The other night we were sitting on the couch and I looked over at Clint and told him, “You know, there is really something that has come between us” It’s very obvious in the quiet of the evening when we wanting to sit close on the couch together and re-connect after a busy day of […]
MoreDear Little One- The Autumn is really pretty here this year. I wish I could show it to you. I have seen from pictures that people have posted that are over in Seoul right now picking up their little ones that there are a lot of beautiful leaves there too. But I’m not sure that […]
MoreIt truly is. Those extroverts out there are probably thinking that this is crazy talk, but those like me all know that it is true. Think about it. Either you walk around the block with the kids and ring a bunch of doorbells and silently hope on the inside that no one is going to […]
MoreSome families spend Saturday nights playing games, some go to the movies, some invite friends over, some go and watch sporting events together.

MoreThere seems to have been a memo sent around my household sometime in the last week that mentioned that clothing was optional. I did not receive this particular memo and I’m trying to track down its origins. Of note, my husband seemed to have received the opposite memo though, as it’s gotten slightly cooler (ie […]
MoreI spent the morning on the preschool field trip to one of the local pumpkin patches. We took a little tour and saw old machinery, sheep, chickens, a donkey and a array of other farm animals. I think the kids love the straw maze the best. As I drove Leighton and one of the other […]
