We had a good trip out to Pennsylvania this last weekend to support Caleb in his Regional Gymnastics Meet. We felt lucky it wasn’t too far away for us but we stayed over Friday night so we didn’t have to rush to be there at 8:00 a.m. Saturday morning. Really, staying in a hotel is [...]

Last weekend we were able to play host to our friends, the Iversons, as they came back to see all of us they left behind when they moved to Boston. A lot had changed in 8 months, like their ‘new’ baby, Ellis, who Hannah couldn’t get enough of . . And two little kids who [...]

Saturday was the USA Mens’ Gymnastics New Jersey State Championships. This was the first time Caleb was able to compete with his level and age group because it was on a Saturday. He was excited to actually be there with his teammates. Throughout the season his All-Around score has risen, although his events have fluctuated [...]

Caleb was able to participate in the District Pinewood Derby run-off last week. He loved sitting with the older boys from his den and getting to know them better. He was excited when he came in first in his first heat, but then indifferent as he took second and third in the other heats and [...]

Every year they have an awards ceremony to recognize groups that have worked on cleaning the community or done something to help recycle. Emma and Hannah’s Girl Scout troops painted some of the storm drains in the town to remind [...]

Cami has been very tough on her mouth. I’m contemplating getting her a mouth-guard – she would never wear it though! A couple weeks ago, we were enjoying our weekly library visit. I was being pulled 3 different directions to assist the three older kids in finding ‘just the right’ books. Emma had a desire [...]

I don’t write very often on this blog – but here I am again, two times in just as many weeks. Don’t worry, Becca will be back shortly. Once again, I am writing because this is definitely a subject that Becca has no interest in. I started the week by filling in my bracket for [...]

My sister’s family gave the younger kids a plate kit for Christmas. They all designed their own plate on a piece of paper then sent them away to be made into a plate. The wait to have them done was long (5-7 weeks) but they finally came a couple weeks ago . . . It [...]

My name is Becca and I have an addiction that only comes around at Easter time. Is this a problem? These caught my eye in the candy section of Target today . . . I only bought 3 bags. The traffic got a little backed up on the way home so I tore a tiny [...]

More than a little time has passed since the last post, which I have been reminded about repeatedly, since the responsibility naturally falls on me to write about the Daddy-Daughter Dance. Becca would have graciously written this post (which would have meant that you could have had a much better reading experience at least one [...]
