Thanksgiving & Next Day Birthday Over
Thanksgiving Day went well. It was chilly but sunny in the morning, warmed up but not too much during the day, staying Sunny all day. We had dinner later than I had wanted to. My hubby got me playing Warhawk in the morning and I quit when I realized it was 12:08pm and got going…

My Baby is Four Years Old now!
Quentin turned 4 yesterday. He had a nice time, really liked his presents. He’s getting so big. He’s still the youngest though. He has more “baby traits” than the previous three did at this point, which isn’t precisely birth order, more personality. His older brother, Asa, was the baby at that age, has a different…

Thanksgiving/Birthday 2010 is over
Our Thanksgiving holiday was really big because of my daughter having her birthday on the day this year. It’s always a tough week, but with it all “occurring” on the same one day every so often, it’s a much harder job to pull off. I made two turkeys (pastured, fresh from a farm) ahead of…

Crafting a Christmas Card
It’s already just a week before Christmas 2009. Time has flown. I still haven’t gotten my Christmas cards done. I know what I want to do. But haven’t gotten anything more than pro-types for cutting with my Cricut/Gypsy and putting that together and gluing things together & glitter … but no inside picture or writing…

V’s 11th Birthday
Today is our daughter’s 11th birthday. We are having Spaghetti, at her request, and chocolate cupcakes w/cream cheese frosting. I’ll add some pictures here later. 11 years ago I was in the hospital, induced to give birth so that I didn’t go into labor over the holiday [rolling my eyes] which is a ridiculous thing,…

Frank’s 2008 B-Day
For Frank’s birthday yesterday I made cupcakes. Usually we don’t make cakes for his birthday, not regular cakes. In the past I would often make a cheesecake for his birthday, or nothing, since he didn’t care as much about cakes as, say, the children would for their birthdays. Frank doesn’t care much for holiday trappings,…

Happy Birthday Frank!
Happy Birthday dear! It was 43 years ago that you were born. I’ve known you for over 16 of those years, and I hope with God’s Good Grace it will be many, many more for us both.

Baby Q Turns One
Well, Baby Q turned One Year Old on the 23rd of June. I forgot to post anything about it. I do suppose it was because I was busy with the birthday, then busy getting ready to go out-of-town right after. Baby Q is growing up, not as much a baby, closer to a toddler now.…

Birthday Girl
9 Years Ago today, my darling daughter was born. It was the day before Thanksgiving, and that puts her Birthday squarely on Thanksgiving Day on occassion, but always so very near-by. The birthday girl isn’t feeling so well, with some sort of chest congestion/cough thing going on the past few days. Over all though, she…
