Its a Brand New Year…

January 3rd, 2012 · 2 Comments · a day in the life, Abby, bridget, dave, family, spencer

Well, its officially 2012! Crazy. Last Year, I posted to my blog 6 times. SIX. That’s it. Just 6. That’s like once every other month. I know, I should be punished or something. That being said… Among my goals for this year, I am committing to blogging weekly! Yes, you heard me! I can’t promise […]

It has been TOO long…

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

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. […]

Christmas in Cove

This year, Christmas was at our house. Most of my family was able to come, as were Dave’s cousin and his family. It was pretty chaotic, but lots of fun. We had a brunch and a dinner on Christmas Eve, then some family spent the night and we read Luke 2 that night and did […]

“Helping” with the house

November 7th, 2010 · 2 Comments · a day in the life, Abby, bridget, dave, family, spencer

Its been a few months since I’ve updated this blog… Now that life is starting to return to something that can be somewhat considered normal, and since there are a couple of you out there lovingly reminding me of my less than frequent posts… I figure its about time to get back to business. I […]

Building Our House

For those of you that may not already know, we found out in November that I am pregnant again. I called and setup an appointment for early December and it was then that I found out that I was already nearly 18 weeks along… Yes, it was a bit of a surprise. (The good kind […]

November

January 24th, 2010 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, food, siblings, spencer, tina

The highlights from November include Bridget’s 4th birthday and Thanksgiving.

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 […]
