What a difference a year makes. One year ago today I got the call early in the morning that my Dad was gone. He had run the race and was now reaping his reward. I left the hospital a little after midnight knowing it was most likely going to be the last time I saw [...]
This week has not been our best. Saturday night we took Punkin to Urgent Care with a fever of 102, runny nose, general overall fussiness and clingy-ness. She’s normally a pretty passive baby, hardly fusses (unless someone takes a toy from her) and she’s very rarely clingy, so these were signs something was up. She [...]
Many of you may know that Mister Bull had surgery yesterday. It was just dental work, but we opted for the surgery route instead of 4 visits where we had to convince him the needle/shot was his friend. Not to mention the sound of the grinding, holding your mouth open for what seems like an [...]
This week was a rather drab week around here. Until Wednesday evening that is. The public schools in our area were out for a 3 day Fall Break (Wed-Fri), so we took full advantage and had our oldest nephew spend the night. We always want our guests to feel welcome and that we really care [...]
Letting the Lord direct our family size was never in our plan. However, he began to work on my heart after… Fly on over to Holy Spirit Led Homeschooling, where I’m sharing our story today. Blessings, Annette Sharing with this wonderful parties: Raising Arrows The Better Mom The Prairie Homestead Time-Warp Wife Growing Home Far Above [...]
The week started out great when Mister Bull was able to go to the Air & Space Museum to see “Fifi”. For those of you who don’t know ”who” that is, Fifi is the only B-29 bomber still in flying condition in the United States. And lucky us, it came to our local Air & Space [...]
I remember taking a ton of field trips when I was in Elementary School. Maybe my memories aren’t completely accurate, but what is accurate are the fun memories I have from those field trips. Mostly I remember FUN times, but being in the gifted program we also had papers and assignments to complete too. When [...]
When our kids are little, we spend most of our time walking over them and/or their toys that are scattered all over the floor. I don’t know about you, but that is one of my biggest pet peeves – having to walk over things in the floor. Lately, Mister Bull has a bad habit of [...]
This past week did not go as planned – at least, not as I planned. I had a doctor’s appointment scheduled for this coming Wednesday, Oct 3rd, after which I hoped to share the exciting news of baby #5 joining our family, with you all. But, Tuesday afternoon that all changed. Early that afternoon I [...]
Have you ever had one of those weeks where everyone seems to be in a mood? Not necessarily bad moods all week, just…moods. That was this week – me included. So, this week was a little scattered to say the least. I’m going to share some random photos from our week and some of them even have [...]
