Remember the Bay City Rollers? One of my very earliest memories is of that song. Yes, I am old. Last Saturday everyone was home. That is so rare these days. So we took advantage of it. Had a fire in the backyard. Made S’mores. Well Andy and the boys did, I was up bathing and...

Buckeyes
It’s that time of year again. Buckeye time! On the tree and on the field. And in honor of the first OSU football tomorrow night against Marshall, we picked a bunch of Buckeyes for the boys They come in these big husks that are pokey on the outside and spongy on the inside The boys...
Dogs
Some day I will figure out this new blog- I sorta feel like going back to the old one while I get the new one loaded up. The problem is it is all html code and my brain just doesn’t go there. So I have to wait on Andy. Bummer. edited to add- I did...

We are settling into a new routine around here. So far it hasn’t been too bad. 6pm rolls around and Austin stumbles in the front door. Middle school, Cross Country Practice, and walking home. Makes for a pretty tired and very hungry boy. The girl likes to help in the kitchen. She likes to carry...

Brave
One of the many things I love about this crazy girl is she has no fear. She tries things the boys would never do. Like stick her face in a water hose. She loves it.
You never know what will show up on your memory card
I gave Blake my Canon Rebel a while back and since it uses the same memory card as mine, I never know what I will find on my card. Apparently Blake has been researching how to do light stuff with the camera, and had Cole join him on the last two. Please ignore my messy...
Endless Summer
There is a part of me that really wants this, but there is also a part of me that is ready to kiss this summer goodbye. It has been a stressful summer, and it while those issues are still up in the air (hopefully to be resolved SOON!) I know I haven’t gotten much out...
