Sheet Music

March 22, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

ChristinaYou write every now and then about sheet music. What do you have, where do you get it from, what do you recommend? Do you all sing from it, play it on the piano, or what? How often do you add to your collection? Growing up in a musical family, it’s a given that I […]

Living the Farm Life

March 16, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

{leah}“So I guess my questions are, did this start out as a hobby farm or did you marry a farmer? Does your husband have another job outside of the farm? How much do your girls help? Is it something they are expected to do like common chores around the house? How much of farm life […]

Wordfull Wednesday: Nurturing Love and Friendship in Marriage

March 9, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

Spring is almost here. For us, that means working the fields, fertilizing, dragging to break up manure from the cows that fed on them during the winter, spraying for weeds, and getting the pumps ready to go to irrigate as soon as it’s warm enough. We do all this work so we can have a […]

Adding PDF files to your blog

March 7, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

One drawback to having a free blog with blogger is the inability to easily upload files other than pictures or videos to your blog. I am often asked how to get files, specifically pdf files, onto a blog post. The only way to do it is to have your file “hosted” on another site. There […]

March Forth

March 4, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

I’ve come to love this date. Why? It’s an imperative. I pointed this out to my children this morning while doing school. One rolled her eyes, “I hate grammar.” I don’t know why that struck me as funny. Then I went online and discovered today is National Grammar Day. Hilarious! Are you a grammar lover? […]

Cooking with children

March 3, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

The magic of mixing ingredients together to produce yummy cookies and getting to spend time with mom or dad in the process of it all creates some fun experiences.

Cloth Diapering
