Summer is almost gone. The boys will actually start school a week from Monday. I feel a small twinge of guilt because we haven’t been able to find any time to take a vacation together this summer. A lot of other events have taken place though:
Two weddings – nieces on both sides of our families [...]
It’s hard to believe another year has come and gone. It seems like it wasn’t that long ago I was packing up these bins to store them away.
But there I was the weekend after Thanksgiving, dragging them all out again and trying to get the house ready for BooMama’s Tour of Homes.
I had plenty of [...]
On Saturday, Sis and I spent the day enjoying our local holiday Tour of Homes. When I called earlier in the week to ask Sis if she wanted to accompany me on this little outing, she responded, “Sure, I’m up for coveting other people’s houses.”

My readership has increased by one.
My dog, Ellie, spent the afternoon reading my blog. She was going to leave a comment, but evidently she was left speechless.
In case you didn’t hear how Ellie became a part of our family, or you’ve just forgotten, you can (re) read the story here.
I was reminded by one of my dedicated readers that I have been neglecting my blog. Thanks, Lisa!
I actually have been recovering from a week of chaperoning at high school summer camp. I have a lot to write about, I just haven’t had the time to sit down and get it down on [...]
