Tonight we leave for family camp and we’ll be gone until Thursday. It should be a great time! Now, if only we can fit everything into our Civic. Not even kidding. Kevin and I are taking our bikes and will use them to take us the 5.5 miles down to Freddie’s Freeze. It’s ok to […]
The One with the Question of the Day
I’ve been a lazy bones this week. Ok, maybe I shouldn’t go quite that far. Maybe I’ve just been taking it easy. For once. Kevin’s getting up at 5am now so he can come home earlier. Which is awesome. Except there is NO reason for me to be up at 5am. 6am was early enough. […]
The One with the Letter to My Readers
Dear Readers,I haven’t posted in a week.That’s a long time.I apologize.But I’m sure you didn’t mind looking at beautiful pictures for a week.I know I didn’t.

The One with a Best Friend’s Wedding
Brittney & Nick just got their professional wedding pictures and they are gorgeous. Britt and I enjoyed some online conversation this morning while oooh-ing and ahhh-ing over all of them. Some great moments were captured and she said I should post some of my favorites. So here they are for all to enjoy! :::bridesmaids:: jennie, […]
The One with the Softball Game
Much of our back yard is coated in mulberries. They are delicious. And messy. Very messy. My flips flops are stained. So are my ankles. And no wonder all the bird poop is purple. Now if only the tree branches were lower to the ground. Apparently my husband knows the trick to collecting this elusive […]
The One in the Jean Skirt
Kevin wanted to go see Transformers. So did I. But we don’t like spending obscene amounts of money in theaters. I did some research. Found a fairly inexpensive theater 45 min. away. Remembered I had a gift card for that branch of theaters. A two year old gift card was finally coming in handy. You […]
The One with an Overheated Fish
Biking to the library that is just 3 miles from our home, signing up for library cards, chatting with the librarian, and getting familiar with the quaint book and resource emporium was the best date ever. Ok, maybe not ever, but it was free and it was really super fun. We looked through the movies […]
The One with [DQ] Blizzards
fresh cilantro is the bomb. breezes blowing through the house is appreciated. great times had at Chris & Katie Thomas’s wedding. having the wedding pictures deleted from my camera is not a good thing. (Dad E., can anything be done?!) why am I watching the US Open? like father like daughter I guess. rearranged basement […]
The One with the Strawberries
Listening to God’s prodding reaps positive results. Funny how that works. It’s like St. Ignatius of Loyola said, “Sin is unwillingness to trust that what God wants is our deepest happiness.” David Benner adds to that, “Until I am absolutely convinced of this I will do everything I can to keep my hands on the […]
The One with (another) Wedding
It’s been a great couple of days. Not only has the weather been ideal for my preferences, but we’ve enjoyed a wedding, a children’s led worship service, a fantastic time with the youth group, and more. Friday evening, we traveling 20 minutes down the road to Clair & Caitlin’s wedding rehearsal. It was kind of […]
