Your question was: How much does Nutrisystem cost for you?.
My husband and I do Nutrisystem together, but we order one order and share the food, and each of us flexes some meals (I get all breakfasts, he flexes breakfast, we split lunches and dinners and flexing them, and he flexes one of his Nutrisystem desserts a day.) I also buy extra food off people here on the boards to supplement ours..
I spend about $75 a week in groceries for add ins and the flexing food...
I live alone and spend about $80 a week on salads,dressings.fresh fruits/etc. dieting is not cheap. I compared the weight watchers back of box. cal. same/fat.sodium/others pretty much same and dinners on sale at $2.00 much cheaper. I think this might be my last order for awhile...
I believe if you add up what you two where spending each month on ALL your foods, including everything you spent on eating lunch at work and going out to eat etc. I feel it may be CLOSE to the same? Maybe a little more now with NS, but I bet it's not much more. Also, your getting more then just Nutrisystem food. Your getting 24/7 support / counseling if needed. That has value too..
I don't know you good enough to know if my statement is all correct. I'm just going by what I USE to spend and what I've read others say about this same subject. I was spending around $250 a month just at my works cafeteria ! That was just for lunch!..
I feel like I'm at the grocery store more now than I was before I had food delivered to my door!!! It's okay. I don't care what it costs to be honest. There really is nothing more important to me than getting healthy, active, and thin. I haven't added it up but I'd say it is around 75 a week...
I definitely try to find more budget friendly add-in's.
Yogurt - I buy the store brand for $0.35 a container.
I often eat a hard boiled egg for my lunch protein..
I also always have a glass of milk..
So that's about $5 for those..
I buy fresh cabbage and carrots, frozen store brand veggies, and look for what's on sale that week. I stopped doing salads because those were really expensive for me. I probably spend $10 a week on veggies..
I buy some frozen fruit (strawberries), some canned (pineapple), some fresh (whatever's on sale), and some little juice boxes. I probably spend $10 a week on fruit..
Then condiments or extras usually are another $5. So that's about $30 a week for mine...
I would guess-timate that I spend about $70 or less every other week on add-ins. (Thank you, Costco! ) Bulk veggies, bulk yogurt, bulk fruits, etc. I used to spend around $25-50 per day on just dinner (my BF loves steak!).
The only things I buy one-off at the grocery store are v-8 light (my Costco doesn't sell it) and any fruit/veg/etc. that I want to try before buying in bulk. I guess I'm lucky that I can get most everything at Costco, and that I'm only buying for myself. I'm definately spending less! It just doesn't feel like less, because I'm dropping that $300 all at once, instead of a little bit every day...
I spend about $75.00 every 10 days for extras and some of the foods I buy to substitute for some Nutrisystem meals. I flex a few meals per week to save a little money. Kashi Go Lean for Breakfast.Some of the WW frozen meals meet the Nutrisystem stats. I buy some South Beach or Kashi Bars for dessert and I have also bought some nutrisystem from Big Lots. I also bulk buy at costco for my frozen veggies and fruits. The nearest I figure is that I am spending about $50.00 more a month for my food then I was spending before Nutrisystem.
I think the correct comparison would be to compare if I had been buying healthy foods at the store before. I was eating a lot of junk which is what got me here. I think Nutrisystem is worth every penny...
Hard to say what I spend, but agree that eating healthy costs more. I am fortunate to have a garden. Right now, I am "only" harvesting lettuce, but since that was my most expensive add-on, I love it. Look for farmer's markets in your area where you can find better fresh produce cheaper. Look for sales, froze spinach is much cheaper than fresh. Buy seasonal items.
Because DH is not on the program, and we have lots of animals, I don't know how much we spend on my add-ins, but we rarely go out now, so that saves $$. When we do go out, I always have enough to bring another meal home..
Good luck - it's worth it to stay on NS. At least for me...
I never figured how much I spend on add ins while on NS, but it really doesn't matter to me. I know I was eating a lot of junk and dinners out alot before, which sure isn't cheap. also, Nutrisystem is helping me get healthier - and my health is worth way more than any amount of money!..
If you have time next time you are at the store, take a calculator and add up all the crap you used to buy and then compare. Thats not including eating out. Heck one bag of chips is $3.00 to $3.50. Thats not counting, desserts, donuts, candy, ice cream etc. It's kind of intersting just to actually see how much you would have bought pre ns. Thats what I did and I was shocked, Nancy..
I spend a ton of $$$ on groceries. I have 3 growing boys and a step son who is with us 50% of the time plus my husband. Me being on Nutrisystem is the best thing that has happened to all of us because I buy huge quantities of fruits and veggies and very little crap. We are all eating better now! If I had to break it down though, I think I spend anywhere from $45 to $75 on just me. It depends on my needs. Out of salad dressing and the bill goes up...craving a fruit that's not in season...the bill goes way up!..
What was your monthly grocery bill before?.
Did that include work day lunches?..
To keep fresh veggies and fruit, one must go to the store more often. That was something I wasn't use to! But, my DW works at Walmart, so I just give her a list, often! LOL.
I'm definitely "thrifty" my DW says I'm just cheep! LOL But you are so right, doing the things you listed above to save money. I keep a few eggs boiled for quick breakfast protein. I buy store brand un-sweetend apple sauce for fruit, and bananas are cheep.
Like someone else posted, I have garden, about a 900sq ft garden! I'm growing corn, tomatoes, bell peppers, okra, cucumbers, squash, cantaloupe and onions. I grow enough to feed 12 family members with plenty to spare! Plus I use it for exercise! Even if you don't have room for a large garden, a couple of 4x8 raised beds will grow all you two can eat...
I spend about $40-100 a week (the amount I spend widely varies depending on how much I am flexing that week). I only get Nutrisystem orders every 2-3 months..
Before NS, I was spending around $600/month just for myself eating out all the time...
The problem is that generally the "cheap" food isn't that great for you. When I was a single mom with a cruddy job ten years ago, we ate a lot of mac n cheese, hot dogs, white bread, ramen noodles, pastas, canned veggies, and potatoes - because they were cheap. If you compare that type of grocery list to what we spend on Nutrisystem and for add-ins...NS does seem expensive. And no wonder I got so fat!! I am so thankful I am now in a position that I can afford this program because it is working so well for me, I am learning so much, and it is worth every penny.
Anyway after all of that rambling - I don't really flex meals very often at all, and spend about $60 a week on add ins, I blame the Greek Yogurt...
I spend just about exactly what you do on the extras, it is very expensive, after next month I am trying it on my own and compare what I spend...
Without a doubt Nutrisystem isn't cheap.
Think of your old habits that's what I did.
Dinners out for two - at least $45 plus tip.
Lunch out for one - $10 plus tip..
We no longer purchase chips, candy, ice cream, sugary cereal, corn dogs, pizza.
The problem with Nutrisystem is paying it all at once makes it feel worse. If you need to, add some healthy alternatives like others have mentioned to stretch the Nutrisystem out.
Don't give up over cost, if you can at all help it. This is so important for your health.
Now to answer your question. I purchase fruits and veggies at a produce market and a few frozen they are pretty reasonable. My grocery bill has dropped drastically. I've got my husband on a diet and he hasn't realized it yet. I'm probably spending $60 a week for both of us. I'm frugal though..
Another suggestion is to check out any one dollar stores in your area. They often have a frozen section where you can find frozen veggies, and a friend goes to one that actually has fresh produce...
It's not that Nutrisystem is expensive (which I personally don't think it is it is the up-front cost for the month of food that shocks some), but rather eating healthy is expensive..
If you look at most restaurant specials, they are piling up your plates with inexpensive items such as pasta, rice, potatoes and offering little by the way of fresh vegetables and proteins, outside of chicken which is by far the least expensive..
Just walk around the supermarket and you will see that the "healthier" versions of foods - low-fat, low sodium, low-sugar, etc. are more expensive and often not included when products go on sale. I find that very annoying. When just starting out on NS, you end up spending a lot until you get your staples purchases (ICBINB, syrup, SF jam, spices, etc.).
For your weekly purchases, you have to be a smart shopper or frugal and buy when things are on sale. Chicken breasts are on sale pretty much every week between the two supermarkets near me. I'm not going to pay $5.50 to $5.99 per pound when I can get it for $1.99 to $2.79 either next week or making another stop. Sure there are those times that you have no choice and you grab and go, but you need to be an opportunistic shopper.
When Fage yogurt goes on sale for $1.00 (lately the new sale price seems to be $1.25 ), I stock up with a month's worth. When I offer to pick some up for one of my friends, he only wants 5 for his week supply. Why would you do that when it is $1.75 to $1.99 regularly? When shredded cheese, string cheese, laughing cow, cereal, etc. are on sale, then you stock up on them. Same with cans of tuna - they always go on sale for $0.89 so why would you pay more than double that when the stuff can sit in your cabinet for a year? Peppers have been $4 and $5 per pound for the past few weeks (not sure what is going on there). I am not a huge pepper fan to begin with but there is no way I am spending that on peppers.
There are some things I don't scrimp on, such as my Fage greek yogurt addiction even though every other brand of greek yogurt goes on sale weekly. If you don't want to spend nearly $2 for a single-serve container of greek yogurt, then just buy the Dannon which are always on sale for $0.40 to $0.50 each (and less with coupons) and top off the shortfall in protein with an egg white or slice of FF cheese...
I don't spend a whole lot on add ins. Mine are fresh fruits and veggies, yogurt, and eggs. I don't do lunch meat or much cheese, no veggie burgers or hot dogs. Way too much salt for me, since the Nutrisystem food alone adds up to about how much sodium I eat in a day..
The add ins I buy are things the rest of my family eats too, so it really isn't an added expense...

