Saturday Snap – Daddy-Daughter Night

Shea had a very long day and Pace is both pretty introverted and a stereotypical teenager so it’s hard to get him out of the house at the best of times. That meant Sasha and I had a daddy-daughter date to The Artesian’s “Holiday Sing-a-long” Thursday night which was great fun.

Good-bye House!

Friday Fun Link – My New Christmas Movie Tradition?

Throwback Thursday – First Glimpse of Our New House (September 2019)

For the last few years, Shea and I have been occasionally “kicking the tires” on houses that caught our eye. We were looking for something a bit bigger, something a bit newer, something a bit more fully featured than the 1977 starter home we bought fifteen years ago. When we went to see another house […]
