We’re camped for the night in a little town in Kentucky. About ten minutes after my last post, Eden found gum in her hair. An hour after that, we got fuel. An hour after that, I got a text from the bank that holds the card we used at the pump. And then another text. […]
Road Trip 2018
On Saturday, the oldest of my kids’ cousins is getting married near Richmond, Virginia. When we began discussing trying to attend the wedding and see Blaine’s family, it was a puzzle on how to get motels with ten people. (They don’t let you get just one room.) We talked about renting a house. (They heard […]
Word War
The boys started a word war. To the tune of Red Necked Woman. 🤦🏻♀️ The girls wrote a rebuttal, Goober Peas style. *This may or may not be based on actual events. We have one toilet and I’ve been informed they may have created themselves an outhouse in the woods. I can’t bring myself to […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy thanksgiving! We spent the day yesterday at Silver Dollar City with friends. I set myself up for a whole lot of cooking to do today. But… we got it done. It was just us, and we continued our tradition to do appetizers around 11-12 and then eat turkey later. For appetizers, I made fried […]
Piano.
Back when Eden was a baby and Liberty was two, we lived in South Dakota. I owned a beautiful antique player piano. When our home’s buyer wanted the piano, Blaine said it came with the house. He didn’t want to move it to Pennsylvania. Turns out, pianos are heavy. Really heavy. For thirteen years, I […]
Jobs, camping, voting, Reformation day, and baking soda deliciousness.
We’ve spent the last week and a half making pretzels and sausage for Reformation day, and camping for the first time in our new camper. I started working part time for the first time in about twelve years, the laundry chores got reassigned in an attempt to keep up, we successfully celebrated camo day at […]
Deer.
Some days just don’t go as planned. I was sitting in my pj’s with a oversized camouflage hoodie on (detail important later) drinking my tea and giving spelling tests about 9ish am. I hadn’t showered. My pj pants were as mismatched to my top as possible. My hair… yeah. I hadn’t gotten in the shower […]
Homecoming 2018
Homecoming was last weekend. I’m slow. I’m not really sure what happened to this week. Eden is a freshman this year and got to join Liberty for homecoming. There was much dancing, music, food, and fun. I workee security again this year so I got to be there. I have to keep an eye on […]
Camper Photos
In a moment of “before” here’s a few photos of the camper. I haven’t touched anything yet. The wallpaper is going to go if I have my way, possibly new cushions and curtains, and some color is needed. I’m excited to start and swamped for time to get going. Here’s where we are with it […]
Major dislikes, airports, and General Lee
After having tiramisu at a restaurant recently, I decided the kids needed to experience it too. Finding the ladyfingers that we needed for the tiramisu recipe at the grocery store turned into a frustrating venture, and we ended up making our own. I didn’t get a photo of the final dessert. Almost everyone liked it […]
