Dreaming of Water Fun

Though the weather is NOT cooperating and we’ve had less than a handful of days over 70 degrees this Spring, I’m dreaming of warmer weather (just changed my desktop screen to a tropical island surrounded by clear blue ocean.) Yet, with a pool still not uncovered and no prospect of clear blue water in a…

This Almost Makes Me Want to Have Another Baby…

Orlando of Bust

It seems like it’s the never ending winter and thanks to the Ground Hog, there’ll be six more weeks! I could really use a vacation to warmer weather, how about you? Because we still have TWO homes (please pray we sell quickly, like yesterday!) not sure we’ll be getting away this year, but if we…

Park City Mountain Ski Resort

I’ve only been skiing a couple of times in my life. Once on a high school ski trip where all I remember is the bus ride with friends and speeding down the mountain in an out of control state. The other time was about 10 years ago when my husband won a business trip to…

I Want a Christmas Do-Over!

After reading these authors Christmas traditions I want a Christmas do-over! Why doesn’t it seem like Christmas here? The weather is chilly, the tree is up, we’ve had family and friends gather over the week? But the real reason is that we’ve been too busy to reflect upon what Christmas really means. Well, it’s not…
