So, last December 31, I did this little tag from There Is No Place Like Home. And I guess what they say is true, time speeds up every year–because it feels like I just did this last week. But in the spirit of tradition and i’m-not-sure-what-else-to-post, I thought I’d join up again. (Sorry to TINPLH [...]

Lydia woke up with a fever this morning but she is as happy go lucky as can be now! I’m glad because she and Asa have had little coughs for about two days. Not only that but today is the day the sisterchicks are going to eat CUPCAKES. *sigh* I love me a good cupcake. [...]

I’ve been blogging for almost 2 years. And in those two years, I think blogging has mushroomed. Or tidal-waved. Or something. I’ve seen blogs that I consider “famous” to celebrate their one or two year anniversary! I’ve seenĀ look-how-cute-my-kids-are blogs turn into influential mommy blogs. And even my little old blog has gone from a [...]

Last year when we were taking the Christmas tree down, I couldn’t move because I was watching Sara Groves DVD about her trip to Africa. Yesterday, we picked up Sara Groves new Christmas album and although it’s not even on the same plane as Africa…you still have to hear it.
I found it on video so [...]

…all the decorations are being taken down!
Really? When do you take your decorations down? I hope not today. I’d love to keep mine up forever but my daughter’s birthday is January 5th. At least it gives me a good cut off date.
Anyway, I just wanted to share my very favorite AFTER Christmas tip with you. [...]

I wish I could send a Christmas card to every one of my bloggy friends! But alas, I didn’t send a card to even one person. I have a newborn. That’s a good excuse, right?!
Merry Merry Christmas!
Love you all!

My brother and me. Late 80’s. Shocker.
Aren’t you sad you didn’t know me then? You could have got one of these in the mail! The bad thing is that my aunt in California has the one on the bottom HANGING UP in her house. Like right now! 2008! *shudder*

When I was little, every Christmas my mom would make let us sing a song before we opened presents. Usually it was a song from our church’s Christmas play. This is one of many amazing photos of Jason and me performing for the fam. Don’t we look excited? And exciting?
Well, besides my beautiful 10 year [...]

It’s like ten minutes till Christmas. At least that’s what it feels like. And I still have too many things to do. It’s kinda crazier than normal around here because my husband’s birthday is on the 23rd and my mom’s is on the 24th. That’s extra presents, extra food, extra plans, extra everything! *sigh*
Anyway, this [...]
