Good People


The world today can be a scary place;
Hard to keep your faith in the human race.
We're runnin' outta trees,
And we're runnin' outta space,
But we'll never run out of good people.

Ask 'em for a shovel,
And they'll dig you a hole.
Put the coffee on,
And drag you in from the cold.
If you get lost,
They'll show you where to go,
Even give you a ride, good people.

Good people aren't hard to find:
They're right around the corner,
At the end of the line, it's true!
Good people got peace of mind,
And I'd like to spend some time with you!
Ooh ooh ooh.

A man ain't nothing if he ain't got a friend,
Down and out without a penny to spend.
The bells above will ring in the end,
For good people.

Good people aren't hard to find:
They're right around the corner,
At the end of the line, it's true!
Good people got peace of mind,


And I'd like to spend some time with you!
Ooh ooh ooh.


Rich and poor are born to be free,
Fly around the world or sail the seven seas.
There ain't no place that I'd rather be,
Then here right now, with good people.

Good people aren't hard to find:
They're right around the corner,
At the end of the line, it's true!
Good people got peace of mind,
And I'd like to spend my time with you!

Good people aren't hard to find:
They're right around the corner,
At the end of the line, it's true!
Ooh ooh ooh.

The world today can be a scary place;
Hard to keep your faith in the human race.
We're runnin' outta trees,
And we're runnin' outta space,
But we'll never run out of good people.

Goofy

There's a guy on Alderwood between Cherrywood and Bennett.  He makes these awesome and yes, goofy, sculptures.  There's a sign that says "Walt's Goofies".  I think his name is Walt.  I'm just guessing.  His phone number, in case you like what you see, is (360) 733-7210.  I have no idea what his prices are but I smile every day when I drive by.  Thank you Walt for making people smile!

How can a homemade cake
not make your Hippie Heart Happy?
I am LOVING this weekly food celebration thing.
I am sure there will be more pictures to come

Greeting Spring


I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose I would always greet it in a garden.

The Science Fair recap

I didn't get a final count of the projects but there were many.  What I do know is that for the 2nd Annual Science Fair we had twice the parent/family/friend turnout to see the hard work all of the kids put in.  I was super proud of our Alderwood students that participated and their families who supported them.  From the bottom of my heart, thank you! 

Abby, Sarah, and Kim worked their patoots off and wrote a story, drew storyboards, input code into the Storytelling Alice program, answered their question, and put their board together.  They presented their project to the judge, got their scores, and then got their awesome ribbons.

My dad pushed the restart button for the animation.  We were very proud of him. ;)

Celebrate Life!



I am trying very hard to teach my family that celebrating life is important.
So, we have begun having a weekly food celebration!
This week we celebrated National Chip and Dip Day.
We had homemade potato chips, sweet potato chips, onion dip, Caprese dip, and much more.
Remember to ENJOY life.
Find reasons to gather with people and Celebrate Life!
Enjoy the Day!
