http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2010/06/vacation-destination-four-niagara-falls.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Thursday, June 24, 2010. Vacation destination four: Niagara Falls, NY. A picture is worth a thousand words, right? Here's the short version: we went to Goat Island the first night we arrived in Niagara Falls and wandered all over the American side of the falls before eating our picnic dinner (French bread, Nutella, apples, grapes, cheese, and carrots. Yum! I hate that talkin...

http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2015/07/this-is-where-we-live.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Thursday, July 30, 2015. This is where we live. Oh man have I had some doldrums-esque days lately! And on those days I have been trying to remind myself of why I love the little town where we live (even when I wish we were living here with a job and a Ph.D! So- things I have been grateful for about our town in the last 24 hours:. The people who live in our town are so friend...

My Foreign Sky: Playing catch-up...again!
http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2015/07/playing-catch-upagain.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Also- I am really terrible at remembering to bring my camera/put the battery in the camera this summer. So many missed photo ops (Conner Prairie, I'm looking at you! Conner Prairie is a fun place. We love it! But if you have to sit in traffic somewhere, Lakeshore Drive is a pretty darn scenic place to do it! Nice to not be pregnant or nursing! The n...

My Foreign Sky: Chapter books for elementary-aged children
http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2015/06/chapter-books-for-elementary-aged.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Chapter books for elementary-aged children. Oh, this seems like such an impossible task to start narrowing these down, but try I shall! Something really important: most of these are books that I still love enough to reread as an adult. My seven-year-old is reading Martin the Warrior,. And my ten-year-old is rereading Jurassic Park. Which tells you t...

My Foreign Sky: Postpartum depression and summer plans
http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2013/06/postpartum-depression-and-summer-plans.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Thursday, June 06, 2013. Postpartum depression and summer plans. Earlier this week, I started taking antidepressants and meeting with a therapist who specializes in post-partum depression and birth trauma. Whew Got that out. In all honesty, I have been thinking about talking to a counselor for about eighteen months. I've had trouble feeling comfort when I prayed for peace.

My Foreign Sky: Depths
http://theirchronicles.blogspot.com/2014/07/depths.html
You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Tuesday, July 08, 2014. I have another blog post loaded and ready to publish with all kinds of pictures and peppy talk and whatnot. Tomorrow. Tonight is a night for journal-posting, and fair warning, this is a real downer. I wish I knew how much of my anxiety and depression stems from physical factors, and how much of it is situational. I can’t even tell you how st...I am so...

You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Tuesday, June 17, 2014. Oh, but we've been busy lately! Last week Neil was presenting at the MSEC conference in Detroit. We missed him like crazy but we were so proud of his work and the recognition he received for his research! While he was gone we worked hard to keep ourselves busy (as Abigail said, we had to do lots of things so we could forget how much we missed him!

You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Thursday, June 19, 2008. It's all fun and jams. Bet you're wishing you lived in the Midwest right about now. The weather was perfect- sunny and breezy. Perfect shorts weather without ever worrying about breaking into a sweat. The cherries were succulent and plentiful. The Goldfish were just plentiful. It was a good night. And humbled about my kitchen prowess. What a happy wo...

You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky. Saturday, June 20, 2015. Catching up on June. Oh goodness, I feel like there's a lot of catching up to do! I can't believe we are already three weeks into summer vacation- I feel like we have spent so much time just being sick! And now three of the kids have sore throats- me too- darn it! Oops Basically it was like this. Plus three more kids (and a lot more bugs! And darn it...
