Another season has come to an end. As of Tuesday evening, we will be finished with games and practices and life in the McGlinchey house will slow down significantly just in time for summer.

Snake!

admin | April 19, 2008

Brenden found a snake in the wood pile last night, and in true Brenden fashion, recruited all the kids to get their bug-catching stuff so that he could catch it.  They then went through the process of researching and identifying it and found that it was a harmless Brown Snake.  It eats only worms, snails [...]

Snow Day

admin | January 17, 2008

What a day we have had.  Snow started falling around 10:30 last night and continued on through 6ish this morning.  Although the rain started at that point, we had enough snow to enjoy before the rain melted it all.  I love telling my “California kids” that it has snowed.  The excitement on their faces reminds [...]
