Disclaimer: I don’t know Getting Nerdy. They’re not paying me. I just think it looks cool – and, I’m cheap! I ran across these 3-D Paper Dissection Models at Getting Nerdy and thought they looked really good. If you’re not going to use a real one then these would be a great option. Unless you…

Yesterday a-storm a-came. We were prepared. We made it to Chick-fil-a AND back with our Chicken Minis before the monsoon started. It seemed like the perfect day to get some stuff done. I warned SBW that the power might go out. But, he was all like, “I totally got this, Mom.” Okay, not really, but…

Hello, friends. Remember when we went to Israel and I was telling you all about it and then, I abruptly stopped in the middle? It was not that I didn’t finish writing about it but because the Masada pictures kicked my butt. I finished them today! Here’s what happened: Day 7, Sunday, October 17: Masada Masada…
