Mornings on break are the best mornings.
I love my job, I do. I mean, I REALLY love my job. But on mornings like this, when we don't set an alarm and the girls snuggle with me in the recliner. When we get ready if we want to and when we want to. When I have my coffee sitting at home instead of rushing out the door. ...
Happy (early) birthday, Max!
Max's birthday is actually in December, but I'm afraid with all the Christmas chaos, we'll miss it. In just a few short months, he has gone from this precious little puppy: to this. That smug look in the above photo? That's after he swiped Justin's ENTIRE bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich off ...
Our Southern Sled Dog (PETA, please don’t diss me!)
Max has been SO full of energy lately. Our walks/runs aren't helping at all. So the other day, while we were outside trying to work out some of that doggy energy, Justin got an idea. And it went a little like this:And this.PETA, I know this is not normal behavior. I also know ...
Introducing Max
I just realized I hadn't introduced our new family member to blogland yet. And he has been a part of our family for a whole week already. So, here is Max: He is the puppy of a mutt, that we chose to call Spot, who came up to our house when we still lived at the farm. Spot is some type of ...

To The Beach and Back
No, we didn't actually make a trip to the beach this weekend, but with all the miles we put in with trips from the old house to the new, we probably racked up the same number of road miles. "To the beach and back" is Libby's new way of saying she loves you a lot. She'll look up and smile ...
It’s Moving Week!!
We have been packing like crazy the last few days, getting everything ready to move over into our new house. I have had some really super helpers....It's a little sad how happy it makes me to see all those boxes in my floor.... organized and neat. Everything has been cleaned out and is ...
Friday Free-For-All
It's been awhile since I've done a wrap-up post, and boy do I have a lot to catch up on!! Kyndall is sailing right along in first grade, loving every single second. Libby is treading water in Pre-K... some days are great, some not so much. Shirts have been trucking along full speed, ...

VBS, a pool, and a house
Today was a fun-filled day of VBS and then swimming with friends. But the most exciting part? We met with our potential builder and talked through all the house details. I'm trying not to get my hopes up until we deal with the bank, but I have to admit, I'm a little giddy. ...
Oakley’s Spa Day
About once a year, I take Oakley for a "spa day." I call it that because if I say that awful 'g' word (you know...."groomer"), he runs and hides under the bed and will not come out. So on his annual spa day, Oakley gets his hair washed, cut, and styled (with a bow that he ...
