Labor Day Blowout 2012

As I mentioned before, we do Labor Day big in my family. Every year it’s different, but for the past 15 years, we’ve always done something.

My parents organize a Labor Day get-together every year. It’s a big deal for my immediate family, and for the last 15 years, we’ve never missed one. […]

Great Expectations: Genie In A Blog

Leigh Ann writes Genie In A Blog, a hysterical documentation of her life with twins plus one. She makes being a mom of multiples look So. Darn. Easy. Like, when she demonstrated the way to get awesome pictures of them! And how easy it is to take them places in the […]

Waiting for the Bus #essenceofnow

For the last week and a half, E. Belle and I have done a great deal of waiting outside for the bus. Erv is always taking a nap (or hanging out in his bed).

Ivy, up until now, has only gone half days in school, so she has gotten home at […]

Project 365: Week 34

This was a stressful week, to say the least.

Aug 19

It didn’t start out stressful. In fact, it started downright fun. In our house, all you need to do is crank up the music during dinner and you get this:

We actually have a REALLY awesome video of the rocking out that […]

The Snake Saga.

I’m calling this “The Week Of The Snake(s)”.

We had three snakes in our garage and one in the living room, since MONDAY. It was like the Apocalypse or something.
