I just added Josh Wilson’s “Savior Please” to my iPod running mix. I love it!! It’s my new favorite song and I can’t get it out of my head. I thought it would be tough to keep my stride because the song starts slow, but something about it just works! The lyrics take on a … Read more
The Sacred Sink
Baseball and Belly
Happy Monday! We had a crazy, busy weekend but it was wonderful. My dad and I took Gabriel to the batting cages over the weekend to practice. This is a new world for me and I have to remember FUN is the objective. While we were there, I was talking to another mom who said … Read more
Snow Day!
Yesterday was quite an adventure. We got hit with a big snow storm and major accumulation. Aside from my wild ride home from work (thank you Lord for protection on the roads), we did have a fun afternoon. The boys worked on a fort, tossed snowballs, and mom and dad shoveled (ohhhh my aching back)! … Read more
Pick Me
Len showed me this cool video today and I had to share! I actually thought it was real….for a few seconds. These tricks are sweet!:) Pretty cool technology. I was excited to see the Brown County Courthouse in the background in one clip. I used to work directly across the street at the WBAY building … Read more
Leaving a Legacy
I ran across a neat story about a dad’s great idea! He talks about his son’s 13th birthday and a way to celebrate his “passage into manhood” . Here is a quick preview: “I’m inviting five men to join him at a special birthday dinner at a restaurant. During our meal, each man will have … Read more
Ant Update
A few months ago I posted that we were getting Gabriel an ant farm for Christmas. I never would’ve imagined being psyched about insects but I have to admit, they are pretty cool! At least when they are contained and not freely roaming my home.:) Gabe was giddy to get his ants but they are … Read more

It’s a fantastic site with tips, coupons, and samples that add up to….zero!:) All good items at no charge. Thanks Grammie, good one!:) The other big … Read more

How sweet is this?! It’s a 3-d baby ticker. For pregnant mommies, you can add this to your e-mails, or blog. Just type in your due date and a few other details and voila! You have a floating, growing baby to remind you of your little miracle! The entire website is very cute and interactive. … Read more
Thanks, Family Fun!
Our Family Fun magazine arrived in the mail this week and was loaded with great ideas (as usual). I have to admit that I normally just enjoy the artistic ability of other moms and their kids but don’t attempt the crafts unless I have all the supplies handy (which isn’t often). I always seem to … Read more
Weekend Relaxation
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
