Weekend Snaps | Kid Swap Edition

Another weekend is almost in the books and we spent ours swapping kids. Come again? It was fall break in school and Joe was fortunate to be asked by a good friend of his to accompany his family to Lake of the Woods, which is in the far northwest corner of Minnesota – a good […] Read more…

High Five for Friday!

Thursday night has commenced and it’s just Joe and me around home tonight. Teacher Man has his second night of parent-teacher conferences this week so he will be rolling in later, presumably exhausted but no less excited about the weekend coming up than we are.

So I guess it’s my birthday.

I turned 47 yesterday. This is not, by the way, meant to be a big announcement of my birthday, although I suppose it kind of seems that way. Gifts completely optional, I promise.

We don’t have big plans – just a little babysitting of our niece, Miss Morgan, tomorrow (yay!) and then catching up on life, otherwise known as groceries, laundry, fall garden […] Read more…

Middle School.

This guy started middle school – 6th grade! – yesterday. He didn’t seem overly nervous about it. Yes, he was a little anxious, declaring it seemed awkward to walk down to the end of the street by himself to catch the bus. (He actually has never ridden the bus to elementary school; I have always dropped him off […] Read more…

Breakfast hash, tomato sauce & chocolate cake (or my weekend).

I can’t believe it’s Sunday night already. And it’s weird because I think I’m a little sad that Teacher Man goes back to school tomorrow. Usually I’m ready to get back to the structure and routine of the school year. Somehow tonight, though, I’m mourning how quickly the summer went by. It was a great summer, […] Read more…
