A Sneak Peek

Here's a peek at one of the many activities our family enjoyed over the last couple of weeks. More pictures and videos to come when I actually have time to sit down and put them together.

Challenging myself

I've decided to give myself a challenge. I've noticed that I only blog about really big, important events in mine or my family's life. Which is great, but I seem to forget about the day-to-day activities that are equally as important. Since this blog has become somewhat of a journal for me (which is sad, considering I only post every month or so, if that), I'm going to try and blog at least 1-2 times a week. Hopefully that will motivate me to take more pictures of my kids and write down the funny things they do or say every day. Wish me luck!

Finding hidden treasures

We've had our piano for a while now. Every time we played it there would be keys that would stick or would make strange noises. So the other day Bill decided to take the piano apart to see what was going on.


I've seen the inside of a piano a number of times, but it still amazes me a little bit that someone took the time to put that all together.

After taking apart quite a bit of the piano, we finally found the culprit for part of the problem

I found the one called "Being the Mom" particularly funny.

So now our piano works marginally better. It's still somewhat out of tune, and there are other problems that may or may not get fixed someday, but we are glad we have it.

A sure sign your kids love your FHE treats

Their face and hands are covered in chocolate and they have a huge grin on their face.
