The older my parents, siblings and children get, I find myself frequently reflecting on what an amazing family I have. Growing up we have always had large gatherings on Christmas day and […]
Uh-oh I missed two days! Wednesday, I ran out of time (kids had half day of school) and Thursday was my birthday and Thanksgiving. Trying to get back on track while everyone is asleep. My husband has a tradition of taking the older kids out shopping for Black Friday. They used to wake up and […]
