These are too good not to share! On Her Last Leg First, I should tell you that Riley likes to play this annoying “nose-eating” game with Mom in which she puts her lips on the bridge of Mom’s nose and pretends to “eat” it. This is one of those only-a-Grandma-would-play-it games. I can tell you […]

There’s something about life at the beach that inspires new identities. It’s almost as though as the shore refreshes and reshapes itself we are all reshaped and renewed right along with it.

We had a wonderful time last night at the Fall Festival! The kids were so excited. Riley had to get the schedule all straight so that she’d know exactly when she could put on her Cinderella costume. When I told her that it would be after I got back from helping with set-up at the […]

This is Riley’s and Adam’s last week of track out, so it seems to be our week to finish up on some odds and ends and check off the to do list. Today we went to get flu shots. When I told Zoe we were going she said, “BUT girls don’t get shots.” I guess […]

Hello all, So many of you have said, “I haven’t received any updates on the kids lately (a comment for which I feel extremely blessed—that you pray for us and want to know means more to us than words can say),” that Kevin and I thought we’d start a blog that you can read if […]
