Weekend fun
Peaches, pottery, gardening, shopping, playing, Olympics, snuggles – that about sums up the weekend, which started with a family outing to First Friday at Vintage21. We didn’t stay long at the concert/peach fest, because as I told Wookie. “That is no way to behave at an art show!” He was super excited to be out in public and was a little bit loud, so we listened to a few songs, partook in the peaches and beverages, and then Joe let…

Fourth of July!
Happy Fourth of July, friends! Today we have two things to celebrate. First, we got rain! Hooray! Wookie and I were outside poking around in the garden when the drops began to fall. We sat on the deck under the overhang of the roof to watch it come down. Second, Joe and I have been married eight years today! We’d really like to thank you all for commemorating our anniversary by lighting fireworks every year in our honor. We are…

Holding Pattern
In my immediate circle of friends there is a lot going on – joyful, devastating and just plain difficult. And none of it is my story to tell. For once, our life seems fairly stable in a holding pattern of sorts. I dread the potential fallout from even typing such a thing. For someone who believes in Jesus and trusts her life to Him, I fear tempting fate a little too much. For instance, I don’t want to have another…

Merry Christmas!
We bypassed sending out a Christmas card this year, but you can bet your sweet pants I’ll be printing up this baby for the keepsakes! We managed to get a decent family picture in only two tries. The secret? I stuffed the boys’ mouths with jellybeans (see the fat cheeks and smirks?). Merry Christmas, friends! I hope you day tomorrow is blessed with the presence of Emanuel, God with us!

Roof Safety
Late yesterday afternoon, the Man was still working outside and the boys were getting chilly, so the three of us went inside to warm up. We heard Joe walking around on the roof, and I figured he was cleaning the gutters. After awhile, there was some banging and I thought, “Oh, wow. He’s decided to work on the gutters and fascia boards.” Earlier this week, a repair guy came out to assess our gutters, and apparently there’s about $1,500 of…
