This picture of big brother is so much more than a picture of my son, it represents my son devouring a book at the age of seven. I was never good at reading, I honestly hated reading for a long time, it took me so long to read a page and then I would not have actually understood what I…
All three brothers started swim lessons today. Big brother sees it as means to getting him to swim team sooner. Middle brother likes swim lessons however he has mentioned that he really rather do the swim team practices that we did this spring, I am not sure what it is about those that he likes better – however middle brother…
Getting hubby to take a picture is like pulling teeth. While at the Parker Street party I asked hubby to sit on a bench and take a picture with his sons. I think the only reason that hubby agreed was because of it being father’s day. I even agreed that everyone could make funny faces or hide, kind of hubby’s…
Maybe it is just me, but I love going to open houses and driving through neighborhoods admiring homes, today hubby obliged. While driving around I grabbed hubby’s arm and told him to pull over immediately… do you blame me? This back yard was gorgeous! There were garden beds lined with flowers, bird baths to splash in and then this large…
Sometimes you have to just let them dance in the rain. I have been busy this week with vacation bible school and by the time we get home in the afternoon I am so tired and worn out that I just want to sit and vedge out. An afternoon rain storm had me get the older two boys out of…
Hubby has decided that during the summer he will be taking Fridays off. Today was our first Friday Family Fun day… that was a lot of “f” words. We headed out early this morning and went to Buena Vista. Hubby had a rafting trip booked so while he rafted the boys and I went into town and played at a…
Big brother went out for swim team. Unfortunately he was not able to make the cut. Big brother was determined and rather heart broken over being cut but he took it in stride and told me that he was going to work really hard and was going to try and make swim team in the fall. That’s my boy! Nothing…
During the summer we are hopping from the pool to water park to regular park. I think that between the water and the sun my boys grow like weeds. Summer time is for fun and oh boy are we having it. We are only in the first week of summer and the boys have been running from sun up to…
Don’t you just want to take a seat with a cold beverage? I know I want to! Hubby found that swing at a garage sale on Saturday. At first when he told me he wanted to buy it I said, “Nah, we don’t have the space that would work.” Hubby proved me wrong, yet again! That swing looks like it…
Maybe it is just me but when I think about juggling, the word happy does not pop into my head. Granted I have never been able to throw three things in the air and keep two of them airborne. Tonight a few ladies and I went and watched the movie “Moms’ Night Out”. What does this have to do with…
