What a busy few days it has been! The weather had been holding up nicely until this morning. We had thunderstorms this morning as I took Pickle to school. When I came back home the 2 younger kids and I took a nap. When we woke up, it didn't take long to realize the power... Continue Reading →
Fall...Halloween...You can't have one without the other. So far the season has been a tad wet and muddy, but also cooling down from those sticky summer days. Monkey, in particular, loves the weather we have been having. As soon as she sees rain, she's putting her rain boots on and demanding to jump in muddy... Continue Reading →

Last night, I woke up to the sounds of thunder. Being the light sleeper that I am, it made it difficult to get a full night of sleep. During my tossing and turning, I reflected on who I was just a few years ago. I don't know when it began, but at some point in... Continue Reading →
Okay, okay, the sky is not falling (excuse the Chicken Little reference). The leaves, however, are FALLing (get it? Okay, I know, that was cheesy).
