On this Veteran’s Day, I wanted to stop and take the time to say Thank You to all of you who have served this great country. Thank you is not enough, I know, but it is all I have to offer you. So, thank you. Thank you.

Thought I’d post out Halloween trick-or-treating pics for everyone. We went with some friends from church (who also have 3 boys) and had a blast!
First things first:
Here’s a pumpkin patch the boys made, which I thought was very cute.

Here’s our jack-o-lantern. He’s patterned after Jack the pumpkin king from The Nightmare Before Christmas. [...]

Halloween marks the start of our busy season around here. After Halloween, we prepare for Thanksgiving and Brian’s birthday. Fortunately, this year they aren’t the same day! 15 days later is Alex’s birthday.

Once again, it’s been far too long since I have blogged. I find it much harder to even be in the mood to blog now-a-days. It isn’t that I don’t want to, I’m just not motivated enough to think of something to blog about, lol. Not to mention that for the last two weeks, I’ve [...]

Yes, I know that there are now 96 days to Christmas, and not 100, as the title suggests. What I’m actually talking about is a website called One Hundred days to Christmas. It’s another List Mama blog, but I like it because it’s Christmas related. I always find that it sneaks up on me. One [...]

Today is a great day (although, admittedly, I’m really tired. I haven’t been sleeping well at all.) It’s a beautiful day and I’ve shooed the kids outside to play. We will be joining some church friends for a barbecue and fireworks later this evening. I am excited to see what Rochester has to offer for [...]

I hope everyone had a great Mother’s Day. We went to church and were transferred in as new members. Then, my dad bought us a gas grill as an early Christmas present, so dh grilled steaks for dinner. I finished my photomosaic puzzle (it only took me a week!) and had a pretty relaxing day. [...]

With Mother’s Day just over 2 weeks away, I have (finally) started thinking about what to get my mom. I’m probably a bit late in my planning, but I just have to get through the twins’ birthday before I can think about Mother’s Day. I decided I’d start with a search for the “hot” gifts [...]

Packing is back into full swing here. I decided to take a few days off for Christmas and to visit with my mom and step-dad, who were here visiting with us. Today, I have spent the day vigorously packing up the kitchen, leaving only what I know I absolutely need. You find out quickly when [...]
