The Brown Life: Living in the Country
http://browntimesfour.blogspot.com/2011/06/living-in-country.html
A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Living in the Country. Even though we technically live in a suburb, with all of the wildlife we've seen lately, it feels more like the country around here and we love it! A couple of weeks ago the boys and I were trying to catch a lizard. We could hear some rustling in a bush and stood outside of it with our nets while our dog Sophie dug in there. It was very surprising when a baby rabbit is what hopped out of it! Puttin' on the G&#...

The Brown Life: June 2011

A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Thursday, June 23, 2011. Last week Grafton attended his 3rd year of VBS at our church. This year was extra-special because his cousins, Levi and Drew, also attended and we even carpooled with them some of the days. This summer I'm having my own version of VBS by attending our summer Women's Bible Study. It's nice change because we meet in smaller groups in homes instead of a large group at our church building.

The Brown Life: July 2011
http://browntimesfour.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Saturday, July 23, 2011. This summer has been filled with swimming, play dates, trips to the library, and going to the movies. However, a few weeks ago the boys and I had a day that was especially fun! We started our morning by going to the circus where a huge group of friends from church attended with us. This was their first time going and Grafton told me that it was even better than he had imagined! Thursday, July 14, 2011. This was a huge relief to me.

A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. What's in the Camera? I've been a lousy picture taker recently, which is one of the main reasons for my lack of blogging lately. Last night I looked through my camera and realized there's a hodge-podge of pictures from the last couple of weeks. Here are some of them. The same evening we celebrated our brother-in-law, Ron's birthday! We had dinner at Famous Dave's and then got some frozen yogurt for dessert. A melted cough drop.

The Brown Life: August 2010
http://browntimesfour.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Sunday, August 29, 2010. Every year the staff at our church throws a "Dream Team" party to thank all of the people who have volunteered throughout the year. Now that Vince is part of the staff we had the opportunity to help serve instead of only attend, and it was actually a lot of fun! The theme this year was State Fair and Vince I worked at the bottle toss booth. I will never do that again! Deklan picked out a cuddly puppy and I had the idea to name him ...

The Brown Life: March 2011
http://browntimesfour.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. A couple of weeks ago I hosted a playdate with a few friends and while walking them out the door I noticed a very large lizard at the top of our outside entry way (he was about 12 feet above the ground). Being the animal/bug/reptile enthusiast that Grafton is, I had to try and catch it for him. I knew I had to try to get him, but never expected this would actually work! So, we had a pet lizard for about two days. Some of the even...

A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Thursday, July 29, 2010. At the beginning of March my Nanny bought Grafton an Oscar fish because he drew her a picture of a fish for her birthday. At the time he fit nicely in the 3 gallon tank she bought for him, but five months later he had definitely outgrown it! It was the right size for Levi Oscar Bubbles (that's his full name) and it fit perfectly in the space where we wanted to put a fish tank. Wednesday, July 21, 2010. Minnesota. July 9th-11th.

The Brown Life: At the Lake
http://browntimesfour.blogspot.com/2011/07/at-lake.html
A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Thursday, July 14, 2011. Last week we took our annual trip to Minnesota. The difference this year was that Vince was not able to join us. :0(. I was nervous having to travel with the boys by myself, but they were so good! This was a huge relief to me. We didn't leave my in-laws house much, but rather spent our time fishing (I didn't realize how fun it could be), going on boat rides, and eating ice cream every evening. July 20, 2011 at 11:23 PM.

A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Tuesday, September 20, 2011. Celebrated Deklan's 3rd birthday! A few days prior to his big day we had a few family members and friends over for a train themed party. On the actual day we went out to dinner, to the library and then had frozen yogurt. Deklan picked watermelon flavored yogurt with gummy worms and rock candy on top. The days were longer in August, but we enjoyed some beautiful sunsets! The hardest part of the month is when Grafton had to get s...

A few Ramblings and Reflections from our Family. Saturday, January 22, 2011. Happy (Belated) New Year! I have had every intention of getting on here over these last three weeks and sharing pictures and stories from our recent vacation. The problem is that Vince took way better pictures than I did and I haven't taken the time to get them on my computer. Hopefully I will get to that this week! Laptops or watching TV together while I folded laundry. We also only went on two dates all year! Giving our attent...
