Mid-Week Lookback

Just this week I was reminded that my wife and I got our new vehicles. We each got a Chevy Trax. What is had to believe is that just two years later, mine hit a big milestone. She hit 100,000 miles driving south on I-75 on my way to work. Here's to the next 100,000! … Continue reading Mid-Week Lookback →

Life’s Little Moments

This week, I felt like I really didn't feel like me. I'm not sure that even makes sense. I'm not sure what is "off," but something is. Hoping that I can figure out what the deal is. What's weird about it, is that there were some great things that happened this week. This week, the … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

I want to take a moment and say thank you to those who have emailed or commented asking about my wife. She is recovering nicely and has her two week follow up this week. I returned to work on Thursday. I was supposed to be off Thursday and Friday, but my wife decided I was … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

Tax Time We did our taxes this weekend. Well, we didn't, but our tax guy did. It's always nice to know that you're getting a refund. What was even nicer was to know that we are getting back money from the state taxes, too. It's never really a lot of money, but it is better … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

It was back to work this week for me, but what a weekend to look back on! I find myself full of gratitude with each day. Turkey Day Miracle? We stayed home on Thanksgiving. I put the turkey in the oven about noon, knowing it would be done around 4:00pm. I made a pot of … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

The week was a busy one to start with. Add a holiday to that and it get's crazy! This week, Ella only had to go to school two days. They made turkeys out of paper plates. They also asked each child what they were thankful for. ("I'm thankful for when mommy tucks me in at … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Superstar It was an exciting thing this week to see how well Ella is doing in school. She brought home a "book" that they were working on with her. It is short words with the short "a" sound. She read the entire thing to us! "Max The Cat" was the book and she did such … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

It seems like the last 7 days have been nonstop for our family, but in between doctor appointments, work, and school, we've managed to find time to enjoy some fun moments. First Photo If you've been following this blog for any length of time, you know that my children are no stranger to a camera! … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

It seems odd to do a week in review "highlights" post on Thursday, but it really is the day that I get an extra minute or two to look back, so here goes. Kicking Kid While the days leading up to it were extremely unorganized, Saturday morning Andrew got to play soccer. It was quite … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Life’s Little Moments

Good Mood This week, Andrew woke up in a particularly good mood. He was talkative, silly, and a very joyful boy. My wife, Sam, said to him, "You're in a really good mood today!" He looked at her and said, "That's because I didn't wake up with my mean eyebrows!" I'm not sure where he … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →
