Along with me were my mom and awesome husband. My dad decided to stay back “to be with Kenedee”, although my [...]

Princess Tea

My $5 Find

We had a huge rummage sale last weekend. All the money raised went to the students for mission trips, camps, and any other youth activities. While helping with organizing and pricing, I came across a little wooden rocking chair, perfect for my little Kenedee. I’ve been wanting to get her one, but didn’t want to [...]

Kenedee did really well throughout the whole photo session, I was so proud of her. I’m sure a couple of these are Christmas card worthy, we’ll see which ones we [...]

99 Balloons

Well, it’s 8:30 am and Kenedee is still asleep. This doesn’t happen very often, it was a bit of a late night last night and she did have middle of the night potty break. So, since I was laying in bed wide awake, I thought this was the perfect chance to post. 
I saw this video [...]

Family Night #7

We started the morning off by eating toast sprinkled with a [...]
