Making Memories
Friday was one of those days I’ll remember for a very long time. The kind of day that wasn’t terribly uncommon when the kids were younger – back when we could say, We’re going to go see this movie or hike that trail or go on a picnic, or whatever and the announcement would be…
Read More17 Again
Actually 17 for the first time. Taylor is 17 today. Where have the years gone? I seriously don’t know. I do know this, though. Todd and I have shared 17 years of nearly all good with him. And the not so good? Not so bad. We have been truly blessed. I wish I could say…

My poor mother had to call me today because I haven’t been keeping up with my blog so she didn’t know what was going on with me. Sadder words have never been typed! So I’m going to give you a bit of random… * * * We had Chinese food the other day and check…
Read MoreHAPPY BIRTHDAY, DADDY!!
Today is my dad’s birthday. Oh how I wish I could take my motley crew and impose upon my folks to help celebrate another milestone. Instead I’m just gonna talk about him (in past tense just because I’m thinking back to when I was a kid) a little bit. I’ve always seen my dad as…
Read MoreThe Whole Work Thing
Nearly 14 years ago when Todd and I decided to take the leap of faith and have me quit work it was a scary, scary thing. Taylor was three and Katie was a baby and financially it probably wasn’t the smartest thing to do. It was the exact right thing to do for the family,…

I have so much to tell you all. SO MUCH! But I’m headed out the door again to meet up with the Chicas in Lancaster. PEACE OUT!!
Read MoreVICTORY!!
A month or so ago I told you about some folks who were in jeopardy of losing their home – The “The Just Plain Wrong” portion of The Good, The Bad, and the Just Plain Wrong. Last night the Township Supervisors voted unanimously for a resolution to ban the condemnation of these two properties for…
Read MoreA Good Day??
I think today was a pretty good day despite the fact we decided to attend the new 8:00 service this morning. We’ve been going to the 11:30 service from the beginning, but now that we’ve outgrown our parking lot and building and need to spread out the attendance, the church has added a fourth service…
Read MoreThe Good, The Bad, and the Just Plain Wrong
THE GOOD This morning was the women’s brunch at church. It was, as usual, awesome. I always come away feeling so… so… oh, I don’t know. Pumped. Stoked. Charged. Psyched. Wanting more. (Beans – I’m so sad you weren’t there! I missed you!!) Thankfully, there is plenty more to come. And plenty more for me…
Read MoreHAPPY WEEKEND!!
So? How is everybody? Big plans for the weekend? I know some of you on the Gulf are taking a forced get away. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Please be safe! I’ve got an awesome weekend planned. I feel bad, too, because when I talked to my mom yesterday I told…
