  • Boys Will Be Boys

    Boys Will Be Boys

    Boys will be boys – they will turn straws into fangs: Boys will be boys – they will play in the mud: Boys will be boys –  they will wrestle anyone that will let them: Boys will be boys –  they will play football as much as they can: Boys will be boys – they…

  • Suspension Bridge

    Suspension Bridge

    During our entire visit, Colter had been begging for us to hike to the Suspension Bridge, on the Sheltowee Trace Trail. Sheltowee Trace is a 282 mile trail. And Colter wanted us to hike to the suspension bridge on it. 282 miles. I was not that thrilled.  But Dad did a little research, and found…

  • Surprise Vacation, Day Two

    Surprise Vacation, Day Two

    After our exciting day, most of us slept well. Actually, everyone except me. LOL So when we all woke up, we ate breakfast and unpacked. The night before Mom had promised the boys that she would teach them to play pool, since there was a pool table in the cabin. So Mom and the boys…

  • Another Surprise!

    Another Surprise!

    My Mom is an amazing Mom. She loves us, takes care of us, and even manages to find the energy to cook up, not only one surprise, but two! (Here is the first surprise) On Dad’s birthday, we all woke up at about 8:30. Mom called Ms. Gretchen and she picked up donuts for us…

  • The More Things Change…

    The More Things Change…

    … the more they stay the same. I was digging around trying to find some old pictures the other day, when I came across these. In August 2008, we were at a friends house for dinner. And since they have a pool, we just couldn’t resist swimming in it! As I was looking at these, I kept…

  • Rewards are Good

    Rewards are Good

    If you are a long-time reader of our blog, you probably know that Emery and I used to play violin. In 2008, we were a part of the band/orchestra for our Christmas carol sing. We had a blast doing that, and I still remember it VERY well. Although, I remember all of our Christmas Sings…

  • Why???

    Why???

    Why do boys like to do things the uncomfortable/difficult way? For instance… Why do they like to wear the footy pajamas that have holes in them? (Even though Mom told them they should be put in the trash…and they have others that they could wear). Why do they like to lie down on the bottom…

  • Do You…

    Do You…

    Do you like to play in the park? My brothers do: Do you like to watch the others, if you are too small to play? Jade does: Do you think that Daddy is a loon for taking pictures instead of playing? Emery does: Do you think that you are going to catch better if you…

  • How Many Can YOU Do??

    This morning, after we were all awake, Mom challenged all of us to a jumping jack contest. The person who could do the most jumping jacks without stopping, would get extra chocolate chips in their pancakes!!! Everyone wanted to win. You see, my brothers are boys. And my Mom is a Mom. So she never puts…

  • Hold Up, Boys!

    Hold Up, Boys!

    One of our favorite things to do in the Spring and Fall is go hiking in the woods at the Charlestown State Park. It’s also great fun to swing from hanging tree branches: The boys always like to be in the front.  So most of the time we have a great view of their backs:…

  • Pizza!!

    Pizza!!

    No, this post is not about pizza. This post is about… …Skiing. When you start skiing, the first thing you learn, (if you have an instructor) is how to stop! At least, that’s what we were taught. To do that, you can go sideways across the hill, or you can pizza. Mom calls it snow…

  • It’s Time To Go Skating!

    It’s Time To Go Skating!

    On one of the days that we did not have anything planned, Grammy and Gumpy suggested that we go to the skating rink near where they were staying. Everyone wanted to go, so we went! It was a HUGE rink! Think the size of a basketball court. But bigger. And we had it entirely to…

  • What Do You Do?

    What Do You Do?

    When your legs are so sore from climbing up the sledding hill 20 thousand times, what do you do?… …You read a book:     When it gets to dark to be outside, what do you do?… … You play charades. (In this photo, the boys had some confusion about whether they were making soap,…

  • Marshmallows Anyone?

    Marshmallows Anyone?

    After we went on our sleigh ride, we went to the campfire that was waiting for us! With it were these “Jumbo Roasting Marshmallows” and marshmallow sticks. Hewitt preferred his black and burnt:.  Greyden, sticky gooey mess:  I like them golden brown and gooey: Gumpy will eat the burned ones if no one else wants…
