Cranial Hiccups

Every once in a while and totally unintentionally my brain spews out a good idea.

Because it’s fun . . .

July 30, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 14 Comments

IMG_9985 …to tie dye t-shirts for the bookmobile craft.

IMG_9988 …to clean the kitchen dressed as a fifties housewife. This girl is such a hoot! I came in from working outside to find her dressed like this. “What, Mom? It’s more fun to clean this way!”

IMG_9949 …to ride in the loader with dad while he hauls hay.

IMG_0005 …to help herd the cows 10 miles down the lane to a different pasture, even if it’s very, very dusty.

    Your daughter is a hoot! But, ahem . . . her pearls are missing!

    I dressed as June Cleaver for the costume party at the Institute a couple of years ago and had a ball!

    LOVE the 50’s housewife option! I often feel like one in my apron and it really is a hoot. (Way more fun to clean that way!) What a super cute little woman!

    I love your daughters pic too. Thanks for sharing all your thoughts with the world. I appreciate feeling a common spirit with others that I don’t really know, like you. 🙂

    Great pictures. The last two remind me of what everyone does around here.

    My husband would be so jealous of being able to ride the tractor and round up cattle. I love the pics showing us how your day is!

    I’m gonna try cleaning like that if it makes cleaning fun! 🙂 Great to see you in the temple today! Would love to know how you tie dyed so well! My 1st attempt bombed!

    Now that would make cleaning more fun! Why didn’t I think of that?

    Looks like everyone is enjoying the summer!

    It’s the apron. It’s having the same effect on me. I just love to clean, while wearing it. Now all I need is a string of pearls.

    I have a darling apron I had made for me before I got married the second time. It’s a “Holly Hobbie” apron in baby blue & white gingham with a soft pink piping. It flares out like the petals of a flower and I so adore it!! I feel beautiful when I clean my kitchen in it. P.S. Dark chocolate with a glass of red wine…or milk chocolate all by itself. 🙂

    I can’t decide which one looks the most fun…… but dressing like a 50’s house wife fits in my schedule today so I’ll give it a go and have some fun!

    I think aprons make cleaning more fun, too. The tie dyes look awesome and the farming stuff looks, well, HOT (but that might be due to the temps here right now).
