2011 is gone and we are already in to the New Year slacking a bit. Today, Amber and I realized at 4:45pm that the kids should have gone to school. We thought for whatever reason that they started on the 3rd but nope got a recorded message telling us that are child was absent from [...]

It sounds so cliché, but it seems like a month ago that Amber said to me, “You know your stuff if pretty good, how come you have never thought about doing this full time?” She was talking about my photography and for a while every time we talked about it I would just shrug it [...]

It was too beautiful to stay in the house this weekend, so we scooped up the children and headed to the beach. We loaded up with towels, sunscreen, water, snacks, beach toys, football and volleyball… and hoped the children would be satisfied. Going to the beach with children can be absolutely exhausting! Today, the sun [...]

We were so tired that we almost spent the last moment of 2008 on our couch with our eyes half open. Neither one of us has been feeling very well the year has just been exhausting! I managed to climb onto our kitchen counter and give Joe the “look” long enough for him to ask [...]

We celebrated our son’s 9th birthday at the Destin Seafood Festival. We were excited about the culinary options – self proclaimed seafood aficionados, we drifted towards the aroma of fried water creatures as soon we crossed the entry. The vendors were familiar from festivals past, and Joe opted for calamari and fried shrimp the first night, [...]
