So let’s see, where did I leave off… Oh yes, our foggy/drizzly morning. I was initially a little unsure how the day would go, if the weather continued like this, because pretty much everything we wanted to do was outside! Fortunately, it did clear up. We got a later start to the day as a… Continue reading Day 5: White Mountains, New Hampshire

Day 2: PA to Bennington, Vermont
Yay, we made it! The first couple days were mostly just a long haul heading East, but we are officially in Vermont now. After our hotel stop Saturday night, we basically just woke up, got ready, had the “grab and go” hotel breakfast and hit the road again. I did zero driving this time around,… Continue reading Day 2: PA to Bennington, Vermont
Back from State weekend, and it’s hot
Well, that's a wrap on the State swimming weekend for Asher. This also means that his season has come to end. It's been a pretty bizarre year and a half with swim team in general, due to covid. Everything came to a total halt last spring, followed by a summer with very, very small and… Continue reading Back from State weekend, and it’s hot

JUNE goals!
I am feeling some major "new month" excitement this month, for the first time in a while. Looking back, I actually didn't even write out monthly goals really for April OR May...which, if you've been reading a while, is not really like me. The spring has just been.....a lot. I've mostly just been kind of… Continue reading JUNE goals!

Ivan's mom (my suegra, or mother-in-law) is leaving to go back to Mexico on Sunday, after spending over 2 months here in the U.S.! We picked her up from my sister-in-law's last night and took her out for pizza at a really nice local restaurant. I sent this picture to Ivan at work and said,… Continue reading La suegra is heading home 😦
Another milestone
Yesterday we experienced another milestone in our family. It was Ethan's turn to get vaccinated, since he is 12. I had scheduled the appointment for 12:40 over his lunch hour, with the promise that I would take him to lunch quick before the appointment. We really didn't have much time, and I also had a… Continue reading Another milestone
