Here is our dog that I vowed would never be allowed on the furniture. I think I need to work on strengthening my backbone. 🙂 This is actually a rare occurrence (really)! She moved before I snapped this picture but she had been laying on Garrett’s shoulder. So cute! It was his turn for the … Read more
New Year, New Look!
I am so excited to show you my new blog design. Yippee! I hope you like it. A big thanks to Shera at Sweet and Simple designs for her patience with me.:) I never knew it could so hard to choose colors, designs, etc. Good thing I’m already married, I would be a mess in … Read more
Snow and Sales
Brrrr. It FREEZING here in Ohio! There is no way we are venturing out in this sub zero arctic air, but we are stocking up on the cold weather duds. After realizing last week that we don’t have adequate winter-wear I’ve been looking online for some good deals. The thing is, we DID have all … Read more
Precious Life (The Tim Tebow Story)
March for Life 2009 is about a week away. It takes place in Washington DC on January 22. I wish I could go! Still, please pray for the thousands who will travel, pray, and defend those who cannot speak for themselves, the unborn. A great story I ran across is that of Heisman trophy winner … Read more
Saturday Snow
I am so grateful I don’t have to commute today! We got quite a bit of snow and more to come. Gabriel is at a birthday party but other than that we are going to stay inside and hibernate. I need to get the boys better gloves, the stretchy cotton cheap ones are the worst. … Read more
On Time in 2009!
Time for my annual plug of “Momagenda”. I’ve been using this planner for 2 years (going on 3) and it’s helped me tremendously. I’ve always been organizationally-challenged but I’m happy to say this has helped me reform!:) I’m sure I’ll always struggle with paper piles and forgetting to actually LOOK at it sometimes, but it … Read more
Western Room
Grant’s room is coming along. For Christmas we gave him western themed bedding and decor. I was going to order a John Wayne poster online and frame it, but then Gina at Laus Deo came up with a great idea. I knew we would be riding horses in Georgia so she recommended taking a picture … Read more
The Cowboy Monkey
My boys are going to be so excited when they see this! They love cowboys and they love monkeys….and now to see them COMBINED?! Wow, it just might be the best moment ever. I think this is kind of old but I never saw the vid before. It’s Whiplash, the Cowboy Monkey! So funny.
Back to the Routine!
Well, this is our first official day back in the groove. School, work, naps, and calendars. So far, so good! Although we are all used to staying up a little later than usual so I have a feeling we’ll collectively hit a wall by mid-week. It was so nice to have a breather and really … Read more
Happy 2009!
Happy New Year!! We just got back from a big show at the Carlisle Inn in Sugarcreek. I was honored to host a show featuring Mark Shultz! We also heard a great Southern Gospel trio (Mencer, White, and Cheney) and we had a wonderful time. What a way to ring in the new year, with … Read more
