On the road again (last weekend). This time in the beautiful white mountains of New Hampshire. 24 hours of driving, 1000 stairs, lots of dizziness and 294 pictures later… I my children didn’t have nearly enough patience for me to finish editing the hundreds of pictures from our adventure, but you check out […]

We’re trying to make the most of what’s left of summer. Earlier this week, we met some friends at a tire park.* *tire park=park with a lot of recycled tires We’ve been chasing flies around the house with a fly swatter trying to swat them enough to stun them but not kill them. Not because […]

Addicted
It’s deals like this that make me addicted to dealfinding and couponing. You didn’t know those could be verbs, did you? It’s not my ambition to have a great-deal-finding-blog (as many do), but I’m totally into taking advantage of the deals others post. But sometimes a deal comes along that deserves blogging. I headed to […]
Pudding
They say “proof’s in the pudding.” Here’s proof that PJ is indeed riding a bicycle (sans training wheels). I never got footage of him on the little 12″ bike that he actually learned on. We upgraded to his old Spider Man bike and put training wheels on the 12″ bike for Mia. Note: One needs 12″ training […]
