Normally I am the one at night who comes home with the most homework. Today Andrew won. He brought in a HUGE stack of papers, the size of a couple of textbooks, to grade. The done ‘pile’ now covers the floor. Notice that our carpet no longer exists (these are assignments that don’t need to…

FHE: Friends, Halloween, and Eating
Yesterday we joined our friends the Tates for family home evening! Andrea and I have known each other since we were in elementary school and it is so fun to live close to each other after we were separated by family moves in 2004. They invited us over to carve HUGE pumpkins that were grown by…
October in Review!
So this was actually the very end of September, but it is close enough. Andrew took me to my first very really loud rock (at least I think that is what it was) concert. It was VERY loud. And fun. There was a plethora of people watching material. Imagine Dragons and Group Love played, and lots…

Spice 5: Love
Our kitchen has been in survival mode the last two weeks. After my hand surgery, I discovered there is very little you can make completely one handed (cereal is my new forte). I did not foresee the difficulty, but fortunately a few wise friends did and they were so kind to bring dinner over for a week…
