Chief, my husband has been mowing & bailing hay all week along with working his regular job. So it has been me & the kids basically all week & then some. Yes, I’ve had time to turn on the computer, but to form a sentence or paragraph, well, that’s a different story. Just keeping things…
three & a half
Graham. My long & lean, strong willed, three & a half year old boy. The one who started this Mommy journey for me. The one who introduced me to a world I never knew. He is my source of strength. He’s the one who makes me laugh, run, skip, fight swords, dance for rain, jump…

1 X 1 = “ONE”
Just like that. In a blink – they are ONE! I can remember many, many, moments of this past year in full detail. Some with smiles, tears, and others moments were 100% pure chaos. Other moments have faded in my memory. These two have brought pure joy & goodness to our souls. We can only…
Her First Steps!
She finally did it, and getting better everyday. Of course, we were so excited to watch her that photo taking took back seat. But here are a few of that milestone in our girl’s life. Of course, failing in between these pics & getting back up happened alot in the wee little kitchen. But she…

red, white, & blue weekend
The weekend’s weather couldn’t have been better. In fact, we were scrambling trying to find warmer clothes for the kids to wear for the morning parade on the 4th. A very cool 64* at 10am. It was unbelievable. The 4th of July = chilly & foggy. Chief & I kindof have a thing for ‘foggy…
July 4th ~ sweet memories
My dear Grandma & I. * July 4, 1980 Outside of the kids pictures – this is hands down, my most cherished photo! She was the silliest, craziest, most loving, supporting Grandma there ever was. This was taken the first weekend after she retired. Relaxed, silly, “anything goes” type of attitude is what she always…
Speaking of Farmers…
Here’s our young farmer Graham – with shoes or without, it doesn’t matter. As long as he is by the “Moo Cows” life is good! He is a happy boy all the time. But he is the happiest when he can be free to roam the countryside with his Daddy, wearing his ‘farm-pants’. Again, shoes…
