Bibs By Boggs






At the Boggs' house, we have some serious spills happening on a regular basis. From meal time to paint projects to brewing hour, splashing is happening. Drooling, dripping, swishing, spilling, slipping, dipping, spraying. Our clothes seemed to be getting a bit worn and splotchy. I caught myself wiping my hands on the sides of my pants while I was in the kitchen. I made so bibs to start with and then an apron for meal time prep. That is how it started. I've had a blast making some seriously cute bibs. A friend asked if I could create an apron for her little one for Christmas and I couldn't believe how quickly it came together! My grandmother sewed a lot and I have always wanted sew and now it is just coming to me every day! 

If you and your clan or someone you know has a drooler, spiller, splasher, or dripper, then these bibs will make the perfect gift. If you would like to order a bib or two or three or an apron -- send me a message here in the comments or email me at elishaboggs@yahoo.com. I'd love to take your order!!! 

I'm working on an Etsy Shop BibsByBoggs. It is up and running but needs some help!!!

The Cattle Are Lowing

We’d waited since February for her to calf. By November 20th, all eyes stayed on mama cow - Trahlyta. Her due date was close and we were more than ready. The waiting wrung our patience.  October was wet and boggy and Trahlyta looked sick. We discovered rotting flesh in her foot. Foot rot set in from standing on soggy ground day after day. George and the children tended to her around the clock as they cleaned out oozing infected sore and cared for her hooves. We’ve had her since she was a few days old. The children raised her. She’s part of our family. And, she’s our first cow to calf. She held the keys to our own dairy supply and to our tender hearts as we watched her stay under the weather. All we could do was wait and make sure she stayed healthy and it wasn’t as easy as we expected. But now, her hooves were healthy and her belly was swollen and we were waiting.  On the morning of the 24th, I rushed to the window at the first day light. Down by the creek, I saw Trahlyta and a red cal

Love Them. Feed Them. Talk To Them. The Rest Is Icing On The Cake.

We've been homeschooling for ten years. At LEAST once a week I think that homeschooling is the worst possible thing on the planet. I look at my kids and think, "I've got nothin'!" It is scary. It is hard. How many hundreds of times have I called my extremely patient husband and yelled, literally screamed into the phone, "I CAN'T DO THIS!" There was a day, in the middle of a lesson that wasn't going well at all, that I walked out the back door, walked to the pool, jumped in fully clothed and yelled as loud as I could under the water. I got back out of the pool, calmly walked inside, changed my clothes and continued with the day feeling much relieved. George, my husband and biggest cheerleader - also a major part of our homeschooling life, is diligent to walk me off the cliff of homeschool despair. When I feel like I am failing our children, he offers me this morsel... Before I give you his advice, I would like to mention at this poi

Coffee Shop

A little water. A little dirt. Buckets of imagination. They opened at 9:00 a.m. and didn't close the doors until the mud covered dishes were recollected and soaking at 5 p.m. The Best Food Whale Coffee.  Amelia made special food for the whales to eat. Their play was seasoned with the things we've read this week like the rules (The Code of Hammurabi) for the shop. School met them during their serving breaks. William loved playing along side them. He pulled weeds from the monkey grass for an hour straight and then played at their feet. He had a lot to say as well. The rain started in the late afternoon and George let them make us "real" coffee in the kitchen. A bike ride through puddles. Friday night pizza turned into Friday night spaghetti (I was out of flour due to "Waffle Friday" breakfast).  Whale Food Friday night movie -- "In Cold Blood" -- BBC's reptile documentary. Brilliant. Music turns
