I truly hope that you and your family had a wonderful holiday! I'm a bit late getting my update written, so please forgive me. It has been a busy, yet relaxing few days. On Monday, we got quite a wintery mix of weather. The day started with rain and freezing rain. It eventually changed to … Continue reading 2024 Holiday Recap

Our Ballerina Girl
Ella has been in dance for a while now. Sam has been taking her to the classes because I work on the nights of class. Outside of her showing me a few things at home, I hadn't had a chance to see her dance yet. Friday night was the dress rehearsal and both Sam and … Continue reading Our Ballerina Girl
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
Unexpected Halloween Twist
Every once in a while my kids will do something that just amazes me. That happened last night on Halloween. I took the day off so I could be with the kids yesterday. However, I wound up going to work for a few hours. I need to bank a few extra hours for upcoming stuff. … Continue reading Unexpected Halloween Twist
Life’s Little Moments
I've been having fun on the blog in the last week or so. However, we've experienced our share of rough stuff at home. Hopefully, we're working our way towards the end of it. Germs! It started with Ella about three weeks ago. She went to urgent care with a fever. They said it was an … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments

We got Andrew an indoor trampoline to help him build some upper core strength. I knew I'd be putting it together when I got home. That way, … Continue reading 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
Another Milestone
It's going to be hard going back to work today. I took a couple extra days off because Ella started Preschool. Friday, the teachers did a home visit at our house. She was excited to meet them. It was a half hour visit to answer questions about her likes and dislikes and to get to … Continue reading Another Milestone

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
A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe?
So a co-worker came in last week and sat down next to me. "Keith, do you want another kitty?" Without any hesitation whatsoever I gave her a firm, "No!" She showed me a picture of four kittens who had been abandoned at a relative's house and said they were trying to find them homes. I … Continue reading A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe?
