Struttin’ her Stuff!

Lili was able to be part of a fun fashion show on Monday.  I don’t know what I was thinking, thinking I would be able to get all the kids out of the house and looking presentable by 9:00 am.  Thankfully Mike came to the rescue.  We divided and conquered!  I left with Lili to […]

On Saturday, it was the anniversary of my Grandfather’s death. It’s been 4 years already. I can’t believe it. There hasn’t honestly been a week that I don’t think of him. He was an amazing man.  I miss him dearly but I know that he is in Heaven looking down on us, his place is […]

It’s a Blueberry "napper!

We just picked up some FRESH Michigan blueberries. My girls love them…as do we. Well, I was writing a post today on the computer for SIMPLE and I turned around to witness a Blueberry ‘Napper in our house!  Handful after handful she was eating them. So, like any good parent, I quickly grabbed my camera […]
