Must Be Fall!
Fall has really crept up on us this year. It’s first moments seemed to interrupt our summer bliss, and these later days have been accompanied with snappy temps and blustery winds and rains. But we have squeaked in a couple of our favorite stops. A Sabbath afternoon with Nana and Continue Reading
Rocky Sum-Up
We took an absolutely fantastic week plus trek out to Estes Park, Colorado this August. Without much ado… here are a few sample pages, pics and a link a mountain of other pics here :). It was truly a trip to remember. The boys still talk about it almost every Continue Reading
Speed, Brown and Family Fun– all for you, Little Two
Aidan woke up from his nap in his typical groggy, clingy state, so as a birthday treat Muma took him downstairs to have his gummies and watch his favorite video “My Favorite Pets” in hopes that he’d come upstairs his chipper self ready for partytime! Indeed. With Grammy and Grampapa, Continue Reading
A Family Easter
It so happened that everyone had the weekend off this year so we headed over to Nana’s for some Easter Sunday festivities. Nana cooked a lovely brunch with her favorite egg casserole, hash browns, fruits & yogurts, links & patties, juices of various flavors and a lovely setting. Muma and Continue Reading
This little boy is four!
Well, it’s hard to believe how quickly time flies in a year, and never seemingly so fast as from birthday to birthday. Alexander is so entirely such a little boy now, riding his two-wheel birthday bike (still with training-wheels of course), singing a million songs, and such a little helper Continue Reading
Baking, and Frosting, and Sprinkling– oh my!
We’ve had a good baking week this week. Sunday Alexander and Muma made her favorite Linzer cookies– happy little jam filled stars cookies with cloves, cinnamon, and pecans. They look like this (though I didn’t take a picture of mine before we ate most of them :0 !) Tuesday, after Continue Reading
Three Cedars Farm
This Sunday, we took a little jaunt to check out Three Cedars Farm. We drive by it on the way to church, and with good reviews from a couple of friends, I was curious to check it out. It turned out to be a surprisingly delightful afternoon, with tons to Continue Reading
Fall in the Forest- a spontaneous “welcome fall” event.
It was a couple of Thursdays ago when Alexander came up to me after several minutes of playing by himself (gasp!) and asked. “Muma- what can we do?” “I don’t know, what would you like to do?” “We should have a party!” We occasionally have little pretend birthday parties for Continue Reading
Going on an Egg Hunt
It was a pretty quiet Easter Sunday for us. No fancy dinners or celebrations, but we were able to catch Nana in between IHN duties and so we headed over to her house for our fun little egg hunt. Serena had deco’ed a dozen eggs ‘inspired by Martha’ the night Continue Reading
