So I know I am crazy but I am putting ALL of our Halloween-y activities into one gigantic post. Halloween with kids is fun but holy moly it is BUSY. I think I’m still recovering from all of the festivities. It makes me tired just looking at all the pictures! So buckle up your safety […]

St. Patty’s Day

March 18, 2010

Yesterday was St. Patrick’s Day, as you probably know. We don’t have mischevious but generous and adorable leprechauns that visit our house like some cute people we know (the leprechauns miss us every single year!). But we do wear green. And we eat green things that normally aren’t green. The kids woke up and I made delish cinnamon […]

Christmas in July

July 22, 2009

I am home today with a sick, throwing up baby while the rest of my family is spending the day boating for a family reunion. I am so depressed about it! Mostly because I hate it when my kids are sick and helpless, and poor sweet Haylie just feels terrible, you can see it in […]

Our 4th of July Weekend: Part 2

July 13, 2009

On Saturday morning we slept in a little bit then headed up to PC to spend the day with Jaden’s side of the fam. It was only about 68 degrees when we got there, which was a nice change. We met at Uncle Kevin and Aunt Cheryl’s condo and walked over to the parade, making […]

Our 4th of July Weekend: Part 1

July 9, 2009

I always love the 4th of July weekend. Dressing all in red, white and blue, talking with the kids about why we celebrate Independence Day and our freedoms, parades, family, fireworks, and of course, good food. We had a great time this year, starting off with a BBQ at my parents’ place on Friday night. […]

Easter 2009

April 21, 2009

Another Easter has come and gone. I really love this time of year. It’s strange to think that just last Easter (it was in March) I was pregnant with Haylie. I’m constantly amazed with how fast time goes. And how the kids are growing. So I get out my camera and try to freeze time […]
