On Tuesday, Adam turned 4. When I had asked him who he wanted to invite to the party, he promptly named four boys in his preschool class. I pressed to see if he wanted anyone else, maybe some of the girls, but he said, “No, no girls. They’re not my friends. Just the boys.”...
We had a great mini-vacay over the New Years Weekend with a trip down to the Outer Banks. We went with some friends and had a great time hanging out, enjoying unseasonably warm weather and ringing in the new year. Here’s a few photo highlights. Sunset at the beach Running at the beach Enjoying...
I am way too late in posting this (geez, where’d the year go?) but nonetheless I wanted to officially document on the blog what a great Christmas we had. I love everything about Christmas. It’s more than just presents, it’s the birth of Jesus. It’s also great family time. We do Christmas eve with...
Halloween was indeed a happy and sugar-filled affair. It started with Adam’s preschool celebration. Can you guess what he is? If you guessed the cutest little Ewok, this side of Endor, you would be correct! And this was probably the easiest “homemade” costume I have ever done. We reused a bear costume and I...

We recently purchased an iPad, in anticipation of our cross-country travels, and we have been having fun exploring different apps. After our return, the husband and I felt the house was a wreck and a deep clean was in order — one that required participation from ALL members of the family. Often times, getting...
One of the great things about sending my kids to Vacation Bible School, is they come home learning and loving new Christian tunes. I have especially loved catching my three year old sing to himself. The favorite song they acquired from VBS this year is called “Rise & Sing”, and it’s a catchy little...
