Summer Brings Joy and Sadness
Today begins the glorious days of summer for our family. This year we have a bountiful 88 days of summer. Now, of course, a good number of those days include drumline practice, cross country runs, and other various camps. But, for the most part, we have a pretty low-key summer ahead of us. I can’t…

It’s been six weeks since my last Sunday Snippets post. February was a blur. We were busy nearly every evening with basketball games and practices and every weekend include an event or two as well.

Another busy week has been left in the dust. I can’t believe we are in the last week of January already! Another busy week is ahead, but today I’m slowing down and hoping to see American Sniper with some friends. I could be doing laundry, organizing our daughter’s room, cleaning, etc, etc, but I’m trying…

What a great week it was here in Iowa. Even though it is winter, the weather was manageable and we ended the week with some sunny skies and warm temps. We started our week with Reagan’s birthday and ended it with show choir and basketball. This is just the beginning of busy weekends in our…
