Beautiful Calling

Cowboys and fairies; every day is magical with these two! Happy Wordless Wednesday

The children received a package in the mail from their GiGi the other day. Inside? Bubble guns; the children were over-the-moon excited. We also got several refills; when they run out, we’ll use dish soap. They’ll be having a lot of good clean fun this summer. {ha ha!} Happy Wordless Wednesday

Friday May 20th was the start of the long weekend and a hot, sunny day. We pulled out the pool {a curbside garbage day find – thanks mom!} and had a little fun. There was shrieking and jumping and fun – fun – fun for a couple hours and then this is what arrived at [...]

At Christmas my sister, her husband, my nephews and my parents all came over for Christmas Eve. We had balloons, a potluck dinner, presents and fun. We also had a Skype call with my brother, sister-in-law and little niece. This is them on the top in the photo and all our crazy family here on [...]
