Life has been extremely busy lately. That’s the thing about summer. It goes more quickly each year. In May I envisioned these summer days to be spent on the porch, drinking coffee, reading and blogging away to my heart’s content. In reality I’m facing a pretty busy schedule similar to the August-May one that I’mContinue reading “Countdown to England”

Father’s Day and a Ninety Year Old Birthday Party
What a special weekend! It’s not every year that you get to spend an entire weekend celebrating Father’s Day and a 90th birthday surrounded by friends and family. This year is special for our family. My great-grandmother turned 90 on Father’s Day. We orchestrated a family cookout/pool party in honor of great-grandma. It was such aContinue reading “Father’s Day and a Ninety Year Old Birthday Party”
Another One for the Books
Another birthday has come and gone. I am now officially 25 and I feel great. As always, I was treated like royalty by my husband and family and I’m extremely grateful for the time that we spent together as a family on my big day. Truthfully, there is nothing I would rather do than getContinue reading “Another One for the Books”
Motherhood Top 5
The journey of motherhood is such a blessing. When I found out at age twenty-one that I was carrying my first child I was shocked and then extremely scared. Being so young I was still trying to figure myself out and my roles as a teacher and wife. I feared that I was too young andContinue reading “Motherhood Top 5”
The Date Jar: Week 7 (New York City Weekend!)
Originally my Date Jar series featured family friendly dates that we experienced in the Columbus Metro Area; however, with this special post I am giving details about a recent trip to NYC that my family took. We embarked early Friday morning and returned Sunday evening. The cause of the trip was to allow my husbandContinue reading “The Date Jar: Week 7 (New York City Weekend!)”
The Date Jar: Week 6 (Family Movie Date)
My favorite part about this Date Jar series is the emphasis it has put on spending more quality time with my family. For as young as a family as we are we have quite a full schedule. It would be extremely easy for us to go several weeks at a time without doing much moreContinue reading “The Date Jar: Week 6 (Family Movie Date)”
Spring Break Roundup
As I reflect on my ten day respite otherwise known as Spring Break I have nothing but positive memories and priceless moments with my daughter in which to boast. Oftentimes I suffer from a little guilt about being a working mom. I hate missing time with my daughter and truthfully that longing for spending timeContinue reading “Spring Break Roundup”

The Wait is Over
The long awaited day has arrived. I awoke this morning to a little something different in the air. Something that made me jump out of bed, select a bright colored (sweater and boot-less) outfit from my walk in closet, and hop in the shower to prepare for the day. For once I was not dreadingContinue reading “The Wait is Over”
The Date Jar: Week 3 (Family Getaway!)
Alas, the day has come where my husband comes home straight after work and the late weeknight basketball games are no more. His basketball coaching season came to a close a little over a week ago. Although I support him in all he does, a little part of me is excited that his season endedContinue reading “The Date Jar: Week 3 (Family Getaway!)”
