Life Was A Beach…

but I’m glad to be back home.
We left last Thursday for Myrtle Beach. Scott’s company paid for him and several co-workers to attend a convention there from Thursday thru Saturday. Once again, I didn’t have time to blog anything about my departure. I hate it when I’m rushed!
Cool thing is, the company paid for a [...]

Stopping the Stop

Scott decided the older boys needed some fresh air after this morning’s drama. So, before I left for my appointment, I gave them his message – go weed the front yard, driveway, gardens, etc.
Would you believe that they not only were excited to leave their room, but they also had a great attitude about [...]

STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!

I confess I’m not a morning person, but nothing irritates me more than to wake up and have to deal with my older boys arguing. Do you know how many times I’ve heard the word “Stop” this morning?

Last night I played the heathen. I skipped our Saturday night (and only weekly service) while Scott took the boys to church.

Kids Say the Darndest Things…

So my kids have said a few cute or (not-so-cute but still funny) things lately…here are some to note: (Don’t worry, I didn’t go into a whole lot of detail on the first one).
On hemorrhoids
Last night Scott bought the kids their own packs of gum. I’d just gotten out of the shower, dressed and walked [...]

The Denny’s Disaster

So it wasn’t all that bad…but try telling that to a family who was starving…who hadn’t eaten breakfast yet…and it was nearly 1 p.m.!
We woke up and finished packing up/loading the car Saturday morning. We had to check out of the Condo on the Island by 10:00 a.m. so we gave ourselves 2 hours to [...]

The Great Escape

So we took off for vacation. Scott had originally taken this last week off, but we didn’t think we were going to get to go anywhere. So many different circumstances prevented us from getting to plan ahead, including just not being able to figure out what we were going to do or where we were [...]
