The Weekend Update

Feb 22nd, 2010 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

My brother headed this way for a trip to KC. He made us Heart Attack Tacos. They were really good, but something that I should probably limit myself to eating twice a year. Mainly because they were fried. The entire taco. Ada had dance Saturday morning, but we didn’t spend our typical Saturday together. We [...]

My extended break from posting

Dec 29th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 1

I wrote my last post minutes before I got the call from Mac about Tess. Most people follow on Facebook, so it isn’t brand new news that my SIL Tess is in ICU at KU Med because of acute liver failure. It has been 8 emotional days, most of it was getting one piece of [...]

Wait, they can do that?

For as far back as I can remember, my grandfather would tell me, “I want to be buried in a coffee can.” Everybody knew of this request. He drank coffee occasionally, but he wasn’t a coffee fanatic. He was just…overly thrifty. We always joked about it with him, but when he died, we found out [...]

I’m not nervous about the surgery, but I’m finding myself nervous about the recovery. You’d think that I was the one that is going through this. I will probably feel the same way that [...]

Day 60: Josh This is my 3-year old nephew, Josh. He is the youngest of my brother’s clan. It is nice to be able to take a photograph of a child who can hold still long enough for me to take it. I tried again with Ada last night, and nothing would make her stay [...]

Day 48: Happy Birthday Chris, Stacy and the kiddos have left. There were a lot of people in this house, and half of them were age 9 and under. I’m exhausted. Five of us adults left yesterday early evening to go gambling in Kansas City, leaving Mac alone with all six kids. He is brave. [...]
