Foto Friday

 This was taken at our fishing day.   First fruit (literally) of the season.  This is off of a Mother’s Day gift from Mia last year.  Yummy!  Monkey see, Monkey do.  This is what I saw when I went to find Ty the other day.

Fishing Firsts

I can’t believe it’s Friday already.  I really meant to post this much earlier this week, but, well, ya know… Anyway, the kids have been very patient for the last 3 weekends while we worked in the garden so Sunday, Patrick suggested we go mini-golfing, get ice cream, and go fishing.  All three of these things […]

Lucky Blessed

Sally, if you’re reading, did you catch the title?  It’s just for you. I’ve heard lots of “You guys are so lucky…” lately. “You guys are so lucky Ty’s adjusting so well.” “You guys are so lucky Ty’s sleeping so well.” “You guys are so lucky PJ and Mia are doing so well.” “Ty’s so […]
