Quick Post

I am tired and had a long day, but I wanted to make a post yet tonight.  We are currently in Estherville for Robert’s great uncle’s funeral.  We both left work early, picked up the kids, ate a quick lunch at home, packed even quicker, then hit the road at 1:30 this afternoon.  We made […]

Back to Reality

We are back from our vacation in the Dells.  It was good to get away.  The timeshare we were at wasn’t one of the best ever, but it wasn’t bad either.  I really liked having a place to retreat to and where we could  cook our own meals and not eat out so much.  We […]

Life in the Fast Lane

“Life in the fast lane Surely make you lose your mind” I feel that is my life for the next week.  Today I need to do laundry.  Tomorrow morning I pack up for a flying trip down to DeForest.  Tamara’s step-dad passed away and we are going down for the wake.  The funeral is private, […]

Families

Tonight we somehow started singing “Jump Around”.  I can’t remember how we even got started.  Robert then played the song on the stereo.  He and Laura were having a great time dancing to it.  Warren was laughing at the sight.  I was just enjoying taking it all in.  We then proceeded to play various dance […]

Weekend Recap

I honestly can’t remember a lot of my weekend. I’ll do what I can for a recap: Friday – I had my weekly morning coffee at church.  Robert stayed home with both kids so I could have a bit of a break.  After coffee was over, I went to the local strawberry patch and picked […]

Weekend Marriage

I have decided that I am not a fan of weekend marriages.  At least not being in one.  May 10-13 Robert was in Green Bay for training.  He came home Thursday night.  We had the weekend together, then I left for DeForest for a week.  I left Monday morning and came back Friday afternoon.  It […]

Getaway

I am having my own “getaway” this week.  I left Monday for DeForest and will be returning home on Friday.  It’s not totally a getaway since I do have the kids with me.  So far they are doing well.  Yesterday was the day of adjustment for Warren.  Laura adjusted pretty much right away.  Monday night […]

Easter Recap

Easter this year went really well. We made the decision to go to the sunrise service at church. We had gone a few years ago and really enjoyed it. It also allowed us to make it up to Dallas at a good time to enjoy the morning with the family. After getting up early to […]

4 More Days

I have 4 more days of work, and then I am done for a while again.  I am starting to get regular headaches that are just awful.  I don’t know what is causing them, but they really need to go away.  I am trying to figure out what it says about me that I can […]

Update Time

I’s been a while since I’ve actually done an update, so I figured it was time to do one.  Things around the house are going ok.  Laura must be in a growth spurt.  For lunch she ate a large floret of broccoli without anything on it (cheese or salt).  She actually ate it before her […]
