About Our Blog

Thanks for visiting! I created this blog to share updates on my family and how grateful we are for all the blessings the Lord has given us. I am happily married and the busy working mommy of two very active little boys. We enjoy raising our family and making memories together. I blog about the ordinary adventures of family life and my many other mommy-interests.

Memorial Day Weekend 2009


By far the best Memorial Day Weekend ever! Nana and Granddaddy came up for a long weekend and we had a great time! Here are some of the highlights:
- a new sandbox for James
- a bigger kiddie pool (I had to get in with him! It was a tight fit, but pretty fun.....)
- grilling out (great steaks and chicken Daniel! YUM!)
- lots of time playing together inside and out
- my parents getting up early with James so we could sleep in (Thank you!!!!)
- a fancy dinner out Sat. night to celebrate lots of things we weren't able to celebrate until we all got together
- a "girl's only" afternoon for my mom and me

And today, A BIG THANK YOU to all service people who have served or are serving our country so that we can live in freedom and enjoy peace on our own soil. You are the reason our family was able to enjoy today and all days like today. We do not stop to say thank you enough.

Some of our favorite pictures from the weekend....
