Over Labor Day weekend, (yeah, yeah, I’m late posting – what else is new?) the 5 of us took a road trip to see my family in League City! Jacob doesn’t get home from school until after 5, so we decided to eat dinner and take our time getting on the road to let some […]

Sorry, folks – short post today, but I think you’ll enjoy what I link you to–yes, it’s another one of my Texas Health Moms posts. I’m serious when I ask for suggestions.

Part of the time we were just too busy for me to even think about somehow […]

Did you know that my boys play baseball? (Hint: if you didn’t, you’ve been living under a rock. Seriously.) Caleb’s baseball team got a special treat last night – tickets to see the Rangers play the Orioles at the Ballpark in Arlington – and families were invited to tag along. So we did. I’ll admit, […]

For Mother’s Day, I got a most awesome gift. I got to pick a photographer and have some pictures made! Well, of course the first person I thought of was Emily Melson. She’s incredibly talented and specializes in family pictures. She’s done lots of pictures of friends’ children and families, so she was my only […]
