So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen . . .


 Adieu!

Well, my friends, it's that time of year again.  Scheduling is such this year that "No-Tech July" will begin a little early (like today, as soon as I log off!!!) and I'm really excited for it!  I plan to spend more time with my guitar this month and lots and lots of reading (well, we'll see how much down time I get, ha!).  We will be in the car a bit this month so there have been some adjustments for the kids this "no-tech July." They'll be allowed tech in the car only, at designated times, but we'll stretch "no-tech" into August at the house this year as a result.  I've heard from some moms that their children say to them, "Um, mom...you don't think what Mrs. Pierce does in July is a good idea...do you???"  Hehehe...

So, while we're away, maybe you'll get a haircut...

 Before

After
(She has since figured out some cool ways to jazz this up, cute cut!)

Or...
 Play a game or two with your brothers.
(or sisters, or friends, or brothers or sisters who are friends, (-:)

But whatever you do...
Don't leave your crayon box outside in this oppressive heat!!!
Came to discover the purple explosion in the microwave was a result of some quick thinking kid trying to melt the hardened crayon off of a marker...fyi...IT DIDN'T WORK!!!!!


So, that's that, I'll look forward to sharing a bit of our July adventures in August and I look forward to the end result of "No-Tech July," a much deeper connection to family, self, home and life in general!  Give it a try, you'll be amazed!
