A couple of weeks ago, Hayden participated in the Heritage Festival at her school. The kids learned 5 songs to sing all together, and the elementary kids also put on a short skit. While Hayden and her class participated in the show, we were not able to actually see her sing, so Sam asked her…
Yesterday, I realized that we had some apples in the fridge that just weren’t going to be good for eating, so instead of tossing them or making a “sugar-added” dessert…. Camryn and I made slow cooker applesauce! We started by peeling the apples. It was the first time that Camryn used a peeler. She had so…
And, just like that, summer is over and it’s back to school! Today was Camryn’s first day in Ms. Acres first grade class. She woke up quite cheery and excited. After breakfast, she sheepishly asked if she could wear a dress – to which I responded “Of course.” She thought she would have to convince…
{Sincere apologies for this taking so long… I’ve been wanting to go through the pictures and forgot that I hadn’t posted the text} A mere four days after we got home from our California trip, it was time to pack up again, this time heading North! My sister, Tammi, got married on Sunday August 5th!…

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy Disney birthday to me! Got a bit of a later start this morning, mostly because the girls were tired and it was tough to get them going… But it was my birthday and I had a plan! Sam and I decided that we were going to…
This morning was our MAGIC MORNING! Unfortunately, after a late night on Monday – it was rather difficult to wake up with the alarm clock. We managed to get everyone dressed and out the door in time to be in line before the 7am gate opening – I was shocked! First on the docket was…
Toontown Morning Madness beckoned us to start our first full day at the park. I went downstairs and picked up breakfast from Starbucks to eat in the room as we got ready, and we were out the door by 7:30am. Shuttle got us to the park and we went through security – at that time the…
