It has been TOO long…

August 23rd, 2011 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, Abby, bridget, family, random, spencer

I keep thinking… I need to get back to blogging. And then I keep putting it off. And putting it off. I’m sure it doesn’t help that I starting writing down a list of things I want to/need to/haven’t yet blog[ged] about. The task of “catching up” so to speak is daunting. Besides, I have […]

These turned up in a box while unpacking one day… I’m not sure how it happened, but we all ended up taking turns putting them on. [It was completely amazing…  once we put them on, it was like we could see in 3D. It was like everything around us was right there within our reach. […]

Bridget’s iPad

January 27th, 2011 · 1 Comment · bridget, dave, random, Uncategorized

Dave got himself an iPad a couple of months ago. He loves it. And, even though she doesn’t get to use it very often, Bridget loves it too… She loves it so much, that she decided one day that she needed her own. Since I lovingly informed her that we would not be buying one for […]

October

January 18th, 2010 · 5 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, random, spencer, tina

In the spirit of catching up… This past October (2009) we decided, nearly on a whim, to pack up and take a trip to California/Disneyland. Disneyland is always a fun place, and it seemed like good timing where we were out from under our mortgage payment, and hadn’t starting building the house yet. We went […]

Once upon a blog…

January 18th, 2010 · 2 Comments · a day in the life, random

You know, there was a time on this blog where I wrote something (anything) every single day – or at least most every day. Those days seem to be a thing of the past, and though I miss having new content on my blog daily, I find that I lack the motivation to actually put […]

Do you know what we did this summer?

November 7th, 2009 · 9 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, domestic attempts, family, high school, random, siblings, spencer, tina

Its no secret that I am further behind on my blogging than I have ever been before. The thought of catching up one post at a time was quite daunting, and just pretending like the last several months never happened (and not blogging about them at all) didn’t seem right either. So, I went through […]
