Bomber. The lesson […]

Celebrating Fall

October 30, 2008 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 9 Comments

The question this week from the Heart of the Matter is: Halloween or Fall? How does your family celebrate? Growing up my family LOVED celebrating Halloween. I remember my dad making a haunted house for the trick-or-treaters in the old barn/shed behind our house in Salt Lake. Later when I was about 10 my dad […]

Thanks and Giving

October 30, 2008 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 60 Comments

Autumn is my favorite time of year. One of the main reasons is because I LOVE Thanksgiving. I think it’s wonderful to celebrate all the bounteous goodness God has blessed us with. To gather round with family and friends and enjoy good food and great company. It also helps that Thanksgiving is not so commercialized […]
