Last night felt like a busy, but fun, start to the weekend. Asher had received an invite to play laser tag right after school at a local bowling alley with the 5 other boys in his school cohort (same boys that are together all day, every day- plus masked). He was really happy to get… Continue reading A fun start to the weekend
It's been a nice last few days. Some sunny weather, got my 2nd dose of vaccine (no side effects with either, except maybe a tiny headache last night?), some much needed cleaning, soccer games, outside time, Mexican food.... Here's a little recap: *A lunchtime walk on Friday. I did a short 27 minute core workout… Continue reading Last couple days in pics
Hooray, hooray, today's the day! After 3 carefully spaced out, negative COVID tests, we are done with quarantine! The boys have been CLEARED to return to school and activities today!! I am grateful to both the clinic staff and school staff for helping us navigate the current and somewhat confusing post-exposure quarantine guidelines. I am… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday- Quarantine Edition
Hi!! Jumping on for two seconds to say...see ya next week! We have packed our blue suede shoes and are ready for a little less conversation, a lot more action. 😊 (So dorky. I'm sorry. Couldn't resist.) We are off to Memphis in a couple hours (driving part way tonight and will get there by… Continue reading It’s Now or Never
I've mentioned before that my husband is notoriously difficult to buy gifts for. He doesn't really have any big hobbies that require "gear" or "equipment" (no golf balls or tees to buy....doesn't really like to read....is pretty minimalistic about many things like coffee mugs, etc.....). He is also rather picky about his clothing and likes… Continue reading Birthday surprise
Oh my goodness, I am so exhausted!!! Well, I'm feeling a little more human after sleeping for 8 1/2 hours last night (significantly more than my usual amount of sleep....). I was just sitting here catching up and updating my planner a bit after a hectic last couple of days, and I can kind of… Continue reading Yay weekend
not sure the date in this pic, but at least 15 years ago!! Hahaha! I say this jokingly, because I've talked with a few people lately about that silly old phrase. "Over the hill". I remember that being a big thing when my parents turned 40- everyone celebrated 40th birthdays with black decorations and lots… Continue reading My husband is “over the hill”! 😉
Oh, sigh. Life feels heavy at the moment. COVID is hitting Ivan's close friends & family circle hard in Mexico right now. I won't go into many details, as it's not really my story to tell. But he has lost several people close to him in a short time span and it is heart breaking.… Continue reading Be happy now
One of 19 times riding Expedition Everest on this trip. Yep, definitely their favorite. I know Disney is always a hot topic in travel circles for families with kids. There are MANY websites, blogs, etc. entirely devoted to Disney, written by hard core Disney enthusiasts. Some people are seriously almost cult like in their Disney… Continue reading So, why Disney now?
Fave Christmas Eve pic of the boys + hamsters! Ok, Christmas is really over now! My parents left a bit ago, the presents are mostly put away and the festivities have ended. I'm so happy with what a wonderful Christmas we had! It was quiet and maybe could be considered uneventful for more excitable folks,… Continue reading Christmas 2020!
GRATEFUL KAE
