Wow – how times have changed. This past Saturday was Cameron’s first experience with the Pine Wood Derby races…and my first in over 20 years. Suffice it to say, I think we were BOTH overwhelmed. Cameron was overwhelmed with the experience – and watching his car zoom down the track. I was overwhelmed with how far this event has come over...
Read MoreSo what in the world does this picture have to do with anything you ask? Read on…trust me…the connection is an easy one. As I tossed and turned all night, unable to find ANY shred of comfy sleep, I found myself facscinated that one incident – that took only a matter of seconds – could cause so much pain to so many people…and in so many...
Read MoreWell I have been meaning to do it for months now…but I have FINALLY gotten the ‘Through The Years’ section up to date! Doing this page makes me realize a couple things: It was a lot easier to find ‘similar’ pictures when they were babies, because all babies pose the same It is turning into more of a study in how our cameras got better...
Read MoreThis past weekend Cameron played in his first ever basketball game…and boy was it fun to watch. It brought back so many memories of the games I used to play back in elementary school…there’s just something about the sound of a basketball game in a carpeted-gym. Anyway, Cameron did great and had such a blast. He had a handful of steals that...
Read MoreSo for those of you who are reading this from the comfy confines of Colorado, you are well aware that this winter has been one of the dryest in recent memory. Not only did Colorado set a record for ‘latest snowfall’, but it appears well on it’s way to setting records for ‘lowest total snowfall’ as well. In fact, I can count on one hand...
Read MoreThis year sure did start off on a high note. We had a great eve spent with some neighbors as well as our good friends Chris and Molly, and actually didn’t even wake up feeling too bad! We took it pretty easy for most of the day, and ended up scooting over to McDonald’s for lunch. On the way back, we were treated to something truly special. We have a giant...
Read MoreTrust me…it’s ONLY due to the fact that the kiddos had to wait in line for an hour and a half to see Santa that they don’t look too excited. They were literally jumping up and down at the opportunity to see the big guy! And honestly, are these pictures ever great!?!? So as we jump in with both feet to one of the busiest days of the year, we wish...
Read MoreWe are currently SWAMPED with trying to get ready for company…finish shopping…bake goodies…etc., so this post is incredibly short. Basically we just wanted to get CJ’s school picture posted, since we got it right around Thanksgiving and haven’t had the time to scan it in until tonight. And while I look at it, I realize he looks nothing...
Read MoreOne of the most special traditions we have each year is making my Grandma’s Christmas cookies. They are without-a-doubt, the BEST cookies I have ever tasted, and it is such a special treat to be able to carry on the tradition with our kiddos. I have such vivid memories of sitting in my Grandma & Grandpa’s kitchen when I was younger…decorating,...
Read MoreWhile we finish up recovering from the busy Halloween season…and prepare for the even busier Christmas season…I thought I would share the kiddos latest school pictures. I wanted to post these earlier, but I’ve been waiting for CJ’s to come in. Alas, they are still not in, so I just thought I’d go ahead and post Cameron and...
Read MoreSo the ‘Through the Years‘ page has (finally) been updated with 15 month pictures…and 18 month pictures will be added later this week. This summer was waaaaaaaaaaay too busy to keep up with this project, but I hope you enjoy the new updates. It’s interesting to notice the similarities in our kiddos…and while we always said CJ looks exactly...
Read MoreWhile a lot of you know how busy our Saturday mornings are…few of you have actually been able to join us on one of the whirlwind trips we take each week. So, we thought we would share some pics of our most recent ‘crazy’ Saturday! The schedule boils down like this: soccer game for Cameron, Soccer practice and game for Ellie, ballet for Ellie...