Dr. Roberta E. ZlokowerApril 12, 2009
This CD is a tremendous surprise, for a listener not familiar with Dr. Mariamas musicality. When shes not singing, Dr. Mariama presents curriculum integration workshops for teachers and students that celebrate and feature African American culture. She was also a dancer, and that inherent physical rhythm is apparent in her vivacious vocal rhythm. This very professional recording includes songs by Stevie Wonder, Count Basie, and Ivan Lins. The nine musicians assembled for the instrumentations are at the top of their game.
Notable tracks:
#1 Wild Women Never Get (Have) the Blues Composed by Ida Cox. Assisted generously by Curtis Robinson on guitar and a percussive contingent, Marguerite Mariama belts out this retro title track in persuasive bluesy style. Dr. Mariama has exceptional vocal strength and dramatic delivery, drawing the listener in.
#2 Home Composed by Charlie Smalls. With side allusions to Brooklyn, Dr. Mariama sings this song from The Wiz with entertaining enthusiasm. The piano, bass, drum, and percussive instrumentations are critical in the pulsating, punctuated rhythms that drive this track.
#4 Ill Be So Glad Composed by Jimmy Sigler. In this song, Dr. Mariamas vocals soar almost as high as Chico Freemans tenor sax. This is a unique arrangement, sung with verve and vivacity. Piano, bass, and drums keep a steady tempo throbbing throughout this track.
#7 Goin to Chicago Composed by William Count Basie/Jimmy Rushing/Quincy Jones. This is my favorite track, with echoing orchestrations from the full ensemble, like a chugging train to Chicago. Dr. Mariama opens with jazzy swing, as shes joyous about a return to a favorite town, and she brings the listeners along for the ride.

