Between the Lions

We took Ginger to the Mississippi Museum of Arts today to see a puppet show of Between the Lions. It was wonderful! She loves the T.V. show on PBS, so I was pretty sure that she would sit and watch the live show. Except for getting a little fussy at the end of the program, she was such a good girl, dancing and clapping during the songs and skits. We also got to go through the Jim Henson exhibit while there. I have to say, though, that the highlight of the day was when Hutson was singled out in the audience for not singing and participating during the "ABC Song!" His punishment? He had to go to the front and take the microphone and lead the adults in singing our ABC's. Hilarious!!! (I have included a picture but wish desperately that I had it on video!!!) Needless to say, he participate whole-heartedly in every other activity and song.








Worth the drive to Jackson and the cost of the tickets just to see this!!!

The lions were more interesting than taking a family picture.

Lately...

We have made the move from the Delta back to the "Hills" and couldn't be happier! Hutson is at work in Starkville, and I am at home with Ginger for the rest of this week and then begin a long-term subbing position at Eupora Elementary for 8 weeks. We found a very cute house in Eupora to rent and are almost finished moving in and unpacking. I have decided that I do not want to move again for another 5 years! (Hutson and I have been married for three and a half years and are on our third house...too much!!!) Other than getting settled in and back to "normal," there is not much else going on in the Ford household.

Who doesn't love powdered doughnuts? Ginger is a huge fan!


I would venture to say that it was good night's rest!


This just cracks me up!

It Just Disappeared!

Ginger was highly upset when the apple puff she was slobering all over disappeared. I, however, couldn't stop laughing when I found it. Do you see where it went?

P.S. She still doesn't know where the apple puff went. Poor baby!
