Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to Bald Man and all you other daddies out there.
I am so thankful that Cory is the father of my kids. (Yes, Cory and Bald Man are the same person, lest you think I’m outing a deep family secret here! :P) He is a great dad to our […]

To My Valentine

For nursing me through the flu
While corralling the kids one by two,
For fielding the calls from you-know-who
And all the nice compliments when I felt like poo,
For knowing how to pronounce the word, “gnu”
And remembering what Gary looked like, too,
For all the things I love that you do
Here’s just a reminder of how much I love […]

Marriage News

On the eve of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day comes a story about the upcoming birth of his grandchild.
MLK’s son, MLK III, is announcing his 2 year marriage to long-time girlfriend, Arndrea Waters, which the couple apparently kept secret.
A couple of things come to mind when reading this. First, how hard it […]

A New Marriage in the New Year

A new year is upon us. Does anyone else get flashbacks to childhood games of hide-and-seek? Are you, like me, still standing in the middle of the field when already 2008 has jumped up and shouted, “Ready or not, here I come!”
Just me then, yeah?
Anyway, here’s my challenge to all you brides and grooms out […]

Happy New Year’s Eve!

We’re here at the last day of 2007. How are you going to send it out?
We actually have a grandparent offering to take all the kids, and Bald Man and I thought for a moment about actually going out to celebrate. As we were talking about it, we realized that we’ve never actually […]

The Inn at Cedar Falls: Part 2

Though much of our anniversary trip was spent in our cozy cottage, we did get around to enjoying some of the natural surroundings. We also ventured into the quaint town nearby.
Hocking Hills, the area where the Inn at Cedar Falls is located, is home to a beautiful and peaceful wooded area. As expected […]

Remembering A Weekend Away

Looks like Kerri and I will be finishing up this month with some reflections on our weekend away. I’ll get things started.
In short, it was fantastic. Anyone in this part of the country could do worse than visit the Hocking Hills region of Ohio. The landscape was beautiful, and I get the feeling that this […]

Lights Out!

Okay, a quick observation and question here. Do you know anyone who leaves their Christmas tree lights on all the time, including when they’re NOT HOME?!?! Me, too!!!!!
How is it that these people don’t know that the one time you leave your lights on and leave the house, THAT is the time your […]

Christmas Love Songs

It’s time to share some favorite Christmas Love Songs! Of course, you have to start with Elvis and Blue Christmas. I could listen to him sing all day!

Let it Snow–Really makes me wish we had a working fireplace again!
The Christmas Song (aka Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)–Though not explicitly a love song, […]
