Frankfort, Kentucky: A Glimpse
The week before Christmas we visited our state capitol for the sad occasion of the visitation of my Godfather’s Mother. We decided to take the children with us.

Easy Christmas Ornament Craft
Organizing crafts for classroom holiday parties doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. I did this super-simple Christmas Ornament Craft with Ella’s class for their Christmas party in 2nd grade and it was a huge hit.

Our family has a serious case of the sickies this week ~ teething, ear infections, stomach bugs, colds, and pneumonia (you can thank me now for not posting pix of max and his stomach bug!). It’s been a crummy week in these parts, but I keep trying to focus on the positive. At least we...
