As dinner is simmering on the stove, I thought I would drop in to say hello. So, how is everyone?? I hear from some of you from time to time…and I pray for you and your families. I hope all is well in your homes. I’m feeling more nauseated by the day. I think that’s a good thing, though I’m…
Budding Violinist
Emma just completed her first term in violin lessons! She’s been playing frequently….I’ll admit I’m humming that “eggs, eggs, eggs” song, all day, on most days.
Emma’s Christmas Orament
We’ve been fortunate to find some really cute ornament kits this year! This is Emma’s Christmas tree:
Emma’s Birthday….
I *love* birthdays! (Well,those that belong to the younger folks around here, anyway. *smile*) Emma’s birthday always marks the “birthday season” in our home. I’ve been working recently to make these days extra special. I’ve added some things to our celebrations and I still have a couple of things to put together, then I’ll share the projects with all of…
My Big Girl…

Updating
It seems so long since I’ve updated this site. Dial-up is another world when you are used to high-speed internet. I can’t tell you how difficult it is do accomplish simple tasks…things like banking, using the library or just checking store hours. Websites just aren’t being made to use dial-up anymore. If you are trying to blog, or use fb,…
“Here Kitty, Kitty….”
I’m not sure she knew what was coming:
Hmmm….
I don’t know where to begin with this one… Courtney and I were trying out a new granola recipe last week from our sweet friend Betsy (Betsy, your granola is by far the BEST we’ve ever tried!! Thank you for sharing the recipe!!). I snapped a picture for a project we’re planning later this year when Emma saw the camera…
Celebrating Emma
Emma turned 5 in October. What a sweet joy she is in our home! After cake and gifts, we took everyone to the park:
