I went to bed at 7:52 p.m. last night. Although I did not fall asleep right away. I watched some Glee, which if you ask me there was a little too much Kristen Chenoweth and a show with no “Rachel” is just wrong. But hey, not my show so… I think the long walk and…
I’ve Returned…
…to home and to blogging. My weekend was wonderful, relaxing, hilarious and a little painful (I’ll explain) and just a beautiful, fun time with good friends. There’s a lot to say and many pictures to post. But some will have to wait because frankly, I’m adjusting back to reality now that my MIL and BIL…
Fated
Tim and I met at a Catholic student retreat that included a few colleges in the area. I didn’t arrive until Saturday morning because I had to work Friday night and if I’d been scheduled on Saturday, I proably wouldn’t have gone. Tim almost didn’t come to the retreat at all. If either of those…
Nine Reasons to Like Lafayette, Louisiana
I discovered BlogTrotting when Maria from Bored Mommy posted about her hometown, Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Here is my post about the city where we currently live. And if you are new to my blog – WELCOME! When my husband first came to me in the Spring of last year and said there was a good…
The 3 C’s – Candy, Cereal & Cousins
We made it to Austin in a little over 7 hours with 3 stops and very little crying. Five minutes before we “landed” in my parents driveway Little G was all like, ” I WANNA GET OUT OF HERE!!!” And so was I. But we made it safe and sound and I was ever so…
We’re Off!
So, the kids and I are leaving today for what I’m callin’ “The ‘Woah, I sure have packed our schedule full of activities and people to see in just one short week’ Tour of Texas Road Trip.” Did you get all that? Truly, I’m not sure what’s going to wear me out more – the…
WW – My Three
My three children are growing up right before my very eyes. (I know, I can hear you saying it, “Well of course they are, Elaine, that’s what children do!”) I registered The B Man for soccer last weekend. Little G uses the word “actually” correctly. Baby K smiles hugely as I come toward her to…
Love and Prayers for Haiti
As I click around my little corner of the blogo-sphere this week I feel like I’m about the only person who hasn’t said something about the tragic earthquake in Haiti. It’s not that I don’t know it happened and it’s certainly NOT that I don’t feel for the people of that nation and pray for…
Will Travel for Sweets (& Friends!)
As I drove into the city with my sweet baby girl in tow (who was a FAB-U-LOUS traveler!) I almost started crying because I miss IT. I am TOTALLY a city girl. Not a country girl, not a kinda small town girl, but a CITY GIRL. Baby K was ready for our weekend of sweets….
WW – Cousins Rock!
Grace, B Man, Catherine, Daniel, Little G If someone had told me 20 years ago that my brother Larry and I would have kids close in age that would play together like crazy and enjoy each others company immensely while eating all the forbidden foods that Grandma serves up and make a cute set on…
