Happy International Women’s Day!

I need to get a more recent photo of the four most important women in my life! Words can’t capture how much all four of them do in so many ways (yes even Sasha!) to make all of our lives better.

Secular Sunday – “That’s God Blowing Your Love Around The World”

Sunday March 5 is our 20th wedding anniversary and there’s a fitting story from our Mexican Beach Wedding for Secular Sunday. We used a wedding coordinator in Mexico to make arrangements including specifically requesting a non-religious officiant. The guy showed up the day of our ceremony and it was clear that he actually was *quite* […]

Saturday Snap – Varadero Sunset

Yes, we were in the Mayan Riviera, not Varadero. Yes, I technically quit drinking booze at the end of last August (but with the caveat that I *mostly* quit which allows me to still imbibe occasionally – or more than occasionally if I’m at an all-inclusive resort!)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Snow Seats (January 2011)

A lot of snow in our old house’s front yard back then…

Happy Birthday Mom!

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Seven – Rainbow

Since I said Indigo/Violet were being combined in my Rainbow Challenge, I was hoping to do a final post for day seven of some multi-coloured drinks – the Bob Marley and the Toucan we had at Moon Palace were the drinks I had in mind… Unfortunately, the drinks I got weren’t quite as perfectly formed…

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Four – Green

Her: Mojito Him: Caipirinha (which I believe would be as popular as the mojito if it had a more easily pronounceable name!  Also, mine should be greener as I’ve had them with a lot more limes.)

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Three – Yellow

Her: Pineapple Mojito Him: Pineapple Mojito (They’re really good!)

Saturday Snap – Treats!

Giving two of my kids treats…one gets freeze dried duck liver and one gets Skittles (just have to make sure I don’t mix them up!)
