Happy Birthday to my dear, sweet husband!
I am so thankful for you. I am sorry that your birthday always gets a little less hoopla these days. You are so incredibly precious to us.
Hiccups
“Mommy, you know what I don’t like about hiccups?” Gillian
“What don’t you like about them Gilli?”
“I don’t like how they interrupt your words” Gillian
Amen to that!!!
Just love how she thinks about things. Love it!!!
I Wish For….
…Rain on my birthday!
What do you know…that little man got his wish.
H and his sister are so like my sister and I. Playing in the rain is so much fun, especially the warm ones. We used to take our dolls out and play in the water running down our street. Nowadays my kiddos love to play out on the deck, splash around, ride their [...]

Back in the Day
….it is easy to think that life was easier or more peaceful than it is now. In many ways it was more peaceful, but certainly not easier. Today, we took a field trip back 132 years or so in time. Back to the days of General Palmer.

Movie
Gilli and I went to the movies with our friends J & N for a girls day out. We went to see the movie, Wall – E, the latest Pixar/Disney movie. The nice thing about going to this movie is that I had not a clue what it was about and therefore had no expectations. The story line is unique for sure, many good lessons to be taken from [...]
Meet Piper (Canine#3)
I seem to have a thing with the number three.
Piper, the dog was recently was adopted into our family. He came to us from our dear friends here in town. We were very hesitant to bring another pet into our already crazy household. But, we couldn’t be happier to have Piper in our family. He is such a sweet little dog and he loves havi [...]
Summer Birthdays
I will never personally know what it is like to have a summer birthday, but I sure do enjoy experiencing it with my family. July is such a fun month, it is actually one of my favorite months. My baby just turned 5 and my eldest will be 7 in just a few days. I think back to the day each of them was born and the memories just flood my mind, [...]

July has been a crazy busy time of year for us ever since we added two little Russell’s to our family. We have three birthdays, my parents anniversary and Independence day all packed into the first tw [...]
