I can't believe it's been a month since I last published a post on here. That's not to say that I haven't been writing. Or rather, attempting to write. I've come on here at least half a dozen times, trying to gather my thoughts into some sort of coherent message. But every time, my feelings and ...
Our Polka Dot Yard, BBQ Fun, and Awesome Friends!
It's been a few days now, but I must say, we really had an amazing holiday weekend. The not-so-fun (but sort of necessary) part involved a LOT of yard work. To start, Jay wound up taking a few days off from work and had some fun on the rented skid steer so he could regrade part of our yard that ...

Sentence Per Picture Memorial Day Weekend
As I sit down on Sunday evening to type up this post, I am pretty wiped. Although we still have tomorrow before our weekend is complete, it has certainly been a busy one so far. So since I have a feeling I’m going to be sitting here snoozing not far from now, I thought I’d give you all a little ...

Memorial Day 2012: SO Much Fun!
Oh my gosh…I don’t know if I can even put into words how awesome today was. There’s lots of pictures, so let’s start with that… The first part of the day was pretty low-key. As our pals started to arrive, we all enjoyed some time in the sun, played some corn hole, sipped on a few adult ...
Continuing the Tradition
Well hello there, friends! Talk about the day getting away from me… I was surprisingly up at 7:00am this morning (without an alarm, a feat on its own) and have been on the go ever since. First things first, breakfast was necessary. I woke up starving so I didn’t waste any time on putting ...
