Me & My Boys: November 2014
http://themartfamily.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Wednesday, November 19, 2014. This blog was originally created to keep my family in the loop on Brady. It's become my soapbox! Since I am completely uninspired on my own little challenge and frankly sometimes really do not like "putting myself out there", I am redirecting this blog to be about Brady. This smile. I hope he forever finds joy in life! He loves bowling and begged for weeks to go! Pre-bowling snack - Rice Krispie bars (only he decided he just wanted the M&M's).

Me & My Boys: June 2015
http://themartfamily.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Sunday, June 28, 2015. We had a really enjoyable weekend! Now we are off to golf although it's a little tricky since kids have to be six to be on the course and Brady is only four. :). Last day of swim lessons. He made huge improvements over the course of the week! Swimming is his thing! Hanging out Friday night and relaxing after a good workout at the gym! Espenhover Grandma (as Brady calls her) came on Saturday afternoon. It was wonderful :). Links to this post. He had...

Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. And I can’t forget this! Links to this post. Sunday, August 23, 2015. 1, His leash x 2. Yes, we are on our second leash. 2 His dog bed that we bought for our room. Stuffing ripped out, zipper torn off. I haven't thrown it away yet though because honestly it keeps him busy when he's upstairs. 3 He picks at and chews our kitchen and front entryway rugs. Not so much anymore, but at first it was constant. 4 The knobs on our kitchen drawers. 10 As pr...

Me & My Boys: April 2015
http://themartfamily.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Thursday, April 30, 2015. On Wednesday, Brady’s school had class at the Waukee Public Library. It was great - he even rode his bike "to school"! Links to this post. Wednesday, April 15, 2015. Do you think we need a shed? I can organize all I want. And yet it still looks like this. I mean why do we have four sets of golf clubs when there are only three of us living here? Links to this post. Tuesday, April 7, 2015. Waukee's Easter egg hunt. It was great! Links to this post.

Love you more came from my Great Grandma Mae. She always said love you more each time any of us said love you. In honor, I hope you will enjoy my family's adventures! Well I do not know how I forgot to post about Randy's Birthday, but I did! We didn't do a ton to celebrate. I took him for sushi (seems like that is our go to for his birthday)! Then he got to go to Scouts where he decided to become the WEBELOS Leader! So Happy Birthday Randy! I love you more! Reunion Weekend September 19-20. After some dri...

CARPe Diem: Ummmm Yes?!
http://nrcarpediem.blogspot.com/2013/04/ummmm-yes.html
Wednesday, April 10, 2013. It seems like all I have done lately is post pictures of my baby girl. Who, by the way, is no baby anymore. :(. Sigh*. So I figured it was time for a speedy catch up! I posted some pictures from Instagram of our Easter weekend! That was a good weekend! Some family time, a couple egg hunts and some relaxation! Avery is still doing gymnastics and loving it! I feel like I have to be stern in order to get her there but once we are on the way she has a great time! Another Weekend Go...

CARPe Diem: February 2013
http://nrcarpediem.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 27, 2013. Yesterday was my bday! 33 big ones. At least Rusty is 1 yr. older so I can always make fun of him for being older. The day started out with birthday wishes from my little girl. She asked me what kind of a cake I was going to have and if it was going to be a Dora cake like hers. Cute! The past few weeks have been rough. Strep-flu or virus(? Well the verdict at the doctor was a temp of 101 and strep throat again. So glad we went and got Avery a new antibiotic! Since she had a ...

Saturday, March 30, 2013. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Jeanie had a wonderful birthday celebration for her first birthday. The festivities started off with a trip to Zombie Burger (at Papa's request.) I don't know who enjoyed it more - Evelyn and Jeanie? Evelyn and Papa being silly while deciding which burger to choose. Papa ended up with Sara's Revenge, Evelyn chose a cheeseburger with ketchup and pickles. Bama and Jeanie discussing their options. Here's Evelyn doing her best zombie impression. The whole fam...

The Growing Owens: May 2013
http://growingowens.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 16, 2013. The Evolution of Bedtime. Monday night, I witnessed perhaps the sweetest sister moment so far in these girls' lives. Evelyn had asked to watch Dora before bed, and this is what ensued, all before 7:15. My mom is 4. My mom has brown. My mom's favorite color is purple. My mom's favorite food is mac and cheese. My mom's favorite thing to do is tickle me. My mom's job is to cook dinner. My mom always says "Take a bath.". My mom laughs when at the park. My mom and I like to play.
