Guess who just lost her two front teeth? Right in time for all the photos. Whoo hooo! Very cute. And, of course, it has prompted all kinds of holiday theme song singing: Last night she put her tooth under her pillow. This was the fifth time for ...

Last weekend was a very festive one. We got all of our Holiday celebrating packed into two days. On Saturday, we went to our local farm and experienced Christmas like they did in Victorian times. There were crafts to make, cookies to sample, Fathe...

Thanksgiving Break

2009-12-02T04:33:12Z

Maggie and I get a week off for Thanksgiving. A WEEK! Unbelievable. We start school in August, so maybe that is why. But still, it is a wonderful time to travel. And Kevin has two days off, so he just takes three more, and there you have it. A vac...

My Hero

2009-10-20T15:42:10Z

Last week I was kind of pushing it. Maggie had the croup, I had a bad cough and couldn't sleep through the night, Kevin had 15 hour work days. And I had a full weekend planned. I had planned it without really consulting Kevin. Because Kevin didn'...

Perhaps I should slow down a little....

2009-10-13T16:39:26Z

Recently, I had been patting myself on the back for how darned efficient I was being. Errands run? Check. Work out DVD performed? Check. Floor mopped? Check. Articles typed up for the church newsletter? Check. Lessons planned and papers grade...

Too much to even TRY to write coherently.....

2009-08-02T04:15:00Z

Did Someone say "Toenails?"

2009-06-01T07:11:26Z

Ha. This is sort of funny, because I just had a toenail incident this past Friday! At my local manicure place around the corner. I hadn't been in a really long time. But my beautiful ($4) pedicure that I got in Thailand was starting to wear off, a...

End of Year Madness

2009-05-31T06:24:12Z

There is so much stuff going on right now, I don't know where to start. Here are possible blog topics that I have thought about writing, but can't decide which to pursue. 1) Maggie's Dance Recital (yes, it is that time of year again) 2) Open hou...
