Well, if you couldn’t tell it was a much more relaxed June for us. Baseball and T-ball both ended, and school is over. Both boys had their respective banquets at the beginning of the month. We celebrated Bupka’s birthday, Father’s Day and took a...
Matt finished up his first T-Ball season tonight. Matt has been chomping at the bit for the past two years while Louie played soccer and t-ball. When I coached the soccer teams Matt was able to hang out at the practices and occasionally get...
Both boys were playing sports this month. Being Matt’s first sport season of any kind we really had no idea what to expect. Growing up I remember my parents encouraging each of us the “play our own sport” And I think going forward we may have to start...

We woke up to almost 5 inches of snow. An uncommon occurrence for us in South Carolina. The kids didn’t even want to have breakfast before heading out side. This wasn’t Sarah’s first, but it was the first time she was able to spend any real...
After a few weather related stops and starts we finally got to take the kids to the Circus. Our first attempt was the weekend of the first ice storm this year. We had to cancel, and the boys were very upset. Sarah won’t remember this...
Well, having some time off in December greatly increased the amount of time I had for posting pictures. Louie’s Cub Scout Pack rode in the Lancaster Christmas Parade . Jenny celebrated a birthday . There was lots of baking. Chocolate Chip Cookies...

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...
