Who doesn't LOVE picnics?? I am going to join the fun Picnic over at ABC and 123, won't you join us too?This is our family...
I am Branflakes, a fun loving and crafty mama. I am a stay at home mom and LOVE spending time with my kiddos and teaching them as much as I can. I also NEED me time, so I take it because without it I'm not the best mom I could be. Hugging me is my sweet, cuddly, 4 1/2 year old, talk to anybody, mama's boy, Aidman. He is ALL boy! He loves dirt, bikes, bugs, army guys, and wants to be a police "oppicer" when he grows up.
Here is Daddy. He just started his own business in February in the computer field and I could not be prouder of him. He is a great provider and supports me in any crazy off the wall thing I do with the kids (you have seen the wall haven't you?).

Snuggling with her daddy is 3 year old Prissy Lyssy. She is prissy, but she's also so much fun and LOVES to tag along with her big brother. She is IN the terrible 3's (we didn't have terrible 2's, it hit both my kids at 3), and is giving mama a run for her money. She is very shy around people she doesn't know or hasn't seen in a while, and that's about the only time she clings to mama, other than then she is little miss independent.
Adventures of a Flake is about our family. It has alittle of everything on it: our playdates, our ABC learning, mama's time away from the kids, our fun outings, our cute crafts, and more. I know Adventures of a Flake seems like such a STRANGE name for a blog and makes me sound flighty. And while I am flighty sometimes, I'm not usually. I thought it was funny and tied in cute with my nickname Branflakes. If I could change it I would, but it just seems like too much of a hassle at this point.
The kiddos and I LOVE craft projects, usually the open ended ones or the ones they come up with on their own are our favorites. We LOVE to get out of the house and go hang out with friends, we LOVE our playgroup. We love going to church (especially when mama's the preschool teacher) and small group. We love being silly, laughing, and just being together.
We also LOVE picnics!! Here in Florida, our favorite time to picnic is October through April (because June- Sept. it can be around 100 degrees outside and unless I'm in the water, I really don't wanna be in the hot and humid weather). But the summer months are GREAT for beach picnics, and we go there often. We have Great wooden picnic table in our backyard that we have picnics on several times a week during our "fall/winter" season.
Join me over at ABC and 123's Prize Picnic for some table talk so we can all get to know each other alittle better! And while you're here, feel free to snoop around my blog, you just might find some fun things!
