Welcome to Prarie Pi. This blog exists to journal and document the memories that our family experiences. Pi is "an amount of type that has been jumbled or thrown together at random." We hope to assemble in words and pictures the daily thoughts and activities that happen in our household. We do this to help those that are distant from us get a glimpse into our days so that the miles that separate us won't keep us apart.

The Newest Pet


Moe, Buttercup, and Nacho are taking their newest pet for a little walk.


They found this little guy yesterday....


....and they have named him C.A.N.

Today, C.A.N. attended predator training classes.
He is providing lots of fun.....we now need to figure out exactly what he likes to eat so he can continue to provide more fun!
Any suggestions are welcome!!
Buttercup just received this package in the mail!!  It is something white and beautiful and will be worn this week-end!!
We will show more pictures soon!

Have a great Thursday!

Happy May Day!

We made....

....and set off to....

...deliver a few May baskets today.
We ran away....


.....before the neighbors could catch us.

Nacho dropped one, but made a good call and said that he was giving that one to the dog, Hogan, who lives there!
Good thinking, Nacho!

Alphabet Parade

Nacho started out the school year in September by learning one letter a week.  We just recently finished up the letter "Z" and so I gave an assignment to Nacho and Moe to make a parade of animals.  All animal in the parade had to start with a letter of the alphabet for 26 animals total. 
They did it!


Moe had to be very creative and use the computer to help him come up with animals for some of the more difficult letters. He put a gorilla in the parade for the letter “U.” I asked him why and he said that is was an “Upland Gorilla.” Both boys had fun with the activity. I told Nacho that we would be going to the zoo now that we have been through all the letters. I am waiting for the next warm day!

Spring Tradition

Pick a dandy-lion.....

....make a wish....

....and let those wishes be carried off to the world with the spring breezes.
Repeat as necessary.
