WFMW: Date Night on the Cheap
Wednesday April 7, 2010Date Night is important, but unfortunately, there’s no money in the budget right now for babysitters. So we had to get creative and improvise. The way we currently achieve “Date Night” is by designating one night of the week as Date Night. It’s currently Tuesdays. We told our kids (ages 6, 4 and 2) that [...]

Thursday March 18, 2010I got to join Wendy’s class on a field trip today. They have been studying money, learning about coins, their values and whose picture is on them. So the fieldtrip involved going down to DC and seeing the monuments for various presidents. I was so glad to be able to join the kids, thanks to [...]

Sunday March 14, 2010A friend forwarded me an article in MomLife Today (a magazine put out by Family Life) entitled “Three Cheers for the Meanest Mom!” The article relates a story about a mom who sold her teenager’s car after she found alcohol in it. The author, Barbara Rainey, encourages moms to make the tough decisions that [...]

Saturday February 20, 2010Over the blizzard break, I had some time on my hands, so I decided to make the latest recipe for my bread making club. The “formula” was for Cinnamon Raisin Walnut Bread and was surprisingly easy and delish. One of the nice things about the recipe is that it doesn’t call for a bunch of [...]

Saturday January 30, 2010Another snowfall has hit our area, so we are hunkered down in front of the fire. Some of us are playing “Trouble”… some of us are causing it … and some of us are blogging about it :) We’ve been working on some Valentine’s decorations, so I thought I would try and be arty and [...]

Wednesday January 27, 2010Lately, it seems, whenever and whatever I make for dinner gets panned by my kids. It can be disheartening to work on a meal only to have it snubbed by the 6 and under crowd. So, when last night’s dinner got rave reviews, I thought it was blog-worthy. This is a recipe from Mike’s mom. [...]

Sunday January 24, 2010I’ve mentioned before, that we typically go to a small cabin out near Front Royal over New Years with friends from college. The good thing about the cabin was it was free, not too far away, and “rustic” enough that it was okay for everyone to bring their 17 dogs (I exaggerate, a tad). The [...]

Thursday January 14, 2010You may recall, about two weeks ago, Adam won a trip to the ER, courtesy of his busted head. In addition to stitches, he apparently came home with germs. ER on Saturday, then happy and healthy all day Saturday and Sunday … until around dinner time. Just as I was trying to coax some peas [...]

Monday December 28, 2009We had a super duper Christmas. And now that 2010 is bearing down on us, I figured I better get these memories chronicled. Prepare for an overload of photos.