Q. What kind of cameras can I use?
A. Any digital camera (make/model) should do just fine.
Q. How many pictures do I need to take?
A. You need to take two pictures.
Q. Can I take pictures by holding the camera sideway?
A. Yes, but you must be consistent in the way you take the two pictures.
Q. How should I take these two pictures?
A. Take one picture of the objects that you want to measure, and then walk sideway a few steps and take another picture. Maintain roughly the same distance to the objects in the two shots and do not pan the camera too much (the viewing directions of the two shots should be roughly parallel). Do not change any setting on the camera; just point and shoot.
Q. Can I walk forward or backward instead of sideway?
A. It is not recommended that the two pictures be taken with a front-and-back movement. A roughly sideway motion can better ensure high metrology accuracy.
Q. Do I need to use a tripod?
A. It is not necessary to use a tripod, as long as the camera can be held steadily with no shaking or vibration.
Q. Should I use flash?
A. Flash is not necessary if there is sufficient lighting. However, you should use flash if there is not enough lighting. If you use flash, make sure that flash is on for both pictures.
Q. What picture resolution should I use?
A. We recommend at least 1M (e.g., 1280x960 or 1600x1200) for indoor scenes and at least 2M (e.g., 2048x1536 or 2560x1920) for outdoor scenes.
Q. What focal length (or field of view) should I use?
A. You can use any focal length setting as long as the objects to be measured are clearly visible and of a good size (not too small) in both pictures. Do not change the focal length setting in the two pictures.
Q. When taking pictures, how far away should I stand from the objects to be measured?
A. Stand at a distance so that the objects to be measured are clearly visible and of a good size (not too small) in the two pictures.
Q. Can objects move in the two pictures?
A. Objects in the pictures can move. However, you can only measure the dimensions of stationary objects, not moving objects, in the pictures.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Bluefire Equipment Corp. provides unique tools for the oil and gas industry. The Company is developing proprietary drilling technologies for the extraction of oil and gas. Bluefire's emphasis is on premier engineering and manufacturing techniques.
Mr. William Blackwell is the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President and Director of Bluefire Equipment Corp. Mr. Blackwell is a Legend Member of the National Society of Professional Engineers, Texas Society of Professional Engineers, Associate Member of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, and also a Licensed Professional Engineer in Texas.
Pertaining to PDC (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact) Drill Bits, the Company's exclusive technology provides maximum Rate of Penetration (ROP) as well as longer bit runs in hard rock formations and shales. The diamond teeth of drill bits are typically known as PDC cutters.
Bluefire Equipment bits utilize large face volumes for fast drilling of shales, sandstones, limestones, and sticky clays. In addition, the Company's bits employ first-class PDC cutters for improved ROP. The design of them is with CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) directed ports to speed up cleaning and optimize cooling of large diameter PDC cutters.
Dr. Anatoli Borissov heads the research and design team at Bluefire Equipment. Dr. Borissov is a well-known physicist. His expertise is in thermodynamics and fluid dynamics. He has used CFD to optimize Bluefire bits in the product development cycle.
The Company's design utilizes strategically aligned nozzles to concentrate high-pressure jet streams directly upon the cutting edge that lubricates the points of contact where the cutters meet the drilling surface. The result is a bit that runs cooler as well as cleaner. This results in longer bit runs.
In addition, the hydraulic configuration enables the removal of free-floating particles and cuttings away from the cutting surface and into the annulus. In essence, Bluefire's technology permits operators to drill quicker and deeper than conventional bit designs.
The Company's technology provides a practical solution to extending the longevity of PDC drill bits through more effectively cleaning and cooling the face of the cutters at the point where they are engaged in cutting geological formations. Bluefire's design utilizes the use of a larger number of smaller nozzles. These smaller nozzles direct high-pressure jet streams directly to the point where the cutters are in contact with the formation.
Why is all this important for the oil and gas industry? It's because the Company's proprietary and patented technologies have the potential to save millions of dollars in costs for drillers. Directional Drillers often spend considerable time and money ascertaining the most cost efficient route to reserves. Directional drilling is the practice of drilling non-vertical wells to reach the intended target.
Bluefire's patented design improves cleaning and scouring action. This patented design also improves the removal of drill filings, and the lubrication of PDC cutters. The Company offers ease of navigation in directional drilling applications.
Bluefire says that it anticipates explosive growth in this field. The Company also says that it is prepared to supply the requirements of domestic and international oilfield operators.

Western Industrial culture has trained us to ignore our inner knowing and intuitive
senses in favor of purely "rational" thought processes. Yet one of the major shifts we're
experiencing in this culture today is an increasing acceptance of the validity of intuitive
The root meaning of the word Intuition is "teaching from within," and elders and
spiritual teachers across the ages have stated that much of what we really need to know
about ourselves and the world around us can be learned more effectively by "going
within" than by listening to others. An exploration of the literature – both experimental and
experiential – provides a few simple principles which encourage consistency in this kind of
intuitive awareness.
Applying these principles on a regular basis has been demonstrated anecdotally, and
appears experimentally, to provide significant enhancement of analytical decision-making
processes and can therefore lead to more effective implementation of plans for the future.

CLA really gives my body the little extra it needs to burn off fat. I have tried a few other brands but this is definitely my favorite.Report this review
I have been trying for a long time to loose my c-section belly fat. I combine this with the L-Carntine, and use the protien shakes for meal replacement. Along with clean eating. I have lost 16 lbs in the last month. At first I had to take with food, now not so much. I definitely see a difference in my hanging belly and am so glad to have tried these products! I can't wait to start the burner for an added boost!Report this review
I have never used supplements and ordered CLA and L-CARNITINE from IdealFit to see if it could help me get over this plateau. I have been using both and I immediately saw a difference (within a few days). Since I have started both products, I am looking more lean and have been losing about a pound to a pound and a half per week, where I seemed to be stalled before. I have maintained the same diet (pretty clean/healthy with a reasonable splurge meal or two on weekends) and also exercising 5-6 days per week. Since I'm new to supplements, I'm not sure which product is making the most impact, but I definitely recommend the combo of the two.Report this review

If you have never been to Maryland, you are in for a real treat. Maryland is one of those states that has gotten a bad rap over the years. It is thought of a city area and the natural beauty of the state has been forgotten. However, we are going to take you by the hand today and show you where you can see some of the most scenic areas of the state.
If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, there are few areas that are as beautiful as Swallow Falls State Park. Here you will be able to visit one of the largest waterfalls in Maryland, Muddy Creek Falls. Do not let the name fool you, you just may be tempted to shower under the crystal clear water as it falls below! In addition, you can always take the quick hike over to Swallow Falls. Either of the falls makes for a perfect day of relaxing or playing. In fact, be sure to bring a picnic lunch and simply enjoy the sound of the rushing water.
I think it is safe to say we all dream f that one vacation that is like a dream that just doesn't want to end. Who knew that Maryland had the ability to offer up such a vacation. All you have to do is head to Assateague Island for the vacation of a lifetime. If you have never heard of Assateague Island, it features incredibly white sandy beaches and gorgeous horse galloping in the cool waters of the Atlantic! Now tell me you have never once dreamed of donning your favorite swimsuit and galloping across the waves on a beautiful steed? This is truly one of those areas that must be visited to be believed.
No matter how incredible life is on this planet, we all have that one hope of just finding life out there. While we have no mighty starships or transporters just yet, it is possible to visit a somewhat alien planet right here in Maryland. Take the journey over to Crystal Grottoes Caverns. With all of the incredible formations, you will feel like you are part of an away team and on the search for Captian Kirk…let's just hope you don't have your red shirt on!
Visit one or all three and you will feel a spiritual connection to nature once again.

