“I Broke My Leg” – and other shenanigains September 30, 2022 (timewarp from August 30, 2022) To say that our home is never dull is a severe understatement; something funny, outrageous, interesting, or unbelievable is happening all day every day and if it appears to be calm, someone will make [...]
November 28, 2020 Keep Flying High! Remember how we did a tour at Embry-Riddle University back in January? Christina told the tour guide that she was going there. She’s spent years dreaming of it. She’s focused all of her college classes at St Johns River College toward the basic degree [...]

Stages To Come February 27, 2020 Life is lived in stages, seasons, steps… whatever you call it. It’s somewhat like a roller coaster with ups and downs. Our memories are made of snippets of this fun journey called life and when I’m feeling nostalgic, I like to look back at [...]

I almost cried two years [...]
August 8, 2019 Study and Playtime Your bed. A place of rest. Calm. Peace. Unless you are a mom! I got the baby all ready, got myself all ready, even get Lucas ready for his bed! Lay down and *boom* here come the troops! Lucas does an aerial front flip [...]
Watching & Analyzing April 27, 2019 I’ve always been a watcher. I watch the world around me and (most of the time) analyze it. I look at a beautiful blue sky and my mind says “wow, how pretty,” and quickly follows with “it won’t rain for the next few hours.” [...]
