I was looking through some old photos on my Photobucket account this morning when I ran across a video from our old house that I had forgotten all about! It was the morning {the very early morning} of July 4th, 2007. Super G. and I were woken by a loud racket. It sounded like a whole […]

Cultivating my daughter’s love of reading — Finally!
February 27, 2012 By 10 Comments
Reading has always been important to me. There is nothing in this world like the feeling of a worn book in your hand. Or, the pleasure you can get from being the very first to turn the pages of a brand new novel. I’ve been reading for as long as I can remember and it […]

February 8, 2012 By 19 Comments
We had a great family night out on Tuesday! We went and saw The Harlem Globetrotters at Tullio Arena! This is the second time we’ve gone to see them and it was still funny. Last year we had awesome seats right up front but for some reason the seating chart was NOT right on the […]

After years and years of struggling and trying to make ends meet, my husband’s business is finally starting to prove that it can reliably support our family. Super G. works hard at his job, he is good at it and I am so glad that he is succeeding. The past two years have been the […]
{almost} Wordless Wednesday – Cuddling with Grandma
January 31, 2012 By 32 Comments
I’ve always loved this photo of my mom sitting on the couch cuddling with her grandchildren. Can you believe this was eleven years ago? Also, I never noticed it before but both of my silly kids have the same look on their face! If I’ve shared this photo before, I’m sorry — too lazy to sort […]
#Project365 (366) – week number four
January 29, 2012 By 2 Comments
We had quite the week. I had to remind myself several times to take pictures and somehow Thursday blew right by without my brain remembering to take a single one. No pictures on either one of my cameras, none on Pie’s, none on Mr.T’s none any any of the phones… sigh. I have officially failed […]
{almost} Wordless Wednesday – slightly plump baby
January 24, 2012 By 27 Comments
I have had a fairly uneventful week which means have absolutely no good photos to share for WW! As I was aimlessly searching, I ran across a baby pic of me. I was a chubby baby. And let’s face it, a kind of an ugly baby. My mom says to blame it on my dad and […]

How was your week? Busy yet uneventful here. I’m still having fun with my project365 (366) and have decided that since I am no photographer, I will just wing it when it comes to making sure I get that needed daily image. Also, I have decided to change how I number the photos and instead […]
Do you notice anything wrong with this picture?

Have you ever had one of those really dumb moments when you do some utterly stupid and realize it at the exact moment that it’s happening? Umm… some days are just not worth waking up for. Like today. Is it Monday? Can I just go back to bed? Also, my foot and my leg are […]

The holiday rush is over with and we are in the midst of the long dark days of winter. This makes it the perfect time to do some online shopping for those basic necessities we had put off buying before Christmas! That means we need coats, gloves and boots! For some reason, these items are […]
