Bright and early this morning 10:00, am or so ;-), we got ready and drove up to hike up Seven Bridges. The kids were very excited for a family adventure. It must have only been 90 degrees out with a nice, humid breeze slamming into our faces. Actually I am being a bit sarcastic. . .
Most of that is true, we started out on our hike and fina [...]

Seven Bridges…?
Bright and early this morning 10:00, am or so ;-), we got ready and drove up to hike up Seven Bridges. The kids were very excited for a family adventure. It must have only been 90 degrees out with a nice, humid breeze slamming into our faces. Actually I am being a bit sarcastic. . .

Vacation Bible School
Another fun year at VBS! This year Gillian got to be part of the action as well. I cannot believe that both of my kids are old enough to participate. Each of them were blessed with wonderful, nurturing teachers that made this an experience to remember. This year’s theme was Summer Seaquest. Which included the story of Jonah and tru [...]

The Big Tent
No, I am not talking about the circus…but, there is a three domed tent on our back lawn.
Hayden also chose to have a sleep over for his birthday this year and asked his two best buds to come over to ‘camp’. The really sweet thing is that they also included little sister.
What a really fun day! Dad really added the aweso [...]
We’re not in Kansas anymore!
As most of you know I have a special group of ladies that I mostly know ‘on-line’. We have been ‘friends’ since before our 2001 babies were born. We met on BabyCenter and have all been in touch since. It is really a special group of women, we are all there for support, advice and friendship. I have had the privilege [...]
Hang-nail
“Does anyone have a first-aide kit?” we hear frantically from the backseat of the car as we head into the mountains for our camping trip. Not exactly sure if Hayden was just checking to see if we remembered it or if he could have actually gotten hurt sitting in the backseat. “I have a hang-nail!” he blurts out! &# [...]
Time for God
When a married couple figures out the formula of a good marriage, life is good! Those little gifts you give each other that speak so much with so little said. I love that! This evening, my sweet husband offered to give me the night off of bedtime routine. He even suggested I go to one of my favorite craft stores and look about. What a gi [...]
Campsite Surprise!
The morning of Gigi’s birthday, the lady who owned the campground came up to our camp with a birthday bag for the birthday girl. Our first thought was, ‘how’d they know it was Gigi’s birthday?’
Turns out Nana & Papa B called them and asked them to deliver a package of goodies for their Granddaugh [...]
Little conversations
Can you tell that I have just enjoyed this crazy day?
I just had to share a few of the funny moments that I have experienced with the girls.
While at McDonalds, the girls were sitting all in a row, sorta eating but gabbing. They turned around and saw a younger girl playing alone. They all included her and started chatting with her too. W [...]
First Slumber Party
As a kid, I loved having my friends spend the night at my house. Mom would always make great treats and we would stay up all night playing dress-up, dollies, games and lots and lots of screaming?! I don’t remember that part and bless my parents hearts, if we were crazy, excitable girls. My daughter truly does not ask for much, an oc [...]
