Saturday Fun

Instead of holding a funeral for summer today (which, technically, I was still kind of doing in my pity party in my head, but at least I didn’t say stuff out loud), we had a day filled with summer activities!
First thing this morning, I got up and at ‘em early, when Jack Henry woke me [...]

Last Day of Staycation!

(Several new recipes up on Three More Bites!)
So this is waaay overdue, but we’ve, like, been busy and stuff.
The last day of our staycation was Wednesday, and overnight Tuesday, Jack Henry developed a bit of a croupy-sounding cough (that thankfully, didn’t last) to go with his double ear infection (which is backwards, it usually happens [...]

We, Like, Totally Almost Met the J*nas Br*thers Today.

* to prevent search engines from sending traffic my way for this post!
Though real life kinda got in the way of staycation morning #3, we still had a great day!  Jack Henry does have a double ear infection (big bummer) and so this time we’re doing an oral antibiotic combined with his ear drops, which [...]

Staycation, Part 1

Woo-hoo!  Staycation is finally here.  The boys were so excited for yesterday to get here, and so were we.
We started our afternoon at The Infield, where we mini-golfed, rode bumper boats, and drove go-karts.  It was SO much fun to be a part of making a year-long dream come true for Bennett, what with the [...]

Vacationing with Toddlers is Fun!

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!

Just kidding…this picture is misleading. We’re actually having a fabulous time! Home now for napping (2 out of 3 kids napped…the one who really needed one did not, of course), baths, and unpacking from our hotel stay, and then off for an evening of fun!
More to [...]

Ah, Summertime.

Because it would take too long to upload these pictures individually, here’s a little gallery shot at what we’ve been up to the last week or so! The heatwave is over (for a while, at least), and I have to say that the last 11 days of insanely ridiculous heat have made me contemplate [...]

Impromptu Zoo Day!

I woke up this morning and realized a) it’s going to be a gorgeous day and b) it’s the last morning we have free before Luke starts summer school on Monday (which is only 8-10am, but still), so we should go to the zoo (aka the best zoo in all the land)! We have [...]

A Little Structure for Summer

I started writing this a few days ago but hadn’t finished it – then, I saw Jill Savage’s post today and decided I’d finish it up! She has very similar ideas for summer, but her kids are older so it’s nice to read about what future summers might look like…
I’m all for summer fun, [...]
