These last few weeks in the Morsel house have been a mix between extremely busy and wonderfully lazy. After recovering from a glorious weekend at the beach, applying aloe gel every morning, noon and night to my peeling/burning/still-red-as-a-lobster-skin, getting back into the school that I should have done weeks ago, taking long walks with Blessing, reading like crazy, practicing choir music, texting friends, planning get togethers, planning on planning our garden, sleeping in late, trying new recipes, making grilled cheese sandwiches with bacon...must I go on? One of the "big" things that happened is this: We released the hawks. After months of training, and feeding, and freaking out-ing, and hunting with the beautiful, amazing birds, we had to let them go. When you catch hawks, the deal is you train them. You hunt them. You enjoy them. Then you make them fat and let them go back into the wild. Hoping that whatever you taught them about hunting sticks w...

{A buncha things}
Say the word "buncha". I love saying that word. And now you do too. ~~~~~~~~~~ Absent. That's pretty much the only word I can use when it comes to me and my blog lately. It's been rather....silent around here. Well, I have come here, on the hot/breezy/insanely humid day, to fill you in on what's been going on recently. Sit back, and attempt to enjoy. ~Lake Winnie Home school Day 2013~ Every year, our local amusement park has a "Pay $17 dollars...ride all day long." kind of day. {I'm not really sure what else to call it.} Well, our home school group has taken this day, and made it "Home school Day". Every year our little kids ask about a million times "When is home school day?" This year, the middle Morse kiddos {Emily, Katie, Corban, Ben and Jakey.} set out to save enough money for their tickets so we could all go as a family. {Because even with the discounted price, it would be incredibly expensive fo...

I'm just gonna say it. My family is amazing . ~~~~~~~~~~~ Yesterday we went to the aquarium. We bought a membership, because it was cheaper that way. Friday just so happens to be the same day all of the schools go to the aquarium for a field trip. oh joy. We were constantly counting heads and making sure they were the right heads. I almost started herding a group of little boys the same size as ours, but then I noticed "Oh. These aren't our boys." Oops. I apologize to any parent I might have freaked out. I really wasn't trying to kidnap your children. Aside from being extra careful not to lose any Morse kids, we had a great time! But as a little "note to self" thingy... It's extremely hard to get good pictures when your in a dark aquarium. I used my flash twice, but then I turned it off because I didn't want to blind any fish. Or people . That's my excuse for the dark, blurry pictures. Ben isn't a hug...
