Happy 8th Birthday Grace!

Eight years old!  It’s hard to believe that Grace is eight!  I’ve always heard similar things come from the mouths of moms and now it’s me saying them over and over.  She has been excited to turn eight because that’s the age I begin overnight Mommy and Me days with my girls.  We plan one… [continue reading]

End of Basketball Season

The end of basketball season for the girls was bitter sweet.  I loved going to each of their games and cheering them on.  It was so fun to see how much learned in just a few short weeks.  But it was an extremely busy time too with practice and games three nights out of the… [continue reading]

Girls Day Out

As it happened one of our homeschool co-ops was canceled for the day, but the boy’s Mom’s Day Out was still on.  I didn’t tell the girls what I had planned.  I wanted it to be a surprise and if something had come up then no one would have been disappointed.  But all went well… [continue reading]

A new season of Upward Basketball

Grandpa came to see the girl’s first game of the year.  I thought it was so sweet for him to come and cheer them on.  It is an incredibly busy season with practice and games taking three days a week, but the season is only six weeks long.  So it will be fun, crazy, and… [continue reading]

Kid Decorated Christmas Tree at Grandma’s House

My mom had a wonderful idea, that I think would be great for lots of moms and grandparents, when we stayed at her home.  She had just gotten home from a long trip and was very tired and didn’t feel up to putting all the Christmas decor up.  Also when I talked to her I… [continue reading]

School Christmas Program

One of the things I love about the kids being able to go to a one day a week homeschool school is that they get to do things like participate in plays or musicals.  This years program was really cute.  For the first time Faith had some speaking parts and she was so excited.  She… [continue reading]

Girl Time

Over the month of December our Classical Conversations Community doesn’t meet, but where the boys go to Mom’s Day Out still meets for the first two weeks of December.  So that gave us girls two Tuesdays without the little boys.  On the first Tuesday we spent the entire day cleaning out the girls rooms.  I… [continue reading]

Imaginative Crafting Box

I am not a crafty mom.  I’m just not.  Drawing and coloring of any kind is on the top of my least favorite things to do list, right up there with sewing.  But my kids love all things crafty, and I think that’s great.  As a non crafty mom I do facilitate their craftiness.  See… [continue reading]

Time for a hair cut

Grace’s hair had begun to drive me crazy!  It had crossed that line in length to where she would wake up with it tangled every morning.  She didn’t like to brush it and she didn’t particularly like to have it brushed.  Lately it had been more than once that I got to church, sat behind… [continue reading]
