We are back from the little slice of heaven located in southern Colorado, and I would have to say it was the best trip yet. We went with just Daddy’s parents, so it was a very relaxing trip. Monkey has missed Monga and Papa and asks about them almost daily, so it gave […]
It has taken a while for us to get back to our usual routine after that bout with sickness, but I feel like we are almost there. Let me also add, that I have never been the perfect housekeeper. I love to enjoy my house and I want my family to do the […]
We had our big ultrasound yesterday and as it turns out, as always, God is challenging me… with a boy. I am so nervous because I still don’t have Monkey figured out, and we are both made of sugar and spice. I am praying the addition of snails and tails does not make for […]
Monkey competed her swim lessons last week and we left with a certificate in hand and a feeling of accomplishment. Granted, all the kids in her class passed, but I can still be a proud mama, right?
I didn’t really see a huge improvement in her swimming with this class, but she did learn the different […]
We had a baby shower for one of the MOPS mommies that sat at our table last year. We have all stayed friends and when I do get out of the house without kiddos, it is usually with one of them.
We had to wake Monkey up from a much needed nap to go to […]
For Fathers Day, we had a full day. Daddy worked all morning with the neighbor to install our fence so Bluto could run around in our yard (and not everyone elses). He took a break to go to Monkeys swim lesson and then it was off to the Parker Country Festival. This […]
My sister-in-law called yesterday and at the last minute she found out she had the day off. We loaded up the kids and headed out to Pirates Cove. I had never been there before, and I just have to say this place is FANTASTIC. When we arrived it was busy, but we […]
I have been volunteering in the Childrens Ministry at The Rock and although it is hard to get going in the mornings, once I am there God gives me the burst of energy I need to scurry around the classroom. It has been a while since I worked with preschoolers (besides my own). […]
My sweet sister in law has been through hell. A few short years ago, she was living what appeared to be the “American Dream” including two beautiful children, a husband who worked hard and a house they could call theirs. Their focus was God and He was pleased. However, all of that fell […]
I was lucky enough to spend some time photographing my sister and her boyfriend yesterday. They are celebrating their third anniversary this year, and are one of the sweetest couples I know. I just love the look of desperate adoration in the above picture.
I took about 500 pics, and had a little over […]
