My vacuum cleaner just died, and I seem to need another one every 2-3 years. We have no pets, but two boys, so it gets good use. I have heard so much about Dyson that I want to bit the bullet and spend more to get a machine that just might last us longer...Any one stand out from the others? Want to spend under 500 if possible..thanks.

who eats a family meal at the table together?
russiantwins replied to windmillmarie's topic in The Chat Board
we eat every breakfast and dinner together at the table as a family. One night a week is movie night where we are at the table, but eat pizza and watch a family film together while eating. Lunch is at the table with the kids and me, as hubby is working. We try to be committed to this, as it fosters some great conversations about our day. -
homemade chicken pot pie with a salad and loaf of italian bread (store bought) and some jello with strawberries, blueberries and bananas in it ( son made this) for dessert.

If you are going out of town for Christmas...
russiantwins replied to pageta's topic in The Chat Board
we are going out of town and are not decorating. We did put out our advent calendar and also are doing our advent book reading, but no tree, no lights, no decorations. That was part of our vote with the kids as to whether to go out of town or not. They will decorate the tree once we get to Grandma's house and we will do our baking there. -
mine is on paper, near my calendar which sits by my computer on my desk.

Letting your spouse teach some?
russiantwins replied to mom2agang's topic in General Education Discussion Board
My husband teaches History and Bible at night when he comes home from work, after supper. He is a history major and is a chaplain, so it fits like a glove. I just give him the curriculum and let him teach how he wants to. I always ask if he needs me to buy anything or prepare anything,but other than that, I leave him be. He doesn't need my advice, and if he did, he'd ask. It lessens my load and helps him to be a part of our homeschooling world. It has brought the kids closer to him, and they look forward to that time with him each evening. -
If you haven't started decorating for Christmas,
russiantwins replied to ApronMama's topic in The Chat Board
We are not decorating at all this year, since we are going to Grandma and Grandpa's house this year for Christmas. It feels very strange with nothing out at all. We are doing our advent reading though. -
I'd love tickets to Austrailia to visit my sister and baby, a new Sony DSLR camera with lenses, a nice pair of cowboy boots, an ipad, mac laptop, dehydrator, bookcases, and a RAM pick up truck..hey, we are dreaming right?

twin birthday party questions
russiantwins replied to HappyLady's topic in General Education Discussion Board
My twins are 7, and they do appreciate their own card, gift card. if the gift is pricey, then they share it. They have different interests, so it is pretty easy to get something cheaper for each one. -

Sandy updates ... How are you faring?
russiantwins replied to Cindy in C-ville's topic in General Education Discussion Board
We are in central New Jersey, and it was a horrific night. OUr gutter partially came off and banged against the house all night. Shingles are gone on the roof and the wood is exposed. We can see downed trees, and police lights that are blocking roads. We lost power but it is on right now, so we are quickly making coffee, taking showers, and charging our phones. we plan to go outside to walk around the house and see the damage in the light without the wind. Haven't seen any of our neighbors yet. We had a tough night sleeping with all that wind. wow. -
