We have many, many, many photo albums in bins that I do not have access to from before my digital camera days. Joey has just started emptying them out and scanning them so that I/we/our whole family will have access to them. Thus, I get to take a walk down memory lane in new time […]
Easter is here and thus the time honored tradition of Easter Egg Hunts. From Chloe at age 10 to Ava at 3, all of my children are looking forward to this. In fact, since last year we have had those plastic eggs floating around the house because Jayden and Ava hide them for each other […]
Shortly after we moved in to our first house I noticed the family across the street. It was winter so none of us were outside very much but it did appear as though they had a daughter close in age to Chloe, maybe 6- 8months old. When summer came and we were outside more, I […]
Earlier this week my brother-in-law sent me a picture. He had driven by our old house and decided to take a picture so we could see the changes. It is odd to see the changes that the new owner makes to the outside. Last year they changed the landscaping in front by removing our stacker […]
Over at NaBloPoMo, every month is a new month for you to make your “National Blog Posting Month”. Their suggested theme for this month is STRANGE(R). I successfully participated in their February Blog Posting Month. Although, it kind of felt like cheating because it is the shortest month of the year! As the end […]
I grew up hearing stories from my parents and brothers about all the things they used to do. My brothers are 9 and 12 years older than I am so by the time I was born their childhoods were in full swing. By the time I can really remember a lot, my brothers were grown […]
I was recently searching for a picture for a photo content over at I ♥ Faces and I came across a series of pictures that I took in June of 2009. They were taken at my Uncle Henry and Aunt Sue’s house when we were there for a family picnic. Separately, I don’t think the […]
Yesterday, February 25th, was my birthday. As birthdays go it was pretty normal for me. A regular day with nothing really special other than general well wishes, a couple of cards, and a fantastic homemade ice cream cake. My birthdays in adulthood are not nearly as great as I remember my childhood ones to have […]
Everyone knows it is like a right of passage to leave your crib or toddler bed and head into your “big-kid” bed! For each of our children it was a fun and exciting time. Unbeknownst to Chloe she had to move on because there was another sibling on the way who would need the crib. […]
We have been in our new house almost 2 years now. One of the things we love most is that there has been a minuscule amount of home improvement jobs to be done here. At our old house not only were there always projects to be done, but they were always big ones! From sanding […]
Spending scheduled time with my “Walk and Talk” buddy Shana and her boys has been such a joy over the past months. I look forward to getting out and sharing a piece of me with her, and getting to accept all the wonderful pieces of her she has to offer me. Shana, I know you […]
I can’t help but notice certain “matching” tendencies throughout the countless folders of photos that I have stored in my computer. So I just had to dig a few out and put them together here!
