Grandma came over (bless her) and dyed Easter eggs with the girls. I am so bad at doing holiday special things, so I was so happy she asked to come! The girls had a blast and treasured their creative eggs. I was able to make dinner and get caught up on some baking. Eleanor was [...]

It’s been 9 years since I married this lovely man. Each year is more blessed than the last. (photo taken with B-House’s long arm on our anniversary date)
Morning at the Rose Garden
Posted in Special Days on July 14, 2010 | 1 Comment »
I took the girls to one of my favorite places here in Germany – the British rose garden, home decor shop, and tea house, just 5 minutes away from our home. The last time we went was with my mom (remember, Mom?) last year, right after Eleanor was born. They have made so many improvements [...]
Our Christmas
Posted in Special Days on January 18, 2010 | 3 Comments »
We had a peaceful Christmas together. We ate special foods, played with toys, went to church on Christmas Eve, opened gifts on Christmas morning, read and talked about the Christmas story, and had one guest share Christmas dinner with us. We all had a very good holiday. Here are a few pictures… the three gals [...]
Picture Time

I was so excited to get a good picture of the girls…for once! It took all day to get it right. The morning session didn’t work out AT ALL, but we used what we learned to make the afternoon session go more smoothly. And I LOVE this picture! We used little chocolate candies as bribes, [...]
At the Doctor’s

Isn’t this great? The baby can have her check-up, Emma can be “mommy’s helper,” and Taylor can drive the pirate ship. Everyone’s happy…until the baby gets her shots. :( The doctor thought it was funny that I was taking a picture of his office, but I couldn’t help it! It was the easiest doctor visit [...]
Harvest Sunday

Last Sunday, B-House brought home a crate FULL of fresh produce, a huge basket of grapes, and an enormous piece of bread. There were carrots, tomatoes, walnuts, apples, home-made jams, pumpkins, onions, and home-made dried apples. The piece of bread was just half of a loaf, but it must have been at least 18 inches [...]

My sister was blessed with her first baby two days ago (Wednesday). We are so happy for her and her husband! The new baby came 5 weeks early, but is healthy and a whopping 6 lb. 3 oz.! Praise the Lord!

I took this picture when we went to visit my dad on his birthday. I could not believe I actually got a picture where both girls are smiling! They must really enjoy spending time with him! I know I do!
The Orange County Fair

The Orange County Fair took place this last August, but I never posted pictures of it! My mom and my aunt took the three of us girls to the fair one morning. It was quite hot, but we had a fun time viewing all the booths of trinkets for sale and yummy foods to eat. [...]