How to Make a Baby with 2 Kids in the House
Trying to make a baby when you have two kids under four creates some challenges. When we were trying to conceive my daughter, it was much easier to have sex when and where we wanted. Spontaneity kept it from being a chore.
Now there are bedtime routines, bad dreams to soothe away and the risk of being walked in on or interrupted times two. We have to plan a bit more to coordinate our sexy time (which doesn't sound very sexy, I know). Plus, we're tired.
I fully admit to falling asleep occasionally on nights designated for doing the deed.
RELATED: Scheduled Sex is Not So Sexy
Since I don't know when I'm ovulating despite charting and using ovulation prediction tests, we can't rely on getting busy only a few times a month. Instead, our goal is to increase intimacy throughout the month and hope we hit my fertile window. (It's also supposed to be good for sperm production—we need good swimmers!) Having more frequent baby-making sessions sounds great in theory, but isn't always practical to execute with young children in the house.
Just what am I supposed to do if I ever test positive for impending ovulation anyway? Back in the day, I'd plan to tackle my husband as soon as possible, but now … now I would need to wear out the kids extra good so they want to go to bed early and would attain a nice deep sleep throughout the night.
Having more frequent baby-making sessions sounds great in theory, but isn't always practical to execute with young children in the house.
And did I mention we're tired? It's not the same tired as the sleep-deprived newborn days, but the days often feel long and the bed so cozy and zzzzz. That and my concept of time is skewed since becoming a mom. I swear the last time we got busy was just the other night—or was it two nights ago? Oh wait, my trusty app tells me it was more like four days ago. How'd that happen? Good thing I'm not leaving all of this up to my memory.
So how exactly are we supposed to make this baby then? Without taking all the fun out of it?
In some ways, it feels like we're back in high school sneaking around, except instead of hiding our activities from our parents, we're trying to keep the kids from catching us. (That has only happened once, but is a funny story for another time.) Sometimes, on a rare date night, we'll go on a faux date where we enjoy ourselves in a kid-free house, but mostly it's after the kids go to sleep.
RELATED: 10 Ways to Get Your Baby to Sleep Well
We've attempted to entertain the kids with a movie or in the playroom while we get frisky, but just like when I'm on the phone, they somehow sense that I'm busy and suddenly need us. Lucky for us, once our kids are asleep, they usually are down for the night. If it's going to be a rough night with frequent wakings from one or both kids, it usually starts well before we hit the sheets, though it can be hard to predict the random, middle-of-the-night request to be tucked back in.
To keep an illusion of spontaneity, I keep track of when we have sex in my app but don't tell my husband the schedule. He generally does not know my estimated fertile window. I like to drop hints to him earlier in the day about what my bedtime plans are and make sure we go to bed at the same time. We take turns initiating, but also know that once in awhile we might have to wake the other when all is calm throughout our home.
And we're always prepared for interruptions. Marathon sessions are out; fun, quick sessions are in. Now let's hope we time our baby-making nights right this month!

Band: The Von Deer Skulls
Location: France
Music Genre: Post Doom Metal
The Von Deer Skulls is a french based & masked band with strange origins, the members come from France, Germany and Canada. Formed at the end of October 2012, helped by our friend and visual artist Peter Skull, we work since to develop a little more our identity.
In the second half of 2013, we have released their first video-clip as a prequel of our sound with the song "B*tches Of The Wood". Then, in the first quarter of 2014, after have worked and reworked on some ideas, we decided to fix it on an E.P. of 9 tracks : "It's Time To Paralyze E.P."
The physical version was released at the beginning of the second quarter of that year. After the released of their album "The Damned Chapter - Remixes & Rarities" the 31st October 2014, we work on new songs for the next cycle of their music, with new musicians & friends, and we released a new single the 25 February 2015 for the Tool's cover of their song "Right In Two" and a full remix album of our first E.P. named "It's Time To Remixyze".
Since June 2015 we are working on our new LP, right now we are recording it during the summer and the end of 2015, the new tour is the next step after that and drums will be recorded in august. The new LP will be out in winter 2016 on the Wraith

Beautiful Smoking ceremony today performed by Marbee Williams on Boonwurrung Country. This was also the launch of Learning Stones, the first in inner-city Melbourne. Great turnout by the community, my kids also joined in the celebration. 🖐🏾🖤💛❤✊🏾
What a fantastic time at Lowanna College,great opening ceremony and plenty of tucker for morning tea.Ronald Edwards Smoking ceremony, Brett Windsor Principal's address, Indigenous students who worked on the site are also pictured receiving Cert. of Appreciation.
One main focus of Learning stones is creating opportunities for student personal growth and leadership through practical application and experiences. We have asked students in our local schools to take on a mentoring/ role model/ small group discussion/ public speaking for younger students. It was marvelous to see Laura Young take on the task, she spoke well and her family and community can be proud of our youth who are stepping up. Well done Laura.
Opening ceremony 11th May 11.30am South Gippsland Specialist School
What a privilege to join with South Gippsland Specialist School as they celebrated the opening of their learning stones today. It has been 3 years in the making with a lot of help from community, parents and friends but the journey has certainly been worth the investment. The story pole painting, design and placement was done by students from both Yooralla and South Gippsland Specialist School
The Learning Stones initiative is the combined work of school and community groups to build stronger ties and greater awareness of local indigenous culture.
The Learning Stones space is for everyone – the core purpose of the area is to create a safe place for exploration and respect of self and others through education.
Learning Stones creates a forum to discuss Aboriginal history, lore and traditions in both past and present as well as contemporary lifestyle and aspirations. This is part of all our history and future and I envision a curriculum available for all students in all schools.
The Learning Stones Project at Wonthaggi Secondary College is part of the Learning Stones initiative that has been embraced by both the Indigenous and non-Indigenous in our school and local communities. Presently there are over 50 sites in various stages of development around our area. For any information please contact John Murray at firstname.lastname@example.com
The four colours in the Learning Stones symbol are red for COMMUNITY, green for SCHOOL,
yellow for FAMILY and brown for STUDENTS. All are linked. We are all connected.
Check out the documented Learningstone journey by kindergarten teacher Kim Smith of Fish Creek Kindergarten. This is an excellent report which maps the steps over a 2 year period, from initial talks and planning to design and implementation. Finished with the official opening and subsequent use of their site.

