Well, I should be busy editing pictures of the 2 soccer teams & players I did this past week among about 2,000 pics I took at a soccer tournament last weekend. But….my computer decided she needed some time off. (she, he, whatever.) 🙂 Anyway, I’m praying that it is the Logic Board like the initially… Read More »
I was going to write a nice post about my younger child, but it has been literally a NON-stop day! So I’ll just let the pictures do the talking for now. Can’t believe he’s FIVE!
We woke up to beautiful blankets of snow today. See more here.
We went last week to Texas. It was a very quick trip to see Grandmother and try to get all my stuff from the house. We brought a ton of stuff back. Nothing of great value and really when you look at it all, it looks like a bunch of junk! But one man’s junk… Read More »
The title is written with such sadness, but at the same time I feel a comforting warmth over me… My Grandmother has been in and out of the hospital for a couple months now. Every time I talk to her lately she makes it sound like she knows the end is near. You know you… Read More »
I found a very cool site, which caused me to have a blast from the past because while looking at this awesome new site, I saw this: Anyway, when I saw this, my mind went retro and I just started thinking of all the things that I used to love to play with. Although some… Read More »

Looked fun so, here’s my list… Started your own blog Slept under the stars Played in a band Visited Hawaii Given more than you can afford to charity Been to Disneyland/World Climbed a mountain Held a praying… Read More »
I just can’t seem to get in a groove of blogging. Well…if I think about it, I really can’t get into a groove of anything! If that makes any sense! Anyway, today I’m gearing up for NINE 10 and 11 year old boys to come over and celebrate with Drew. We did it last year… Read More »
Today Drew is ELEVEN. I had to type that out to help it sink in. I just can’t believe it’s been that long. With this age comes a lot of change. He’ll transition into middle school in August for 6th grade. He’ll move up to boy scouts in May. In fact, he’s not able to… Read More »
Well I had written Drew’s birthday entry a couple days ago and you’ll see it in a few hours, but since I’m up and I was reading about Harper and Brayden and I couldn’t help but think back to this time 11 years ago. Wow! I get tears in my eyes thinking about it. No… Read More »
Yesterday a good part of the day was spent doing web work on my business site with Rob while watching Animal Planet. I think it was a Dogs 101 marathon. One of the shows that was on was about presidential dogs, which I found to be very interesting. It was probably inspired by the fact… Read More »
Last Sunday we attended the contemporary service at church, my favorite! We also visited a Sunday school class, Footsteps. We had started visiting classes last year, but never got to finish trying some others out. I’ll admit it’s been awhile since we’ve been to church and it seems that when we go awhile without going,… Read More »
I have a personal prayer request. I’m not one to ask for help normally, but when times are tough and you feel you have no where else to turn God is the answer. I need you to ask God to help Rob and me with our financial future. We continually hear about the devastation of… Read More »
It seems that nearly every blog I read today shows people having fun in the snow. Well, either that or they’re sick of it! The thought of snow here…well in 70 degree weather, I don’t see it happening anytime soon. And if it does it surely won’t stick because the ground is so warm. Last… Read More »
Every Christmas Eve, I let the boys open one present each. Drew always knows what it is, but never says it out loud until he opens it. It’s always a Christmas-y set of pajamas. This year these pajamas proved to be quite a conundrum for me. I was happy to find Alex’s PJs early in… Read More »
After making the Gingerbread house, I had the boys go out in the yard and look for some pine cones. I painted them. Then pulled out some glittery thingys and some glue. The boys decorated them and we placed them on the table wear the food was going to be on Christmas Day. Making fancy… Read More »
The few days that Drew had off before Christmas we enjoyed some of our traditions that we try to make time for every year. One of which is making a Gingerbread House. Last year, we didn’t get to it. This year I stepped back and tried to let the kids do as much as possible.… Read More »
