Today, July 8th, marks the 1st Anniversary of the passing of my Dad. It still feels like yesterday I was rushing across the world to be with him. So much has changed, I’m not going to dwell on the sadness. Lord knows it’s there but today is just a date, it will come and go year upon year and …
Little Miss Gremlin’s Business Trip
Little Miss Gremlin has been feeling left out this week with her brother away. I thought she would revel in the alone time but she has been moody, teary and lethargic. She missed him way more than I ever thought she would. They get on very well and love each other but they also push each others buttons in a …
And Then There Was One.
Grand Master D is away, I know I’ve mentioned this. It’s quiet here without him-I miss him. He is having an experience of a lifetime. We spoke with him last night at 10pm and he told us he had a 5am start today for a 6am breakfast then a full day of touring in Philadelphia.

Happy 4th July……
May your campfires be bright and your smores be light…….. in your stomach 🙂  hehehe

After a particularly refreshing kid free weekend, I’m feeling all gushy but in about an hour my boy is going away for a week on his Leadership Ambassador program and it’ll be lonely without him. In the meantime please enjoy this while I finish getting him ready and have coffee…………. As photos go I’m a terrible photographer. Oh I can …
I Sent Him to the Vet, oh Yes I Did!
Just before Miss Gremlin was ready to arrive, we knew we were probably finished having children. We had a boy and a girl as well as the Princess and we were pretty happy with that. After Miss Gremlin was born we were totally convinced. She was huge, 10lbs born. My poor body said Ok seriously? You can’t possibly make me …
