The year we got married, my mother-in-law gave us a lovely heart-shaped ornament with one of our wedding photos in it. We’ve been adding new ornaments to our collection every year since then, and it has definitely become my favorite Christmas tradition. After 8 years, our tree is starting to fill up nicely. Just thinking…
WE HAD SO MUCH FUN WITH OUR HALLOWEEN COSTUMES THIS YEAR!!!! Ok… I might be a little too excited. But it was so fun making these AND wearing them. We went to trunk-or-treat at our church last night and had a blast. Oh my goodness, have I mentioned how fun these costumes are?? I am…
I figured since I’m all blogging again and whatnot, I should probably share some pictures from Flynn’s birthday party! Because it was awesome. Just like last year’s party, only with Dr. Who! Shaun and I had a lot of fun planning this party. I mean, a “Link and Zelda and Tardis” party? How could we…
Juniper has a very detail oriented personality. Everything has to go EXACTLY how she pictures it in her head. If we are doing a project from a book, it needs to look just like the photo. You have to answer her questions exactly how she thinks you should. (That one is tricky. I’m not a…
YES. Yes I do. I’ve never been much of a fan of winter… but I DO love a good snowman! We got a ridiculous ton of snow yesterday. I even got to work from home. And all day I just kept thinking, ‘we are going to build the biggest snowman ever!’ Well, we finally got…
Last year I accomplished just a bit over 50% of my birthday goals. Which is kind of funny, because I honestly didn’t even look at the list after I wrote it up in January. I THINK I know where that paper ended up, but I’m not quite sure. This year I’m going to hang it…
Every year since we’ve been married, I’ve added a new photo Christmas ornament to our collection. One for us, and one for each kid once they showed up to the party. When we’ve been married for 50 years, our whole tree is going to be a giant scrapbook and I love that! (I really try…
It’s been so long since I’ve sat down and wrote a blog post that I’m drawing a complete blank on where to start! We have had a great couple of very busy weeks around here, between Juniper’s birthday and multiple Christmas celebrations. Our house is covered in random packaging and the kids have been busy…
Well, we managed to do it! Here is our Christmas card for this year. I didn’t think we would be able to make one this year, because I have just been so so busy. But we came up with an idea (Ok, Shaun came up with an idea) and took photos this past weekend. I’m…
Behold! Our amazing Halloween costumes! Man oh man, we had maybe a little too much fun planning and making (and wearing!) our costumes this year. It’s too bad Ganondorf had to work and didn’t get to go trick-or-treating with us. Well, actually that might have ended up being a good thing, because Flynn would most…
