Dial Family Blog: Last Hurrah
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/last-hurrah.html
Monday, January 2, 2012. I know. I know. It's so shocking. Krista actually has to play blog catch up. I am usually so on top of blogging. But alas.it happens even to the best of us. Ha! Way back in 2011 ( haha. Our neighborhood homeowners association asked us to do one last hurrah just before we moved. (Or really- just before we THOUGHT we were moving. Before our move got extended.) Us Dials- we are always suckers for hurrahs. And definitely we are always up for throwing hurrahs. :). The one that says, '...

Dial Family Blog: Mad Gab
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012/02/mad-gab.html
Sunday, February 12, 2012. Have you ever played that game called Mad Gab? They give you things to read from a card to your team and your team has to try to figure out what the phrase or word is? Like here's an example on their website:. You just keep saying it fast and trying to figure out what the phrase is. In this case- the answer is:. Do I know you? Caleb is a good reader and absolutely loves reading and spelling! As I listen to him sound out words- it seems SO OBVIOUS what the word is! Talking to Ch...

Dial Family Blog: May 2012
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 6, 2012. Manila Sunday (like a Vanilla Sundae). With no shortage of culture, I'm amazed at the experiences that encompass me and yet, I'm eager to wrap it up and go home. Maybe it's because I risk my life with each ride I take away from the hotel. Or maybe it's because Nicolas Cage is the face for Mont Blanc.I don't know. All I know is that Thursday is in no hurry to get here, and that bugs me. See you Thursday, US of A, in all your indoor plumbing glory! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mom, look...

Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Two more posts. I am on a roll! For his birthday, I got Chris tickets to see Itzhack Perlman. Shhhhh.to be honest, I really didn't know much about him. But Chris had mentioned him a time or two (or ten) so I thought.what the heck.sounds like a good birthday present. Well. I hit the birthday present JACKPOT! Chris was SOOOO excited. (I love it when I accidentally hit that jackpot. :). Whatever.just go with it! When he found out he actually got to MEET him! Okand maybe, just MAYBE ...

Dial Family Blog: December 2011
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 1, 2011. Caleb did awesome at his recent violin recital. At his first recital a few months ago, Caleb was feeling super shy. Luckily, I was part of his performance so I got to go up with him and that definitely helped. But I really wasn't sure if he was going to get up and perform. What a difference a few months make. You know that game called Balderdash? It's that game where each person makes up a definition to an obscure word and then you try to guess whose is correct? New flooring, ...

Dial Family Blog: The Perfect Storm
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012/02/perfect-storm.html
Thursday, February 2, 2012. Ugh How can you move less than 10 miles away and have it disrupt your life so much? Our move. It was crazy busy. But you already know that. Next! So we move- then Chris travels for 3 out of 4 weeks. Caleb starts a new school. First day- total success! So we have a house full of boxes, the boys are sleeping in new rooms, Chris is traveling, Caleb is not liking his new school, and then he gets croup and he will not take his medicine without a big struggle. But we also miss our f...

Dial Family Blog: Christmas in August
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/christmas-in-may.html
Thursday, August 16, 2012. As inI am just getting around to blogging about Christmas- in August. :) It was so wonderful to celebrate Christmas in our new house! Soon after we moved here I became a room mom for Caleb's new classroom. So fun. I was in charge of a craft for the winter party. I decided to have them make these marshmallow snowmen. Thanks for the idea, Sue! We also did a gingerbread house as a family- see a previous post. We had several encounters with Santa this year. One at Chick-fil-a.

Dial Family Blog: February 2012

Sunday, February 12, 2012. Please use extreme caution when you are untangling strands of lights. If you're not careful, the plug, as seen here:. Can suddenly take on a life of it's own and fly up and take a chunk out of your eye. Then you would have to ignore your important and long to-do list that you just made for the day and instead spend 4 hours in the ER. Because of course this can only happen on a Saturday of a three day weekend. But luckily, if this did happen- apparently eyes heal amazingly fast&...

Dial Family Blog: April 2011
http://dialfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 25, 2011. Lately, I've been having a hard time with something- the fact that my boys are growing up so fast. It seriously stinks. Yet each and every day and every new milestone is so fun. How can it be so bittersweet? The other day we were looking at old pictures and videos. It made me so teary eyed. I couldn't believe how young Caleb and Carson were! When did they grow up? How is it that time is flying by so fast? And it totally fit how I was feeling today. (Thanks, Brandy! Children's Thea...
