Here’s a little Christmas 2023 recap in photos.  Our holiday season was full of fun and sickness…unfortunately.  Some of us are still struggling, praying it gets better soon. Most of my updates are now on INSTAGRAM….and to be honest I’ve struggled whether or not to keep this blog going.  I don’t update it that much anymore and it’s just easier to keep up with friends/family on socials. Then I have this nagging feeling that I don’t want to lose all my memories and this space on the internet I worked so hard for.  We shall see how time goes this year and what I decide to do ..read more

  I recently got this amazing travel backpack for women.  I’m hoping now that things are a bit more “normal” in the world we can start traveling again.  I love to travel- as you all know if you have read my blog for any amount of time!  I was born in Germany, and in 2018 we had the chance to go back and take Connor.  Now, we have another little kiddo who I’d love to take traveling around as well!  I’ve been to Germany, England, and France.  I want our next trip to either be to Scotland/Ireland or Italy.  If you’ve ever been I’d LOVE some tips!  ..read more

Summer 2023 What a whirlwind already! It went by so fast and before you know it I’m sure Christmas will be here. We had an amazing time at Miramar Beach. Despite the rain and high tides, we made some wonderful memories.  It was the kids first time to the ocean (or to at least swim in it).  Connor enjoyed the waves with his cousin Jarrett. At night we all went hunting for crabs, as well as enjoying some delicious food while visiting the area.  The boys all went on a deep sea fishing boat for a day and caught a bunch of red snapper, and Terence even caught a shark. The little girl ..read more

Life Lately and Other Things…

Back to life, back to reality. We had a lovely beach vacation at Miramar Beach, Florida a few weeks ago and I wanted to write some of our memories down.  We did lots of laying on the beach, eating, family time, and saw a few of the places I really wanted to see in Florida!  My favorite thing to do is travel, but sometimes my feet get so tired and it’s hard to keep up.  I’ve been using these supination insoles in my tennis shoes and they’ve helped a lot.  Terence is installing a home gym in the garage right now and we have a new weight bench and a lot of nice new weights.&nb ..read more
