Asking and receiving…

I think I might have gotten that warmer weather that I was asking for.  The kids have been able to play outside almost every day for the past week (expect for yesterday during some awful storms!).  That is a much needed answer to prayer!

I’ve been dealing with two active boys indoors for months on end.  [...]

My Day: A play by play…

I’ve had a pretty typical Tuesday today. Since I finally have a new camera (we took the last new one back because we didn’t like it- so now we have a new, new one) I thought I would take pics and document my ever so exciting day. J
Mornings are crazy! Two kids, getting everyone dressed, [...]



Snow Day…

We were given a surprise Snow Day on Friday! D3’s school got cancelled and everything- he was a bit excited!

Yay, no school!!

Uhm… what’s going on??

The view down our street.
What a fun way to spend the day!!

Our backyard:

Snowball fight!!!

What did I ever do to these two? J

Our snowman:

We had a great time on Friday. I could [...]



Happy Valentine’s Day…

Well, we finally got a new camera. Yay!

Now I have to learn how to use it. J
Apparently Valentine’s Day means food to me, because I made the boys heart pancakes for breakfast:

Don’t you love all the shadows in the picture? Like I said, I’m still learning to use the camera.
Then Luke and I made cupcakes:

Luke [...]



Blog slump, Broken camera, and Brad Paisley…

I’m in a total blogging slump. I’ve had nothing to say for the entire month of February. So sad I’m sure. J My camera broke last month and I swear I don’t know how to blog without a picture. It’s part of my extremely visual nature. We’ve got to get a camera pronto! We’ve missed [...]



January is also ending with a bang…

So, apparently our month of January thought it needed bookends.  We started the month with a big bang- my car being totaled.  Now we have ended the month with a big bang- Dan hitting a steel bumper while driving down the Interstate and damaging his car. 
It’s so unbelievable to me that I guess it’s believable!  Dan [...]



Our New Vehicle…

This is a complete swipe from Dan’s blog.  We finally have a new car (new to us anyway!) and I liked his post about it.
God Is Not a Used Car Buyer
January 20, 2010 / Dan
I recently posted why I think God is not an underhanded used car salesperson (UCS). Today, I will turn the tables and reflect about [...]



Randomness from the week…

We’re still dealing with car drama around here. Totaled cars, rental cars, lost titles L, trying to figure out a car payment etc….. While it’s a major inconvenience I am trying to remind myself of all of my blessings. The poor people of Haiti would love to switch situations with me right now.
The situation in [...]



Starting 2010 with a bang…

…quite literally.

Luke and I decided to stay home from church Sunday night. Mainly because one of us was super cranky after nap and was way too fussy to take for a nursery worker to deal with. Well, L finally started to perk up, so I decided we should run to Target and get a couple [...]
