We have spent the last TWO weeks in North Carolina on vacation. I can’t tell you how AWESOME it is to see my parents, brother and a sister, my cute nieces and nephew….and just lounge on the couch. I haven’t done a DARN thing (totally said in my most Southern Accent). Take a look at(…)
It has been a truly LONG year for our family. As a family we moved from a small coastal town in Washington to Reno, NV (rain to sun). I personally had a hernia repair and then my gall bladder taken out. My husband was diagnosed with colon cancer and then had to have surgery on(…)

This is Eli. He’s our 9 year old middle child. He is the smartest kiddo EVER…and always making us laugh. With our recent move to Reno…we’re still unpacking boxes and getting settled in. As if keeping the house clean while unpacking (and living with THREE boys) wasn’t enough…Eli asked if we could decorate his(…)
