Friday was the last day of school and preschool before Christmas. Matt’s class sang carols for the parents.  There was also a live nativity. Louie’s school went to see A Christmas Carol.  It was pretty scary, but both boys said they enjoyed...
Ah, November…   Louie marched in the Veterans Day Parade with his Cub Scout Pack. Louie’s Soccer season came to an end.  The team was 7-4-1 in the regular season, and 1-1 in the play-offs losing to the eventual Champion.  To put the final...
I can’t wait until we have two (or even better THREE) kids busy with extra-curricular activities.   October is Birthday Month.  Mom & Dad both celebrated the happy occasion this month. Cub Scouts kicked into high gear this month. There was...
July was vacation month.  We took a family vacation to the Sunset Beach for a week, went to Clemson for two days and the boys went to the North Carolina mountains to visit Santa Land in a special two day trip with Bupka. Plus two trips to Columbia...

We had a good Halloween. Louie & Matt went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood for the first time ever. Usually we just drove around to the Grandparents houses but not this year. The trick-or treaking was a bit slow at first, and the boys actually...

It was wonderful! This was the first one in a couple of years that I was actually pampered on Sunday. Lou's shift changed and he's off on Sundays now! So, I got to sleep in. The boys came in and woke me up with a great big "Happy Mother's...