Hastings PS started our Learning Stone 'journey' 12 months ago when we were introduced to the concept by John Murray at Peninsula Specialist School. From that day we began planning how to make this happen for our school. Firstly, we recognised the need for funding to support the project, and which would determine how far we could take the process. With the support of our local councillor, David Garnock, we applied for and was granted a Mornington Peninsula Shire Community partnership grant of $5000. With this funding we began planning more than just a Learning Stone space, but a full cultural program based on indigenous art and history.
nitially we invited families of our indigenous students to participate in the planning and development of the area and the cultural experiences our students would be involved in. From this came a small, key group team who then co-ordinated and shared information. The plan was to form the garden space, install seating to ensure it was a comfortable and inviting learning space, frame it with painted totem poles and fence palings. We selected an area of the school that was in need of developing and ensured it was in the public eye so the whole community could enjoy the area, not just the school community.
Where possible we asked local businesses for support and gained great interest and donations. We ended up having donations of a beautiful large stone from Hillview Quarries, all our indigenous garden plants from Tall Trees and support from Everest Timber, Coates Hire and Tree and Stump Eaters, Hastings.
Many different groups became involved including Western Port SC, Willum Warrain, KESO educators, shire representatives, families, staff and our entire student community. Every class, of which we have 11, was given a totem pole to design and paint, as well as a Dreamtime story to interpret on canvas. This way every student in the school played a significant part in the art work. With the close collaboration of the project co-ordinators, Kirsty Bell and Adrienne Meyer, with the arts specialists and staff, it has been possible to achieve so much. The totems are in the garden now and the canvases are on public display throughout the school. A Bunjil nest, full of personal messages on painted sticks from every student, was also created during the opening this week. There is one further very large art project to be completed early in Term 4, seeing the full expenditure of the grant.
Following the official opening of our Learning Stone Cultural Garden this week, we know all of our students are very connected to the cultural experiences they have participated in, because everyone had a part to play, not just our Koori students. Our Koori students are very proud to have lead this project in their classrooms and specialist areas, and to have accessed a wide range of people who have given us special activities profiling Koori culture.

Thank you for a wonderful event yesterday at Tarwin Lower Primary School. The Welcome to Country ceremony and the welcoming of Annette, Kaya and Sativa was a significant moment for our community to be a part of. The KESO staff were delightful to work with and the stories and boomerang throwing was a hit. One of my parents commented on how excellent that it was the children were being taught how to throw a boomerang by a traditional user.
The kettle will always be put on for a cuppa for you all.

Bass Valley Primary School were delighted to open our 'Learning Stone' area on Thursday 4th Of December with a smoking ceremony conducted by John Murray. Our Learning Stone is a great source of pride to our students, staff and school community. We were very proud that our ceremony began with Sonia Weston welcoming our school community to her country on behalf of the Boonwrung people. John then conducted a moving smoking ceremony during which all community members walked though the smoke and listened to John explain the significance of the ceremony and his hopes for how we would make use of our space. Our students love making use of the space as a place to reflect, share stories and learn about indigenous culture and history. We are also proud to have shared the day with our good friends from JLM Pre-school who conducted their Learning Stone opening immediately preceding ours. We warmly thank both John, Sonia and our other guests for sharing the day with us and look forward to welcoming them back to our school and our Learning Stone space in the near future.

"The opening of our Learning Stone was an important event for our community. This space within our school grounds will provide a place where we can meet to engage not only with our indigenous history and community,
but with our community as a whole. As a school we are looking forward to developing our Learning Stone into a place where quality teaching and learning occurs as well as it being a place for reflection and support.
It is a place that links not only our past, but our future as well. The mural created by our students represents or learning community and helps create an atmosphere of welcome. Our community thanks John Murray and our Koorie Engagement Officers for their support and initiative in helping us create an important place within our school and community."
Thanks again John.

the Learning Stone site unique and tie in with indigenous culture and the
broader community.Through discussions with John, Steve and the children, the idea was born.
With the knowledge and guidance of some talented locals we created a
unique, safe and welcoming area to come and just be.The site also reflects the significance of our surfing community and
indigenous culture. This journey has already shown how communities can come
together to create create a special place for all.*Karen Treppo – Coordinator*
Students from Bass Coast Specialist school have embraced the journey involved in creating a Learning stone space. This artwork was designed in collaboration with the students after a workshop on traditional indigenous painting with John Murray. The students made sure that every family was represented in this picture about who we are and where we come from. It is not always easy to understand abstract concepts when you are managing an intellectual disability, however the conversation generated during the creation of this artwork saw students build a complex understanding of the symbolism in this piece. Students gathering around the finished product eagerly sought and identified their place in the picture and history.
We look forward to sharing the continuing journey and celebrating the sense of community that the Learning Stone is bringing to our school.

A young fella came to us on a Monday mid-way through term 4. He had been placed in foster care over the weekend and had therefore left his previous school without the chance to say goodbye. He was extremely anxious when he arrived, very unsettled and did not speak with us while in the office. As he came through the office building into the playground he spotted our Learning Stone surrounded by an Indigenous garden and our colourful mural depicting Bunjil the eagle. With great excitement and pointing to the Learning Stone, the boy said "hey, we've got one of those at my old school". He seemed to relax straight away. He ran up the Learning Stone, touched it and other children were drawn in by his enthusiasm. This young fella was not with us for long but while he was here, he seemed happy and I have no doubt that the familiarity of the Learning Stone helped him to connect with us and gave him a sense of stability, security and belonging.

Trish Bowler DEECD Social Worker I just wanted to let you know my small experience of utilizing the learning stones in our local schools which I have found incredibly helpful. It was identified by a student to me recently, when they were unable to participate in a group as they were having some emotional difficulties, as a place they could go and just calm. I saw it worked really well for this student. It provided a great space for this student to collect their thoughts and sit and helped them to calm. Another student for similar reasons was utilizing the space, it was great to see the student have a space to go to 'just be' and to calm and have some time away from others. I also noted this student was particularly interested in the feel of the pillars and the stone in the area and would roll their hand over the coldness and texture of the stones and look at the designs and students work there. This also seemed to help them to help themselves to calm and be with themselves in a quiet space. The learning stone in one particular school is at one of the main entry points to the school and so it is a constant presence in the school which I think is helpful too.

