November brings with it a certain nip in the air that reminds me winter is quickly approaching, but it’s also the month that has brought the most joyous memory of giving birth to Cody and also the most painful memory of sitting at my Dad’s bedside as he took his last breath. This all should probably give me plenty to […]

I know I’ve mentioned the huge event(s) that’s going to happen on November 23rd, but this just might be the most fun of all.
40 Days

I’m not sure if you’re aware of the totally awesome event(s) that will be occurring in just forty days from now. Like, I’m talking hugely big deal of the most fuzzy celebratory kind. As in, three really big happenings all on the very same day. No, it’s not yet another release of a new phone by […]
When apple picking leads to planking

When Cody and Nick were little we spent many hours at the playground. I loved to watch them run (and sometimes tumble) and giggle, climb and slide, swing and scream their little heads off practice their outdoor voices, all while absorbing the sunshine and fresh air.

We’ve recently found ourselves with a lot more time to spend together as a family, especially on the weekends. While the reason for this has caused a great deal of stress, I also realize we have to take advantage of it and enjoy every chance we can to spend time together. The tricky part is […]
He might never get a driver’s license

Yesterday as I was walking with one of our dogs a local driving school’s vehicle went past with a student in the driver’s seat. This happens pretty often since we live in the middle of town and pretty close to the high school and I’ve never really thought much of it, but now I’m actually beginning to […]
Cody rode his first roller coaster and I survived
July 27, 2011 · by · 4 Comments
Ever since I can remember, Cody has had a love for roller coasters. From the first moments he began stroking keys on a computer, he was building roller coasters with various software, his first favorite being Ultimate Ride Coaster: Disney Edition. Combining his love for all things Disney and a computer program where he could […]
