We always gather on Christmas Eve to celebrate. It’s never formal, we show up in our jeans and boots, because we’re going down to the farm, there’s a chance of getting muddy. Except now I’m an adult, I can’t tell you the last time I went down to the fields and got dirty, but it’s […]

Daddy Graduated & Mommy Turned 27
Our weekend from Lboy’s Point of View: Daddy got ready for graduation! I promised Mommy that I would be on my best behavior! I was having so much fun climbing the stairs, but then graduation started.

No Friday Flip Off–Graduation & Birthday!
I was going to write a “Friday Flip Off” post. I’ve actually been writing it in my head since Tuesday. But, I’ve got too much to be happy about this weekend to dwell on the things that drove me crazy this week (it was the usual money being too tight, Christmas season being too expensive, […]

Sleep Training & the Most Helpful Blog Post

Christmas Ornaments
When I was growing up we had one of those “homey” family trees with all the homemade ornaments of kids’ hand prints or glitter star cutouts. It was an awesome tree. Every year I made sure that at the top of the tree was this little angel ornament named Katybeth (at least I think that […]

"God Hates Elizabeth Edwards"
At least God hates her according to a fanatical religious group, the Westboro Baptist Church. You actually might have heard of them, they are the creeps that stood outside of a funeral of a young man who was a soldier and died in service of this country. Though according to this group they thank God […]
