On Friday I gave a little hint as to what The Hubby and I were going to be as part of our family Halloween costume this year and most guessed Anna and Kristoff. Well, you were half-correct. I don’t know many men who would wear a giant Olaf costume, but it sure did make our […]

Since we have become a family of four we have done family Halloween costumes. It all started with Gwyn’s obsession with Goldilocks and the three bears, and when I came across her costume, that one was a given. Not knowing what Cal should be, I came across this matching little bear costume and thus, the […]
I admit it. I am embarrassed to admit it. But, I admit it. I shared a LONG time ago about how Cal is a Creepy Hair Hoarder. And how I thought it was cute and endearing, and only slightly creepy. Well…. he still does it. But that’s not what I am admitting, here. Instead […]
Now that we are settling into our new home and are putting things where they belong, it is clear where a few things are missing. Since we have waited to buy furniture and home decor until we were in a more permanent home, we have a blank slate to work with. Which is awesome! But, […]
I was recently tagged in a post on Facebook showing a video of two moms trying to interact and make friends. And it was all too funny and real. (See below.) It made me start to think about how hard it really is to make mom friends. Or friends, period. When I moved from Reno […]
Last week I shared how we were about to experience The Kindergarten Campout. Well, it happened. And I will start out by saying that we got in. Cue huge sigh of relief. But it didn’t go down how I expected. People were not supposed to line up until all school activities had ended for the […]
Recently, The Guncles got married. And it was fabulous. From the plum and charcoal to the Spanish flair, this wedding was carefully thought out leaving guests wondering what is next and wanting more. Cal was one of the ring bearers and these pictures depict what happened pretty well. And he’s gone! And […]
After The Hubby and I had put an offer on our house we learned about The Kingergarten Campout. THE kindergarten campout. The one you have to do if you want your kid to go to the school you are zoned for. Confusing, right? Apparently when the school was built about seven years ago it was […]
This summer I had the opportunity to step WAY out of my comfort zone. Way, way out. A group of photographers were getting together for a bohemian stylized photoshoot highlighting the incredibly beautiful paper flower headpieces made by one of the photographers, Stephanie Arieno. This was also a chance for these local photographers to connect, […]
We started off the morning with our favorite game, Backgammon. The kids have begun playing with us, rolling the dice and it is a game that has been in The Hubby’s family for many years. We hope to keep the tradition alive! And then not long after, Gwyn hit a major milestone! And we were […]
