Dream Vacation (& Job)

A couple months ago I wrote my first ever album review for Shadow Gallery’s “Digital Ghosts”.  It is an album I truly enjoy listening to & it seems I discover something new every time I listen.  Going to see SG in concert would be a great thing…too bad they don’t perform live.  Well that is [...]

She’s (FINALLY) Having A Baby!

I don’t even know where to start….life is moving in so many directions some days I don’t even know which way to turn.  We’re supposed to be working hard packing for the move to South Dakota…I say supposed to because it is much easier to promise to do the packing later & go play with [...]

“Digital Ghosts” by Shadow Gallery : A Review

The very first note of this album will capture you completely & won’t let go–from the lofty harmonies through the driving beats & furious guitar solos to the exquisite finish, “Digital Ghosts, the new album from Shadow Gallery, is a revelation.

I’m a huge fan of music.  I have a decent & ever-growing collection of music…listening [...]

Cave-ing

I’m feeling like a trip down memory lane again today & this is another one the that makes me laugh ’til I cry &/or snort.  Whenever Abe really wants to make me laugh he will mention our one & only “real” vacation.  Back when life was good & full of promise we decided to take [...]

Fleur de Lys Surprise

My husband is amazing! He is also so sneaky & patient it stuns me.  Our 7th anniversary was August 31st & with everything so hectic & topsy-turvy we didn’t really celebrate.  We did have a quiet evening at home & time together is always the best.

Today I got a surprise belated anniversary gift.  It is [...]

Our Day

Seven years….somehow it seems far longer & yet only last week. I don’t have much more to say than that right now. Happy Anniversary to us!

 

My 2nd 5k

Today was the big day…for the 2nd Annual Friends of Don Sather 5k Run/Walk.  Which I was pre-registered to participate in (along with Hubby this year).  First a little backstory on the whole event.

{The inaugural event was July 10th of last year (2008) & was put together to help raise money for medical bills associated [...]

Of Drive-ins & First Kisses

Memorial Day weekend is an important anniversary for me.  I completely & totally lost part of me — and I’m so blessed because of that– to Hubby.  But let me fill in some background for my readers who may not know the origins of our little life together.

I was living in the Minneapolis area circa [...]

Bootcamp Goodbye

Sunday we attended a farewell party for my brother-in-law.  He left for bootcamp Tuesday for 16 weeks. We (a bunch of family members) got together for some food & fun.  It was a good time.  Abe & I spent a good deal of the evening with Pete & Anne as well.  We will miss hanging [...]

Mom, there’s a buffalo outside the window….

My mom’s birthday is coming up & I’ve been thinking about some of the birthdays we’ve celebrated together.  One in particular stands out for the sheer strangeness of how the day began.  We were all scrambling to get ready for school.  The younger kids were eating breakfast & I walked into the kitchen from my [...]
