A Different Easter

We knew it was going to be a different kind of Easter. With Mom gone, the center of all holidays, we would have to cope with missing her and making new memories. Even though in some past Easters I have been in Australia, the internet and phone calls didn’t make...

Mint Tasting

Some people have wine tasting, cheese tasting…on Pop Pop’s return from Australia, we had mint tasting around our table. Silas and Rubí are mint connoisseurs at this point. My grandchildren will be your best friend for a bag of mints. 🙂   So we took the children outside.

A Walk Around the Neighborhood

Most of my morning chores done and not quite ready for lunch, I decided since it wasn’t a hot day, I would take a walk. I grabbed my camera of course to document the walk, and hoping to be ready for anything. As I left the driveway, I saw our...

A Day at the Park with Cameron

A child in the house is such a joy, and once a week we get to enjoy Cammy. He is like the center of the universe each Wednesday. It has rained every day for the last….forever. It continues to rain as I blog this. However, this morning it was only...

Dodgeball 2

No More Dodge ball and Hopscotch?

“Barb, tell Mr. King we want to go play dodge ball.” My classmates seemed to think I was a teacher’s pet and could influence the teacher to let us out of class early for a game of dodge ball. We had hours and hours of fun in our school playground,...
