Wow…it’s been over a year. I suppose I have some catching up to do! First things first…life has been crazy. The adoption process has been put on hold, and Scott and I have both been stretched beyond what we can handle on our own. I know, I know…many Christians out there say that God won’t [...]

I had quite the shopping experience at Costco today. I’ll try to blog about that tomorrow. But today, I am proud to say that I was able to purchase 2 24-packs of redbull for only $23 per pack thanks to the 2 $8 off coupons I got in the mail! Woo hoo! Even the baby [...]

So, Scott and I exchanged vows in November of 1997, and along with gaining each other, we also got to bring adorable, lively, little Dwight with us on our move up to Washington state the day after our wedding which we had later in December. Now Dwight was a fairly good kid, but I have to [...]

Scott told me I needed to get off Suzy’s site and blog more. I suppose I have been distracted lately… But anyway, let me get caught up here. Saturday night Scott treated me to a special night out. (Extra points for Scott for continuing to spoil his wife!) We called our babysitter, got dressed up [...]

I always wondered why families did it. Why do moms take their sick kids out when they should be at home recovering? Shouldn’t they let them recover in the comfort of their own home? Well, now I know. Two months of near-constant sickness and now I get why sometimes you just have to push through [...]

Scott made it home today from the airport. Only he didn’t pull up in the minivan he originally drove to the airport. Instead, I watched another woman pull out of our driveway as he made his way up to the house. This woman gave my husband a ride home, because about a mile and a half [...]
