Heading out in the middle of a cold, snowy Saturday night to take a child to the emergency room is never a fun thing. Oh wait it’s Sunday morning, I always forget the day changes even if you don’t sleep.

Wintery Wet Basketball
We were looking for something to do today that would get is outside. The temperatures were above freezing, even if just barely, so we wanted to take advantage. We talked about going for a walk, or to a playground, but Noah decided he wanted to play basketball. We didn’t know what the court would beContinue reading “Wintery Wet Basketball”
My Daughters and Their Dolls
For Christmas this year Caile and Ella each wanted one of the 18 inch dolls which some of their friends had. I figured they were a little old for dolls and that they would quickly get bored of them and they would end up at the back of the closet or somewhere similar. So farContinue reading “My Daughters and Their Dolls”
11th Wedding Anniversary

Snowman love, as long as it’s indoors
My wife hates winter, and in particular snow. That’s pretty rough seeing as we live where we do. It’s turned into a running joke with all the kids she looks after and their families. Snow really is a four letter word. Whenever it snows the kids laugh and say Jen’s going to be so mad,Continue reading “Snowman love, as long as it’s indoors”
Some presents I enjoy, others not so much
Last night after coming home from our family dinner at my Mom’s house we put Noah to bed and we took the time to enjoy one of our family gifts. We were given the board game PayDay. I don’t recall ever playing it before, but Jen loved it when she was little. Alex was upContinue reading “Some presents I enjoy, others not so much”
