Winter Break
Today marks the beginning of winter break. That’s two whole weeks of Holiday and no school! WOO HOO! Of course that meant this week we were treated to many a holiday program. And having three girls in three different schools meant three different programs. Kinsey started us off this week with her very first choir […]

I think I’ll go to Boston!
I went to Boston a few weeks ago just before Thanksgiving to visit my bestie Christina and her husband Dave. We stayed at Christina’s parent’s Cape house, which was so beautiful! They took us all over the city and fed us until I thought they were going to have to roll me to the airport! […]

MBA!
This last Wednesday marked a very exciting time for us! Todd has earned his MBA! We have waited and worked 3 long years for this day. I am so excited! Though this doesn’t mark the end of our post grad endeavours as we have one more Masters to go (bring on the MSF). But it […]

O Christmas Tree!
Sydney’s birthday has past and we all know what that means! Its Christmas tree time! Unlike my wonderful would-be-twin in Norway who waits to put up her tree until Christmas eve. At our house we put up the tree the week after Sydney’s birthday and take it down just before Kinsey’s. This way no one […]

In the News!
We got quite the surprise this week as we opened up our local news paper, the Oldham Era. Kinsey was in 3 out of 4 of the photos taken by the newspaper to showcase the SOMS talent show (including the one on the front page)! The scans are below. Just click to see them in […]

Talent Show 2008
At long last the SOMS talent show was this last Tuesday! Kinsey volunteered to be first out of the starting block and she did not disappoint! Looking gorgeous in her new dress she belted out Chasing Pavements by Adele in front of the entire school and anxious family members. We are so very proud of […]

Road Show in a Day
I am convinced the following story would make an excellent LDS film script. Preferably by the ever popular Halstorm Entertainment. Some Mock-u-mentory that chronicles one Stake’s journey into the drama and competition of the phenomenon known only to us as “The Road Show”. For my non LDS family and friends let me offer a small […]

C-A-T-S CATS CATS CATS!
Todd called me yesterday afternoon from work and asked me out to the movies. I know right! So exciting. And so we planned to head out for an evening at the dollar theater to see Nick and Nora’s Ultimate Playlist. But then right at the end of the work day Todd was given University of […]

State Cross Country
We had an AMAZING meet this last Saturday in Lexington. (Though it did feel odd not to have Aunt Heather there…we missed her). Tatie and Sydney were first to race. We expected good numbers from both as they have been running 2 miles every single day after school and on the weekends. And let me […]
