Hello Again

Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if you’d like to meet. Much like the Adele song, we need to say I’m sorry.  This blog has been MIA for a bit. And I really can’t make excuses. So, I’ll give an update to get back to speed: Winter ended in the northeast, but not before tearing …

Great Grandmom

Sometimes in life you are gifted a great treasure.  One that is special and irreplaceable.  For us, that special person is Great Grandmom. The grand matriarch of the family and truly an ageless beauty.  We feel blessed to have her in our lives, still going strong in her 90s. Wishing her a special birthday and …

Snow

Last Wednesday, we were hit with another round of snow.  The boy, of course, was happy because school was cancelled.  He spent most of the day playing video games with his buddies.  When did that become such a thing, complete with head phones and team events! By mid-afternoon, the snow began to taper off. With …

Valentine

We spent a quiet night at home on Vakentine’s and I wouldn’t have wanted it any differently.  At home, with my two boys and three pups.  Chocolates for everyone.  Life is good. Zachary, for his part, loved the Valentine Cards from school…not the cards, mine you, but the candy  He got cards and gifts from …

Super Bowl

So last Saturday after out basketball game, the boy wasn’t hungry. He went upstairs to play with his buddies.  As day shifted into night, still no signs of hunger.  Weird, I thought. The boy is not eating. Aroubd 5, Z came downstairs to eat and while in the kitchen..the big one occurred.  A massive throw …

Basketball

It’s been a tough basketball season.  We won our first game last weekend in a nail biter.  With 40 seconds left, our left wing hit a shot to seal the win.  It was so rewarding to see how excited the boys were and after several losses was well deserved But that hat excitement was short …

Winter

Its no secret that mommy is not a winter lover. In fact, I really do believe that the artic wind is my calous enemy.  How could it be so cruel!  It’s as if we taunt each other while running.  Me seemingly running in place while 20 mph winds blast me from all directions.  Doesn’t it …

Basketball

Yesterday we played our third game and although we played much better, we still didn’t get the win.  Not the start that mommy wanted, but the team continues to improve.  Matter of time before we get our first win. With that said, the boys took their pictures on Saturday.  It was cute to see some …

Basketball

Last weekend, we played our first basketball game.  Unfortunately, we didn’t get the win. I was super happy how they battled back after being down by 8 in the first half.  The final, 12-8 became a close one after Zachary made his first shot.  With only a minute and a half left, we ran out …

Baseball

Its been awhile since we’ve had any baseball updates.  For the past couple of years, the boy has pitched with training in the form of Tom House videos.  And while he did an okay job, we knew this year he really needed mechanic lessons.  After much searching, we settled on a pitching clinic in Wilmington. …
