A Prayer Answered
As some of you know, Tony is assigned to a job this year that has him traveling away from home often. I have been praying for something to keep the kids entertained and me sane. Friday was the day that it all worked out. After dinner, we had the kids go look out the front…

Cures for Boredom
I struggle often with new things for the family to do while stuck indoors. The weather keeps teasing us that it is warming up, but then we go right back into rainy days. Here’s what I like to do: Is that not totally disgusting? I am not in love with my 1980s kitchen flooring. I…

Easter Egg-stravaganza 2009
Tacky title. I know. I just couldn’t help myself. We have church at 9 o’clock so the kids got all dolled up for a picture. Too bad their silly faces wouldn’t cooperate with me. I love Mason’s far off look. I told him that the Easter Bunny doesn’t come until after kids go to church.…

Mason turns 4!

Is it springtime yet?
We are bored. Very bored. I’m ready for the weather to break so that we can get outside more often. Just in case you care, this post will show you what my kids do to occupy themselves. Corinne got a curling iron for her birthday from her Aunt Stephanie. Now she loves to have her…

Happy Belated 6th, Corinne!
I can’t believe my girl is 6! She was so excited to have her birthday. She was due to have her teeth cleaned, and asked that I schedule it the morning of her birthday. A girl after my heart! (We’ll have a whole post on the dentist later.) Corinne was indecisive this year about what…

Papa Tom
The kids love their Papa Tom. He’s a great grandpa. His occupation is in the masonry business. One of the main builders he works with in Cleveland has a sister here in town that is building a house. He recruited Papa Tom to do all the masonry work. We were so excited to have him…
