I am pretty sure we have the craziest nicknames ever for our children.
Olivia’s craziest nickname would have to be Livi-Skivvy. Josh likes to shorten that to Skivvies. Which means “underwear,” for those of you who aren’t British. Or pirates.
Benjamin seems to have a few more crazy nicknames than Olivia. Possibly because I am […]

Remember the $13 turkey? Even with two extra guests, we still had quite a bit of leftovers. Knowing we were going out of town soon, we bagged up the remaining turkey and put it in the freezer. So guess what we’ve been eating this week? (Hint: The same thing 95% […]

A couple weeks ago, I said I would start a series on loving what you’ve got. It’s a series to help keep me in the right frame of mind when it comes to the apartment I reside in and will most likely still be residing in for a couple (maybe even a few?) more […]

If I have the time, I’ll come back and blog what kind of craziness has been going on since we rolled in here after midnight last night this morning.
But for now I leave you with the another video - the last you’ll see around here until DSL comes in January. (I uploaded it before […]
