The Forgotten To-Do List
Is that blood? Did someone die here? That’s really what you might think when you look at not one, but two, different spots in one of our living rooms. But calm the panic. It’s not blood. It’s just candle wax. But it does look like some poor small animal has been maimed there…or inside the […]
Wrong Side of the Bed
I’m normally a pretty upbeat person. Some may disagree but I’d say it’s rare that I’m in a truly bad mood. But this morning… I’ve never used the phrase “Woke up on the wrong side of the bed” to describe my attitude but that sure was me today. Everything seemed to bother me from the […]
Too good to be true?
October 18, 2016 Currently, I have uttered the words “We are moving.” to maybe five people. It’s coming out a bit easier now. But as my sister pointed out (who was only person number three), I had to say it in a joking way. When I checked my email this evening, I saw a ‘SPAM’ […]
And the verdict is…
…we’re moving to Montana! What will that make us? Montananites? Montanaians? I have no idea. I’ve yet to be able to utter the words “We’re moving to Montana” except to Matt and I think I literally only said it once. Saying it out loud makes it so real. All the worries that come with this […]
Oh yea..right
October 13, 2016 Everyone has those plans on how to lose weight, tone up those muscles, get more energy. Gyms fill up every January with the inspired. I’ve been one of them. By March, the gym is not nearly as full as the inspired are now uninspired. I’ve also been one of them. My latest […]

Tomorrow our family grows by one…
July 6, 2014 …hairy one that is. Matt and I are heading out early in the morning to drive 8 hours and pick up Tippet! I have packed a bag with everything the internet has told me to. We will be stopping along the way to get some other things as we have not had […]
We’re getting a….what?!
July 4, 2014 Since last time we were able to tell my family the news…but it didn’t come without complications as expected. With a plane cancelation and a sister who asks A LOT of questions, my family was on to the news before we could deliver it. But, it didn’t curb their excitement at all. […]
One down…many to go
June 12, 2014 We told Jerry, Darnell and Erika about the baby two days ago and it went perfect. I have the video to prove it 🙂 We went over to their house and had dinner. We went about the whole evening like always. While we were all sitting on the porch Matt handed Jerry […]
To tell or not to tell
June 8, 2015 Next step…. Begin telling people. Matt and I weighed the pros and cons of telling people now or waiting until the end of the first trimester. I asked my doctor her opinion as well and she offered these two schools of thought: 1) WAIT. Some people feel they should wait to announce […]
