Dear Eliana,
You are six years old now. Chloe just turned 4, so I’ve been writing in your baby books this evening. I can’t believe how far our family has come since you first broke into our hearts. You seem like the third partner with Daddy and I. We [...]
I have finally added a boatload of pictures and wanted to write a bit about them. I suggest when you do view them to use piclens, because each gallery has over a hundred pictures.
First off, I was so blessed to have been able to go out to Oklahoma back in February to spend a few [...]
We’re going to have tons of fun, but only if we can get everyone to come! Bring your own mask, or wear one of ours! There will be cake, games, music, crafts, food, and presents!! Oh, about those presents, don’t worry about bringing one, this party is all about having fun with our friends, so [...]

We had Eliana and Lydia’s birthday party yesterday at the church. It was a lot of fun, they said so themselves.
I can’t believe my girls are so big! I have been a mother for 5 years. Man.. that’s like a lifetime, just ask Eliana, she’ll agree. They are so wonderful, and growing up to be [...]
Denise and Amanda, you didn’t know there was a third aunt did you?
Kasey and I go back to 2000, before Chris and I were married. The first time we ever met in real life, I was pregnant with Eliana. Then the first time she ever met her Damon was at Mom’s house in [...]
When I was a kid, as long as there was a bike to ride, or a creek to play by, or a rock to climb, and most importantly, I did get too hot and sweaty. I could handle playing outside. I’ve always preferred inside though. Video Games, reading, writing.. something that required more brain work, [...]
