August Already?
June… July… where did you go? How did we get to August already?! It seems like the first two months of summer just disappeared into thin air! There’s been so much going on! When I look through my photos from June and July, it looks like one big fun fest. And it was. Lots of [...]
Sleep- How I Have Missed Thee
We’re winding down a nice, relaxing weekend. Read: No marathons, no triathlons, no traveling. Insert relaxed, well rested sigh of bliss here. While I’m sure it would be boring after awhile, it was much needed this weekend! For some reason, I feel compelled to fill up as much of the calendar as possible with a [...]
Tri Del Sol & Taylor’s Graduation Party
This weekend, we had another double-booked Saturday. We had both the Tri Del Sol in Middleville and Taylor’s graduation party in Shelby. If you aren’t down with your geography, hold up your hand- Lower Peninsula, mitt-style- and point to just below your pinky… then take your pointer finger and draw it all the way across [...]
Guests, a Tri, and Sleep Deprivation, Oh My!
What a whirlwind of a weekend! Mom, Dad, Ryan, Brad, and the Bagel came to visit this past weekend… the same weekend as Kevin’s first Olympic distance tri, which involved getting up at 3:30 am on a Sunday morning. Ugh. Too early. Here’s a quick recap of the weekend: Here’s everybody munchin’ some lunch at [...]
It’s Somebody’s Birthday!!
That somebody just happens to be my extraordinary husband! So, break out the party hats and get ready to sing! Kevin is 26 years old today!! Happy Birthday Kevin!!!!
Take Me Out to the Ballgame
What better way to cap off a long, relaxing Anniversary/Independence Day weekend than by taking in a baseball game? We took in a game of the Great American Pastime earlier this afternoon. The Whitecaps won by a landslide. In fact, it was a record-setting victory! The final score ended up being 20 to 11, with [...]
Happy Birthday, America! Have a Cupcake!
Happy 4th of July!! I hope you had a wonderful holiday! We sure did. We relaxed, we grilled (yummy steaks!), and we took in the EGR fireworks down at Reeds Lake. The GR Federation Band was back this year, filling up the pre-fireworks air with jaunty, patriotic standards. We got there a bit early, but [...]
Caught in a Jam
I love strawberries! I love them fresh from the garden and dipped in chocolate and in ice cream and in milkshakes. I love those little strawberry candies with the gooey goodness in the center. Basically, if I were a Dr. Seuss character, I’d eat them in a house, with a mouse, in a car, in [...]
Has It Been 4 Years Already?!
Happily ever after is sure flying by! Our July 2005 wedding still feels like just yesterday. So it’s pretty amazing to consider that, as of today, we have officially been married for 4 whole years! I suppose it just goes to show that time flies [...]