Editor's Rating
Pokémon Crystal was a great game in 2001: it's a delight to see it's still a great game in 2018. Fans of the original are encouraged to pick it up if they're looking to a good way to experience the pinnacle of the Johto adventures once more.
If you were young during the 2000's, chances are you've experienced your fair share of the Pokémon phenomenon. Pokémon was everywhere during that time, and even though they were released during the Game Boy's last years, the first two generations of Pokémon are unrivaled in popularity when it comes to classics on that platform. Pokémon breathes nostalgia for a large group of gamers, and the rerelease of the old games on Virtual Console was big deal. So big in fact, that they were even announced in a Nintendo Direct, much to the joy of many fans.
Pokémon Gold and Silver on Virtual Console even got special boxed copies that emulated the original Game Boy Color gameboxes.
Now it's Pokémon Crystal's time to get the same treatment.
The second generation is often remembered as the best one, and that's not just a nostalgic overestimation. The Pokémon games have always kept improving, but Pokémon Gold and Silver were the games that solidified the formula that Pokémon has been succesful with for years. Updated graphics in color, almost twice as many Pokémon to catch, compatibility with the older Pokémon games, two different regions to explore and many, many quality of life improvements made the second generation superior to the first in almost every regard. Crystal went a step further and introduced even more improvements. The Pokémon you encountered are more varied per location, there are animated sprites, players have the option of playing a female main character and the Battle Tower makes an appearance for the first time.
All these aspects have faithfully returned in the 3DS rerelease. Pokémon Crystal plays as good as ever and never feels old, despite being relased over fifteen years ago. It brings forth pleasant memories to pick up Chikorita, Totodile or Cyndaquil again, to have Professor Oak give you a Pokédex, or to get the Togepi egg. And it's as entertaining as ever to in collect every Pokémon on a given route, to headbutt trees to find Heracross, to win the Bug Catching Contest or encounter the Red Gyarados. For many, Pokémon Crystal will be a trip down memory lane that they'll enjoy whether they wind up completing the game or not.
Being playable on the 3DS and being a digital version of the game makes it a lot more accessible to play as well. The game takes up only very little space, and does not require you to carry the cartridge or worry about spent internal batteries (there's no losing your savegame this time!). The game even allows players to link with one another using the 3Ds's wireless connection to compensate for the inability to use the old link cables – a huge improvement by all means. Mystery Gift is functional too. What's more: players are able to connect Pokémon Crystal to the Pokebank App in order to send their freshly caught Pokémon over to copies of Pokémon Sun and Moon or Pokémon Ultra Sun and Moon. While this trade cannot be reversed, this allows players to give their Pokémon a new lease on life after their journey in Johto is over.
The possibilities this brings for players of the newest Pokémon games were thought out well in advance, and make the new virtual console versions of Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal worth picking up for this audience as well. Especially now that basically everything is allowed in official VGC play in 2018, competitive Pokémon players might want to expand their options by picking up other compatible Pokémon games. With only a 10 euro pricetag, the virtual console games can be a cheap and easy way to do that.
Other than compatibility with the newest games, Pokémon Crystal brings nothing new to the table. Everything is exactly the way it was back in 2001. Even so far as to the point where regular Virtual Console features such as save states are disabled for this game in order to stay faithful and to prevent players from abusing them (to easily catch Pokémon or otherwise trivialize the game). But truth be told, the game doesn't really need anything new in order to be a success. The fact that it is the same game that we used to play in our childhood is exactly what will make it successful, and why people we're so excited about its release in the first place. The cherry on top of it all is the physical release of the game. While it doesn't even come with a game card (a missed opportunity, though understandable), collector's will want to pick it up, as the box is pure nostalgia and absolutely beautiful.
With all that said, Pokémon Crystal on 3DS in no way changes the gaming landscape: it already did that in 2001. What is does do, however, is allow longtime fans and newcomers alike to experience again or for the first time the wonderful journeys that Johto provides in an affordable and easily accessible fashion.

"You can keep your plan and your doctor if you like what you have."
What he didn't say: "If your employer doesn't mind paying extra for you to have it." Another lie–and for you libs out there in la la land, that means a deliberate falsehood–not "anything that pisses me off!"–coming to fruition, albeit sooner than I bet Obama would have liked:
Fortune-Documents reveal AT&T, Verizon, others, thought about dropping employer-sponsored benefits
I'm SHOCKED! SHOCKED, I tell you! That the administration couldn't foresee that making the penalties cheaper than the coverage would push employers to drop coverage!?! The only quibble I have with the Fortune piece is their intro:
Internal documents recently reviewed by Fortune, originally requested by Congress, show what the bill's critics predicted, and what its champions dreaded: many large companies are examining a course that was heretofore unthinkable, dumping the health care coverage they provide to their workers in exchange for paying penalty fees to the government.
Of course it wasn't "unthinkable"…they planned it all along…they always knew it. Like the leftists said in meetings they subsequently disavowed: "This isn't a Trojan horse–it's right out there for everyone to see. This is the first step toward single payer." Now, they may not have wanted it to come to light this soon, but they knew it–you can bet your bottom dollar they knew it.
There's going to be a bloodbath over this healthcare bill before it's done–politically speaking, for you hyperventilating lefties out there–and I wouldn't want to have a (D) after my name when the reckonin' comes….

We were 100 yards from the entrance to the narrow, winding pass, copying the protocol we'd observed over the past thirty minutes as slack tide approached.

