Where Am I Going?!

Yesterday I took the kids to a birthday party for a co-worker's daughter. She lives about 40-45 minutes from me. I punched the address into the GPS and it told me where to go. My co-worker sent me a text saying to look for the pink and purple balloons on the mailbox on the side … Continue reading Where Am I Going?! →

Time To Play

I know very few adults who wake up and jump out of bed with a ton of energy. Personally, I get up and need a cup of coffee in order to get the day going. My daughter, however, always seems to be up and ready for the day as soon as she gets out of … Continue reading Time To Play →

Your Wish Is My Command

We take the baby monitor out into the living room so we can see when Ella … Continue reading A Typical Dad Day →

Breezing Through The Weekend

I think sometimes we take things for granted. Don't get me wrong, I love central air, especially in the summer. However, today I got to enjoy a wonderful breeze in the living room. When the kids and I walked the neighborhood this morning, it was 64 degrees. I actually put jeans on for the walk. … Continue reading Breezing Through The Weekend →
