We'll be sending up a lot of prayers this week. Andrew's surgery was schedule to happen in late September. Sam woke up this afternoon saying that the ENT office had called and wanted us to call back as soon as we got the message.

Random (and cool) Act of Kindness
As you know, they are working on our street. They are ripping up the water and sewer lines and working on a new water main before resurfacing the whole road. This morning as I was cooking breakfast Sam took Andrew outside because Consumers Energy was out working on something. They had two of their diggers … Continue reading Random (and cool) Act of Kindness
She’s Movin’ On Up!
There is nothing that makes time move faster than watching your children grow. In 6 months, Ella will be 4 years old.

Celebrating Summer
Yesterday was the first day of summer and my family is certainly ready for it! We got an early start a few weeks ago with our day trip to the beach in Caseville, MI. At home, we've got the big sprinkler that looks like a fire hydrant and a blow up pool in the yard … Continue reading Celebrating Summer
The Cat’s Meow
On the old Soupy Sales show, one of the easiest way to set up a joke was to have someone come banging on his door. One of my favorite lines (that no one else finds funny) goes like this: (Door Knocking) (Soupy opens the door) "Yes?" (Man at door) "Well, I guess you don't like … Continue reading The Cat’s Meow
