This Writer's Block: March 2015
http://www.thiswritersblock.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 28, 2015. Dad's Lifetime Achievement Ceremony in Washington, D.C. Monday, March 9, was the big ceremony/dinner where my Dad was honored while we were in D.C. He was a recipient of the 2015 Herb Wegner Memorial Award for Lifetime Achievement, given to him by the National Credit Union Foundation. That is the official name for the award, but in other words, it's a super big deal. To my knowledge, it's one of the highest (if not the. Highest) honor one can receive in the credit union world.

This Writer's Block: February 2015
http://www.thiswritersblock.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 26, 2015. It's in quotes because it didn't really happen. After much buildup and anticipation this week, yesterday was kind of a bummer of a snow day. After we had rounded up all the flashlights in the house, we put Tessa to bed (she was totally unconcerned, natch) and started a candlelight game of Scrabble. It wasn't much, but it put a big smile on my little guy's face.and that was worth the whole crazy day! Tuesday, February 24, 2015. We had a really nice, relaxing weekend. We di...

Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Cousin photo shoot and outtakes. My mom and sister recently picked out some coordinating outfits for the four kids, so we decided to try and get some good photos of all of them together. Plus, I am in desperate need of an updated framed picture of them in my house. Here are the best ones:. And now for the funny part.the outtakes (get ready, there are a lot of them! Tessa is poking her own eye and Natalie is giving her a disgusted look. Ugh, you're such a baby, Tess.". Maybe we'l...

This Writer's Block: Minty fresh

Monday, August 3, 2015. Someone got into my chewing gum earlier today while I was preoccupied with, you know, housework. I knew she was a little too. QuietI just didn't catch her in time. I guess I'm glad she spit it all out before she choked on it. But I still had to throw out an entire pack of my favorite gum. Another day another mess, thanks to my tiny troublemaker. She certainly keeps life interesting! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Coopers 8th birthday party. Girls weekend at the beach. Premade...

Thursday, July 30, 2015. Is summer really almost over? I think I'm in denial. Summer cannot possibly be winding down.it seems like it just started! Nevertheless, Cooper will be starting second grade two weeks from today. Summer is definitely almost over. Boo. Anyhow, I have been trying to pack a lot of summer fun into this last week. Hopefully, I can keep it up next week, too! On Tuesday, after a great dentist appointment for Cooper (who now wants to be a dentist when he grows up), we finally. Happy camp...

Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Walking progress in a week. Last Tuesday, I took Cooper and Tessa over to my in-laws' house so they could spend the night. Tess showed Nina and Papa a few of her steps:. She worked hard while there, following her brother and big cousins around. By the time we went to the McWane Center on Thursday, she was really going to town with her new skill! We are so proud of our little princess, too! Way to go, Tessa Kate. You are getting so big and we love you so so much! She really started...

Saturday, August 1, 2015. I have a few pictures I wanted to post, ones that kind of got lost in the shuffle.I either accidentally left them off the post they were meant for, or I just couldn't figure where to fit them in. So here they are now. On my birthday, my sister posted this on Facebook:. I won't point the finger directly at my husband, but.) Anyhow, I love this picture of her sweaty little self with Layne. And, because I'm just too lazy to make a separate post for it, here are some pictures I took...

Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Fun weekend with a day at the lake. I don't know how we have made it an entire summer without spending a day at the lake. Such is life, I guess. Cooper has been to Nina and Papa's a couple times this summer, but Jay and I have not gone on one boat ride or swim in the lake until (finally! Weather. We all had a really great time.it went by way too fast! On Sunday, we went to lunch for Layne's fifth birthday. Can't believe our #1 niece is already five! Coopers 8th birthday party.

This Writer's Block: Last few days of summer
http://www.thiswritersblock.com/2015/08/last-few-days-of-summer.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Last few days of summer. Although we didn't have anything planned for the last few days of summer, I kind of let Cooper take the reigns on what we did early in the week. He picked a couple places to eat, played a lot, watched some movies (the kid is a true homebody) and even purchased an alarm clock for the new school year. My parents brought him back this jersey from their recent trip to Minnesota. He would wear it every single day if I would let him! After we were shuttled b...