Tuesday, March 11th:
Morning: Dustin worked in the morning and then we ate lunch at Wendys. We headed out to Niagara On the Lake for wine tours and a chocolate factory tour. I somehow forgot our vouchers in the room but we still enjoyed ourselves. We got lost on the way there and Dustin ended up accidentally running into a strip club for directions. It was hilarious when he walked out laughing. I didn't believe him until we looked at the sign for "Private Eyes" and "Jugs and Wings" We thought it was a diner. We ended up going to a huge ice winery looking for the chocolate factory which resembled a castle. Once we finally got to our tour we couldn't believe we made it in time! The tour was really well put together at Chocolate FX. We got to see into the factory and learn about how chocolate is made. There were kids on the tour and they seemed to love it too. At the beginning and end you could try unlimited samples. This was a huge bonus as we stood and had a zillion chocolate covered coffee beans. With our voucher we got 2 chocolate covered strawberries and we purchased two ice wine truffles.
We explored the area and were impressed by the HUGE houses. Everywhere you looked were wineries and it was nice just driving around. Niagara On the Lake is only a thirty minute drive from Niagara Falls. We stopped in at Sunnybrook Farm Estate Winery. It was a quaint little winery with free flights for two that I found a coupon for. We got to try ice wine and lots of fruit wines. We ended up having to purchase the Peach Ice Wine. It was so incredible! It was gone before we headed home. Angel Inn is a historic inn and restaurant in Old Town. We weren't hungry but checked it out and walked around. There's a ghost tale surrounding the place and we were impressed by the 18th century floors. Walking around Old Town was fun but the shops were all alike and pricey.
Evening: Heading back to Niagara Falls, we went along the Niagara River and got to see beautiful homes and the Robert Moses Niagara Hydroelectric Power Station. Checking into the Embassy was easy. Dustin refused to pay $35 for valet parking and dropped me off. We parked at the Casino for only $5! Our room took our breathe away. On the 27th floor we had the most magnificent view of the falls. I can't remember a hotel room where we had a better view. Two chairs were facing the window and we sat for a bit and took it all in. The room was BIG! I loved the jacuzzi but we didn't need the living room with couch, dining table, and TV. We've learnt that we don't need a lot of space in a hotel room but this was worth the view. After we got ready, we went to the Manager's Reception. All Embassy Suites have an event in the evening that includes free drinks and snacks. Some are better than others. We each grabbed a drink and snacks. Dustin was over-joyed they offered hummus. We sat and enjoyed the view of the falls and then checked in to The Keg.
The Keg was our "fancy dinner." It was on the falls on the 9th floor of the hotel. The Groupon voucher had came with a $30 off coupon. We waited for a table by the window and weren't disappointed! Our meal was fantastic. I ordered the Chicken Supreme which was a chicken breast filled with mushrooms and a balsamic cream sauce. It came with a twice baked potato and vegetables. Dustin ordered a teriyaki steak. As a appetizer we had mushrooms with cream cheese and crab. After a great dinner we headed to the room to enjoy the view and eat our chocolates and drink the rest of our wine! I also enjoyed the whirlpool tub.
Wednesday, March 12th:
We were planning on going home this day. We woke up early and had breakfast at the hotel. A neat thing about the Embassy is that you get to sit in The Keg for breakfast. Had we had known that we would get a free meal with a view of the falls the next morning, we may have not spent as much on the meal before. BUT it was delicious and special. You couldn't see the falls as well because of the snow. It was snowing a lot! We headed over to the IMAX movie which was included. It was cool because Dustin had never been to an IMAX. I prayed for an opportunity to give away our extra two tickets and a nice Canadian family were paying for theirs. We were able to save them $40 for the two adult tickets. It was really great helping them out. They even had their daughter thank us. Attractions here are so expensive. I probably wouldn't do a lot without coupons and vouchers. The movie was fun. It told the story of the falls. It was called Niagara: Miracles, Myth and Magic. Our tickets included 1/2 off of the Daredevil Exhibit. This was one of my favorite things in the entire trip. You got to see footage of people going over the falls and see the contraptions that went over. It was creepy seeing barrels people died in…but it was very educational! We both jumped in a few and took photos. Afterward we used up our tokens at Captain Jack's Pirate Cove and then headed out. The weather was terrible. There were many accidents and we only made it to Buffalo. After calls from parents and prayer we decided to stay in a hotel. We stayed and worked and enjoyed free cookies until the blizzard settled and left the next morning. We later found out there were two huge car pile ups in Ohio! So glad to have gotten home safe.
Overall the trip was amazing. More than finding deals and planning trips, I enjoy actually taking them. There's something magical that happens when you're in a new place and experiencing new things together. As we live for Jesus, He's taken us places we would have never dreamt of. On our way home we just kept talking about how good God is all the time. He's given us this passion for challenging the status quo and living differently.

Power restored to Verndale
Minnesota Power experienced a power outage in the city of Verndale starting at about 1 p.m. Wednesday, affecting about 338 customers as well as the Verndale Public School.
Power was restored to the community at 6:45 p.m. according to Amy Rutledge, Minnesota Power's manager of corporate communications.
Minnesota Power workers were on site at the substation to the north of Hwy 10 and said, at about 2:30 p.m., that they were troubleshooting at the site, with no obvious problems seen at first surveying the station.
After further review, it appeared that workers needed to replace the equipment with a new transformer, according to Rutledge. Knowing that they would have to retrieve the new equipment, restoration took longer than normal, Rutledge said.
While the power was out, school remained in session with little change in pace, according to Superintendent Paul Brownlow.

Clashes between South Sudan's rebel factions in the strategic town of Kajo Keji, near the border with Uganda, have left at least 20 people dead in the past week, an opposition spokesman said on Monday.
Lam Paul Gabriel, a spokesman for the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-in-Opposition (SPLA-IO), which is loyal to former vice president Riek Machar, said the clashes erupted last Tuesday between SPLA-IO and National Salvation Front (NSF), which is loyal to former army logistics chief Thomas Cirillo.
The two opposition groups fighting the government of President Salva Kiir were previously stationed side by side in the area of Kajo Keji, but fighting erupted after NSF forces attacked SPLA-IO bases, killing one person and abducting some others, Gabriel said.
Fighting is still ongoing in several areas as both sides continue to battle for control of more territory, adding that the SPLA-IO have killed more than 20 NSF forces -- a claim not independently verified. "We don't consider NSF as genuine opposition but a threat to us," Gabriel said.
"I can't rule out the fact that it is pro-government... because if not, why would they continue to attack our positions in Kajo Keji?" Bismarck Duku, a Kajo-Keji resident, told Xinhua by phone from the northern Uganda region of Yumbe district, where he fled over the weekend, said most of the families who previously stayed at a camp for internally displaced persons have crossed to neighboring Uganda.
Santo Domic Chol, deputy spokesman of the South Sudan army, the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA), said the army has noticed unusual movement of people and fighting in the area, adding that the SPLA would fight back if the rebels attack its defensive positions.
South Sudan has been embroiled in more than three years of conflict that resulted in one of the fastest growing refugee crisis in the world.
A peace deal signed in August 2015 between the rival leaders under United Nations pressure led to the establishment of a transitional unity government in April, but was shattered by renewed fighting in July 2016. The UN estimates that at least 4 million people have been displaced internally and externally.

