Lovin' Life with our Boys. Saturday, March 15, 2014. Better Late than Never - Latham's 5th Birthday. I am working at getting caught up with blog posts, so bear with me. This and the next post will not be in chronological order; I was going to just continue on from December 2013, but then I realized I had totally forgotten to post about Latham's recent birthday which is in the middle of November. Oops, my bad! Snack time at preschool, and Finnian was excited to sit and eat cupcakes with the big kids.

http://mcloughlinblog.blogspot.com/2014/10/finnian-star-of-week-and-bellewood.html
Lovin' Life with our Boys. Tuesday, October 14, 2014. Finnian - The Star of the Week, and Bellewood Acres Field Trip. Finnian was the Star of the Week at Preschool last week, and he was very excited for it. I had to make a poster, and then he presented it to his class. All week hew kept asking me if he was still the Star of the Week. Yesterday, the preschool had a Field Trip to Bellewood Acres, a local apple farm. Photo op at the front door of the Bellewood Acres' distillery/café/shop. After the tour was...

Lovin' Life with our Boys. Thursday, August 29, 2013. Family Vacation to Oroville, Washington - August 2013. We have just come back from a family vacation to Oroville, Washington. The city is right on the US/Canada border (Osoyoos, BC is directly north), and the southern end of Lake Osoyoos is on the US side of the border. Collin rented us a 3-bedroom, 3 bathroom house right on the lake, and we had a great week-long family vacation. We spent hours in the water. An old water pump. We also visited the near...

Lovin' Life with our Boys. Tuesday, October 14, 2014. Yes, another lawn mowing post. Collin has another helper, but this one actually helps! We got a second lawn mower a few weeks ago, and Collin taught Ronan how to drive the old one. They can now get the lawn done in record time! Ronan is a responsible 8-year old, and he takes his new responsibility very seriously! Posted by McLoughlin Blog. All the best to your family! Kristina Cobb @ Dennys Lawn and Garden.

Lovin' Life with our Boys. Friday, August 8, 2014. Odds 'n Ends II. There are always pictures that I would love to share that don't necessarily "fit" with other pictures, so I'll lump them all together to create a blog post. Here they are: the. When the weather got nicer out, the middles (Finnian and Latham) enjoyed picnics out on the patio. These promptly stopped when Collin voiced concern regarding food on the patio equaling ants on the patio. Finnian's eyes were huge. I laughed out loud when I found F...

Lovin' Life with our Boys. Monday, October 14, 2013. Random-ness with Latham and Finnian. With Ronan in school full-time and Vaughn still sleeping much of the time, my days are largely spent with only Finnian and Latham. They keep life interesting, to say the least. When I look at this picture, I wonder what in the world possessed him to do this to his pjs. Seriously buddy, why did you decide to hike up your pants and stick your arms down through them? Love the pose though. Posted by McLoughlin Blog.

McLoughlin Blog: Paul McCartney Concert - October 2014
http://mcloughlinblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/paul-mccartney-concert-october-2014.html
Lovin' Life with our Boys. Thursday, April 16, 2015. Paul McCartney Concert - October 2014. In October 2014 I crossed an item off my bucket list - I saw Paul McCartney in concert! The Woolworth Building with the original façade. The outside of the building looks exactly the way it did 50 years ago when four black college students started the lunch counter sit-in movement that swept the South. The iconic photo of the sit-in participants.. Mom and I found a little lunch place after the museum. Pieces of o...

McLoughlin Blog: September 2013
http://mcloughlinblog.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Lovin' Life with our Boys. Saturday, September 28, 2013. Is the bestest month in the whole year, in my opinion. Not only do the days get a little colder and crisper, the leaves turn all sorts of wonderful colors, and school starts, but it's also the month of my birthday! Here are some pictures of our September:. We now have a second grader! Ronan was excited to start school again. Daddy was in New Zealand on a business trip, so he missed our annual first-day-of-school photos while waiting for the bus.

McLoughlin Blog: December 2013
http://mcloughlinblog.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Lovin' Life with our Boys. Thursday, December 19, 2013. Latham's preschool wrapped up the month with a Christmas program last Friday, and Ronan's school concert was today. In his program, Latham played the part of the 1st Wiseman in a re-telling of the Christmas story. I went "backstage" before the program started to get him ready. He was really excited and proud of his role. He wanted a picture with his best friend. A shout-out to all the Daddies and Mommies! Vaughn waiting for the concert to start.

Lovin' Life with our Boys. Thursday, May 15, 2014. Collin and I were fortunate enough to spend ten days in Japan last month. It was an amazing trip to a beautiful country, and Collin and I enjoyed spending time together, just the two of us, with no children! We flew in separately, and after meeting up in Tokyo, we began our adventure! The smoke in the middle of the picture is coming from a huge incense burner. People would approach the smoke and fan it towards themselves. These paper lanterns were huge!
