Women’s Retreat with Martha Peace

This was one of those times that I needed a retreat.  I caught Paula in the hall at church one day and begged her to go with me.  Tears may have been involved.  How could she say no? Upon arrival I got stuck in the revolving door with someone pushing forward and my Nikon, of… [continue reading]

Marriage and Music

My husband and I couldn’t be more different in our taste in music and how we like to enjoy it.  He likes loud screaming music among other rocky styles.  I can’t even understand the words, and with a house full of noise, it’s just more noise. When he blares his music, I try to stand… [continue reading]

How Do I Love Thee? Let Me Count the Ways.

In honor of Valentine’s day I’d like to share a few things that I appreciate about my husband.  This list is not exhaustive or in any particular order. 1. When I crawl into bed after he’s already asleep, he says, “You awesome woman,” or some such variation -almost every time! 2.  He likes to take… [continue reading]

Our Honeymoon: The Disney Parks, A Day of Rest and A Must Have Coke

The beginning is located here!

Our Honeymoon Part 2: So we got to Florida.  I had always heard people say never, ever go to Orlando for your honeymoon.  Why is it that unmarried people do not listen to married people’s advice?  I thought that since it was the second… [continue reading]

Our Honeymoon: The Poconos and the First Fight

Start at the Beginning: How I Met My Man Our Honeymoon Part 1 My dad always said, “Love is blind and marriage is the eye opener.”  I always liked that saying–until I got married!

Where is my husband?

I had put forth extra effort and was so happy to finally get the kids to AWANA on time one  Sunday evening.  As we parted ways, Jason taking the older two and I taking the little two, I said with a wink, “Wouldn’t it be nice to go out?” I left Grace and Jason Jr…. [continue reading]

Marriage, Sin, and Laughter

While riding in the van on our trip to Nebraska Jason looked over at me and said, “How did I marry someone as wonderful as you?” “I must have sinned.”  It’s my standard answer, but it makes him laugh every time.  I like to remind him that it wouldn’t be funny if it weren’t for… [continue reading]

A Few of my Favorites from 2010

My favorite movie that I watched in 2010 was Ramona and Beezus.  I really didn’t expect to like it that much.  I love the Ramona books by Beverly Cleary and a movie rarely does justice to the book.  I thought the movie was enough different than the books that I really liked it for itself. … [continue reading]

So we did make it, but we haven't flown since!

If you’d like to start at the beginning of the story click here. We got to Denver and dashed to make our connecting flight.  With a little time to spare, Jason, feeling sorry for the kids who hadn’t eaten, went and bought a banana  right before boarding.  Of course, they wouldn’t eat it, so here… [continue reading]
