Pretty In Pink
Gillian had her first ballet recital with Turning Point Ballet Studio, what a breath of fresh air it was. Most of the songs that the dancers danced to were Christian Worship songs. What a wonderful way for these young girls to glorify God.
The song that Gillian danced to was The Brahms Lullaby, she was in a light pink tu-tu with a sparkly t [...]
Working on the Nature & Wildlife...
This is Gillian’s second year as an American Heritage Girl. This year she gets to wear a “real uniform” and is having fun earning her badges. I have to say, now that I am understanding everything a little better, I am enjoying it a lot more . It has been a blessing to work with Gillian on earning new badges and to watch h [...]
The Dentist Escapade
Clearly, dentists are either tolerated, loved or feared, right? Growing up I never really dreaded the dentist like so many people I know did. Most of my experiences were pretty routine with the exception of having all four of my Wisdom teeth pulled at once and a surgery to turn one of my teeth to grow upright.

Seriously!
I have heard of kids (mine included) playing with big boxes and having hours of fun with their cardboard creations. It often causes parents to scratch their head and wonder, “Why exactly do we buy toys?”
Last night my super talented and loving husband installed a new dishwasher for us and from the old one he took out [...]
First Landsharks Meet
There is nothing cuter than watching 6 year olds run. Seriously, they are just little balls of energy darting down the track. There are three categories of runners at this age.
The totally serious, who are out there to win, determination all over their faces.
The somewhat serious, who have great potential but are just having fun.
The to [...]
My Little Girl
This week we took Gillian for her first full eye exam with our favorite Optometrist, Dr. Bergamo. Gillian has been getting several headaches so we decided to start with getting her eyes checked. Although her eyes are NOT ‘bad’ there are some issues that glasses can maybe help with. She has a small astigmatism, which apparen [...]
