We took a long awaited trip to Pinehurst to visit Grammy and Grand Wink a couple weekends ago. We were anxious to see their new (actually quite old, historic) home in downtown Southern Pines. Before heading to their house, we met Grammy at the best park ever: Camelot. Fortunately, my friend and former colleague, Kristy [...]

I would like to blame my lack of blogging on a busy summer- but truly it could better be attributed to just plain neglect. We are enjoying the laziness of summer- in particular, not having something on our agenda each day. The kids have both participated in summer camps and the three of us have [...]

Here comes Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail…
We spent Saturday of Easter weekend in Pinehurst with Grammy, Annie, and Wink. Chris and I hid Easter eggs outside, and the kids enjoyed competing to see who could find the most jelly bean-filled eggs! It was a beautiful day and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

The kids and I just returned from our second annual girls (plus Jack) weekend at the beach. Mom and I drove down with the kids and met Malinda and Jocie (and Josh for one night) at North Myrtle. The weather was horrible (windy and cold), but it was wonderful to get away and to spend [...]

Wow, it’s been a LONG time since I have written a post here. All excuses aside, I have missed sharing a little part of our world with anyone willing to read this. From several weeks ago…
The kids and I went to Hickory with my mom to meet my dad and have some science center fun. [...]

Yesterday, we finally had the opportunity to meet Baby Mia (Monica and Matt’s precious little one). Mia is so sweet, and Emma Kate and Jack really enjoyed her! The kids and I spent the evening in Wilkes, and today we are headed to Hickory for the day.

I am writing today to remember my cousin Sara who passed yesterday. Sara was a feisty spirit- intelligent, sharp, and witty. Even after a lifelong struggle with her health, she still pressed on to do the things she enjoyed most- spending time with family and friends. We always enjoyed Sara’s company- and we knew she [...]

Yesterday, Jack’s preschool class took its first field trip across the street to the DUMC pumpkin patch. The kids listened to a spooky story and picked out small pumpkins to take home.