I went to a couple of shows last week at the House of Targ; unfortunately I neglected to pack a camera battery to the second one (their annual Lemmy tribute), so all you're getting is the Dark Gathering from Friday, featuring some industrial and goth-styled sounds from nTTx, The Marquis and local Low Noise Productions crew Final Fall. Here's Nick and Jason, working the electronics!
A very smokey Josh!
Less smokey josh!
More Nick and Jason!
Josh adjusts!
The end!
You might recall The Marquis playing guitar with Automelodi at Switched On Synths in August 2016. Here he is doing his solo thing!
It was a might smokey; his set was backed by a documentary on butoh, which was interesting in itself.
More Dillon!
nTTx finished the night off. It's the new solo project from Gord of Atomzero, backed here by a drummer and guitarist (there's also a synthesizer player, but they couldn't make it this night). Here's some guitar action with Norm!
Here's the drummer, Mike, awash in the glow from nTTx's own lighting rig.
More Norm!
Gripping action with Gord!
The whole lot!
More Gord!
Singalong action!
Mike hits!
Industrial action!
A fun night!

GM says Cadillac ad agency pitch was run fair and square
Q&A: Bierley explains how Interpublic's new agency Rogue won the prize
NEW YORK -- The move of Cadillac's creative account from Publicis Groupe's Fallon in Minneapolis to a new Interpublic Group of Cos. team dubbed Rogue, announced on Tuesday, has prompted numerous questions in the ad world.
How will a structure that's spread out across multiple cities work for GM? Why the name Rogue for the agency? And did Interpublic -- which has been expanding its presence on the automaker's roster -- have an inside track all along?
Advertising Age, an affiliate of Automotive News, spoke to General Motors to get some answers.
"All of the invited agencies demonstrated a high level of thinking and clearly worked very hard during the review process," said Bob Ferguson, vice president of Global Cadillac, in a statement. "We selected Rogue because its strategic insights, creative vision for Cadillac and strong luxury and automotive experience were the best match for our global growth plan."
Tuesday's decision came after a review that pitted incumbent Fallon against joint-agency teams from IPG and Publicis, plus Omnicom Group's DDB Chicago. The contenders were asked to create a campaign launching the new CTS sedan.
Though critics charged Interpublic agency Campbell Ewald had the inside track due to the shop's former work on Chevrolet, and the recent move of ex-Campbell Ewald executive Steven Majoros to the client side at Cadillac fanned those flames, Craig Bierley, Cadillac's advertising director, dismissed those criticisms in an interview Tuesday.
Advertising Age: Let's put our guns on the table. Did IPG have an advantage here? Was this business moving to them all along?
Bierley: I reject the premise of that … I was driving the process in this. It was truly transparent. It was truly open. We gave everyone the same opportunity. At the end of the day, we went with who did the best job and who we thought could deliver the best work. … What was rumored previously was that it was going to go to Campbell-Ewald. This is not just Campbell Ewald. This is the creative resources of Hill Holliday, the account leadership and digital of Campbell Ewald and global coordination with Lowe.
Advertising Age: So what did Rogue do to win this business?
Bierley: Everybody did a nice job. Everybody had consumer insights that kind of centered around the same area. We evaluated it based on the chemistry of the team and the creative. We think Lance Jensen is a tremendously talented creative guy. And the work stood apart. All the work was good. It was just a matter of assessing which one was best. At the end of the day, it's about who we think can get us where we want to go. We have really big global aspirations to grow this brand into an iconic luxury brand. We think they're the best team equipped to get us there.
Advertising Age: How did the losing agencies react?
Bierley: My boss [Mr. Ferguson] made those calls. I'm sure everyone was disappointed. …They brought it. They all brought a level of intensity and dedication to try to get this business. It makes it hard to say, "One guy won and the other three didn't."
Advertising Age: Does Campbell Ewald get any piece of the creative?
Bierley: Campbell Ewald has some of the digital creative. But the creative lead is Lance Jensen based in Hill Holliday in Boston. A significant amount of the resources is aligned with him.
Advertising Age: With three cooks in the kitchen, does this have the potential to turn into a chaotic mishigas?
Bierley: We're confident we can work through the "mishigas."…We're confident in our ability to execute it. We spent a considerable amount of time understanding how this would work, how this organization would be structured. We think there's a great leadership team that can make this work.
Advertising Age: If Lance is leading creative, who'll head up business on the account side?
Bierley: They have not made an announcement on that yet.
Advertising Age: When will we see the first work from Rogue?
Bierley: This fall. There's two principal pieces of creative we'll produce this fall. One is a spot for the XTS. A new XTS spot. Most importantly, an all-new launch campaign for the all-new CTS … All the work we evaluated was in the context of, 'How would you launch CTS?'
Advertising Age: What do you think of this name, Rogue?
Bierley: That was their choice. We didn't give them any feedback on it. It's a perfectly fine name. It speaks to the challenger character that we think we need from an agency. We need to be aggressive … We need to trigger a reappraisal and make people think differently about Cadillac. The team at Rogue embodies that spirit.
Advertising Age: Will Rogue launch a global creative campaign for Cadillac?
Bierley: Not imminently. But that's something we have to work our way through.

No, this post is not about college football but believe me, this house is keenly aware it is football season. Today Mason is turning 12. It has been a blessing to raise him and watch him grow into the wonderful young man he is becoming. I love this kid so much, here are 12 reasons why:
1. Mason has a great quirky sense of humor, just like his mom, so we laugh together often.
2. I've watched him be a hard worker this summer. He mowed our neighbor's yard to earn his own money and has done a great job. He is even mowing our yard for dad!
3. He is becoming more patient with his brother and is being a good example to him
4. He is so loving to his baby sister. She is only a few weeks old and I can tell she knows his voice and likes to hear it when he is home.
5. He is trying new things like playing guitar and beginner band percussion.
6. This boy is a great friend. We have new neighbors and he couldn't wait to invite the kids over to swim and ask their son (who is 10) to go bike riding with him. He loves to make people feel welcome.
7. Football is his favorite sport. He doesn't let his smaller build stop him. He plays hard and loves every minute of it!
8. Mason continues to be a good student and work hard. He puts his studies first.
9. Maturity is blossoming in him. I can see a bit of the man he is becoming and it is wonderful.
10. New foods are not always fun for him but he is boldly trying new things. He even decided he likes fried okra!
11. The little girls next door (ages 5 and 7) came over to see if Mason could play. He didn't make a face and tell me he didn't play with little girls. He went outside and played so sweetly with them for a few minutes before dinner.
12. He loves the Lord and is learning to be His feet. He invited several neighborhood kids he has been playing with to go to church on Wednesday night. When I asked him if they had fun he said yes but he was most excited that they would be learning about Jesus.
Every year with Mason is a new adventure. He takes us to the next phase of parenting and teaches us so much in the process while we try to teach him. We are truly blessed to be his parents. We love you, Mason. Happy Birthday!
