Graduation

This week Zachary graduated from 6th Grade. We officially have a Middle Schooler. Welp, that went crazy fast. I look at that little boy in the picture in awe and yet marvel at the soon to be teenager that he has become. When you adopt, there is so much that is not known. To be …

Week in Rewind: June 10

So, i got a little sidetracked with my updates. I’m going to do a quick snapshot. First up, Zachary performed at his last band concert. It was a fun night. That Friday, we headed up to Six Flag’s for a band competition. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much. The regular band scored an Excellent …

Week in Rewind: May 5

Last weekend, we played at Ripken, Aberdeen Maryland. That’s always a really fun weekend. And to be honest, I thought we would play our three games and head home, feeling good if we won a game. But this team is scrappy. On Saturday, they won two games and were sitting as the second seed heading …

Week in Rewind: April 22

Sound the alarms, someone needs to tell Mother Nature that it is spring time. It’s been super chilly the last couple of days. Luckily today is bright and sunny with warmer weather on the way. The boy has a game tonight. He’s still fighting the injury bug and can only hit. Three weeks ago he …

Week in Rewind: Easter Addition

This weekend is Easter, a time of rebirth and hope for tomorrow. We’ve been busy in the gardens the last few days as dormant flowers come back to life. And the birds, the wonderful birds are once again singing their beautiful melodies. This little blue bird made his first appearance last night. A magical time …

Week in Rewind: April 8

It seems that Spring time has arrived. Somebody needs to tell Mother Nature. It’s been cold, damp and windy. We managed to snap our yearly picture under the cherry tree. Oh how that picture has changed over the years. He now has to crouch down to fit under it. But we made it work. Zach …

Week in Rewind: April 1

It was another fast week around here. Zachary officially started his baseball season. It was a cold weekend, as in thirties, with 20-30mph wind gust. In other words, not ideal weather. The boy pitched on Sunday and had it dialed in. Im not sure what more proud about: mechanics looking good or mentally not letting …

Week in Rewind: Mar 25

It’s been a month full of birthday celebrations. First up, Pop Pop. He treated the family to an incredible steak dinner. Super yummy and a really good time. We love him and he is so amazing with the grandkids. He’s one of Zachary’s biggest supporters. All of us are lucky to have him in our …

Week in Rewind: March 11

It’s been a really quick week. Last Saturday, daddy headed to the shore while Zachary and I spent it together at the house. And we accomplished a lot before noon. Groceries before his game at 10, check. Basketball game where the boy played his best game..10 points, check. Chick-Fil-A for lunch, strawberry shakes for two, …

Week in Rewind: March 5

We celebrated birthdays this weekend. Great Grandmom turned 94, still elegant and beautiful as ever. Daddy tuned as well and we celebrated with dinner and cake. Zachary finished his month at his new training facility. We were able to talk with Travis, the player development guy. I casually asked about their travel team hoping he …
