Semi-Wordless Wednesday

You know how cats love to curl up in the tightest of space?? Our Lilly is no different....so tonight, we'll be having CAT for dinner.

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

When I told Steve that I loved the picture that Delilah drew of he and I, he wanted to know which one was me...

Semi-Wordless Wednesday

I took this looking out my bedroom window this morning.  This part of Italy is very foggy--something that I didn't know before I moved here.  I can't help buy think of Heathcliff walking across the moors from Wuthering Heights. 

Wordless Wednesday

I frequently think about how we are all forever changed by the opportunity we've been given to live and travel overseas.  I am so thankful.

I'd love your vote :)

Wordless Wednesday

This photo speaks volumes about our trip to Paris.... and I simply couldn't resist the ladies with the boobies behind them.  When you say, "Here kids, sit in front of these saggy boobie ladies and let me take a picture", this is what you get from my youngest three...


Please take a moment to vote for Via Fontanelle for Top Mommy Blog.  I'd really appreciate your vote!

Hoped I wouldn't have to use this again...

When in Rome--Eating in Italy (SemiWordless Wednesday)...

As many of you may have read, we had the pleasure of having some family in town to visit for a couple of weeks.  We headed to Rome for a quick five days which were filled (literally filled to the point of bursting sometimes) with great sights and great food! Here's a few of my favorites...

Here's a short little video of the correct way to eat spaghetti (when you're 3, of coarse)

A sign from a restaurant bathroom in Rome (Thankfully, it wasn't a squatty potty, although we did run into a couple of those along the way...)

I sure would appreciate your vote!  All it takes is one click a day on the picture of the happy momma below!  Thanks!

Hard to be Wordless When it's This Beautiful Wednesday

We've spent the past few days in Rome and I can't wait to tell you all about it! But it's Wednesday, so I'll just show you my favorite picture.

Hi There!

I wanted to take this moment on a Wordless Wednesday to beg for followers.  

Here's the thing...I've got a couple of pretty snazzy give-a-ways coming up and only followers will be eligible. 

 It doesn't matter who you are. 

There are no rules for being a follower.  Anyone can be a follower.  

And ANY follower can win....doesn't matter if you know me or not...(random number generator will pick the lucky, lucky, LUCKY winner).  

BUT, you have to be a follower to win...

Don't know how?  Look over on the right hand side for the white "Bloglovin'" button.  

It looks like this.

Click it.

Follow the steps.

(did you do it?)

Yes?  Good job!

OR

Look for something that looks like this...

 

Type your name in the box where it says "email address".  Be sure to click submit... This is the easiest way...especially if you don't follow a lot of blogs...

And finally, you can look for this....

It's ok to be a follower in this case...and I've given you THREE ways to win prizes!!! WOOHOO!!

Now here's a picture for our NotSo Wordless Wednesday!

This is Big Lew...he's the "one giant Newfoundland" in our story...

The Difference Between Girls & Boys

This is post number two for today, but I just love how these pictures turned out and they do such a great job of representing the personalities of my four very different children. You can also find them, and photos like them on my Instagram!  If you'd like to view my other post from today, click HERE!

Tory and Delilah's boots outside our front door--Delilah's are princess and Tory's are mine that she "borrowed" about 3 years ago...

Trey and Jackson's shoes outside the front door (Look how disgusting Trey's socks are), and yes, that's a hole in Jackson's shoe.  He literally wore a hole in the side of them and one in the sole during the 8 days we were in Paris!

I had to laugh...Perfect!

Wordless Wednesday--an idea I am stealing from my friend Edith, that allows me the opportunity to share random photos that don't really require an explanation. Enjoy!
