I’d better post my 4th of July pictures before it’s the 4th of August! Tony’s parents came down for the weekend. It was fun to have them here to visit. Papa Tom brought a project with him: switching our crappy basement windows for gorgeous block windows. The kids HAD to help. They wouldn’t even wait…

My camera is full of pictures of my sweet family doing fun things. Too bad I’m too lazy to actually download them. Sorry to all of you sitting on the edge of your seats every morning waiting to see if I posted anything. I promise you that I will eventually get around to it. Tony…

When my brother Shane comes to town, there are always lots of fun activities in the works. He is so good about planning things for the kids to do. I don’t think my kids would have seen half of the things they have if it wasn’t for his trips to Ohio with his family. Here’s…

I want the kids to be more active. I asked Corinne to pick one activity to do this summer. She said, “Dance.” I searched the internet and called numerous dance studios. Most require the student attend for a full year and charge tuition even if you move/quit. Lame! I found one offering a summer course…

The fam left for Hartford immediately after Corinne got off the bus on the last day of school. The kids stayed there for a week after Tony and I came back to Columbus so that I could fill in for someone vacationing at work. That made this the first week with them at home. Now…

I can’t believe it! I WON! Okay so 1500 people won, but that’s not the point here. Scroll down a few inches and read the post about screaming for ice cream. Well, Edy’s must have heard my scream because my street is about to PAR-TAY! I guess a release form is in the mail. Once…

A friend just sent me an email that referred me to this website. It’s good for 2 free kids’ games of bowling EVERYDAY during the summer! I’m in shock! At the end, you can buy a pass for 4 adults to bowl with them for $23.95. Amazing deals! You have to pay to rent shoes,…

We all scream for ice cream! I just found out about a cool contest put on my Edy’s/Dreyer’s ice cream. They are giving away 1500 neighborhood ice cream parties. The only stipulation is that you have to invite me if you win. If you don’t live within driving distance, I am willing to half airfare…

Tony just left to go help someone from church load their moving truck. The kids are bathed and in bed. I’m bored out of my mind and came across this on my sister-in-law’s blog. I figured…why not? So far the bold items is where my life has taken me…what about you??? {post this on your…

…BUCKEYE FEVER, that is!!!! Tony and I took Corinne and Mason to their first OSU football game on Saturday. It was the Spring Game where two captains pick teams and play each other. The weather was summerlike (by that I mean full sunscreen and lots of whining due to heat). The tickets were only $5…
