If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know that I’m a Colorado Girl. In college I married a Texas Boy. Of all the advice I received about marriage, no one mentioned that if you marry a Texan, you will live in Texas.
So now it has been six years of living in Texas. There [...]
Every other Thursday, we pick up our veggies. The box of farm fresh produce smells so good. So. Good.
We’ve been supporting a local farm, Wood Duck Farm, for a few years now by participating in their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.
I have vague memories of when I was a child and my mom bought in to [...]
Thanks to Continental for providing $70 round trip tickets to Denver, we got to go to Colorado for a winter visit. We got to do everything we wanted: ice skating outside on a frozen lake, sledding on an icy hill, dinner with long-time friends, ping pong-ing in the basement, racquetball-ing at the community center, and just [...]
Tomorrow is the big day. Max finished up his valentines for his class today. Rockin’, right? Last year, I drew each one and he colored them. This year, I drew one, scanned it, and then printed them out so he could color them. I’m so glad my kiddos are learning how to show love [...]
I grew up in a home where music was important. We all took piano lessons and other instruments. We sang in choir. We sang together as a family on Sunday nights. Then, I married Chris who also has a love for music. We really hope to pass on our musicality to our children.
Early in our marriage, [...]
Now, I’m no interior designer (although I love stalking people who are). But I have discovered one thing that makes me so happy.
You can do it too.
Organize the kiddo’s books by color.
ps – We need more books with [...]
(My mother-in-law blowing out her candles at her birthday celebration)
Between my family and Chris’ family, there are 22 people. 9 of those have a birthday in December or January. I find it hard to keep up with honoring the birthdays because it’s in the middle of the holidays (I know, that is lame!). Does [...]
If you know me well, you know that I love lists. I make lists for everything (this goes back to my high school year book days where list-making was mandatory). So it may be surprising to know (especially to Melissa–Hi, Melissa) that I don’t make lists at the new year.
Years ago, I found that I was [...]
Merry Christmas from my family to yours!
Here we are a little dazed and exhausted after Christmas Sunday church.
The last two weeks have been jam-packed full of family and holiday spirit. We loved every minute of it. We have an empty house now (kind of lonely — very quiet) so I have lots of time to think [...]
As you may or may not know, we go to church each Sunday. This is what happened one day when Chris asked the boys to go get their church duds on:
Monkey glasses, bunny ears, a beard and gloves is almost the same thing as a shirt and tie, right?
Tomorrow, Chris and I are playing a viola [...]
