Hello again!



Well, apparently, it was time a for a long blogging break...not of my own choosing. Somehow, I locked myself out of my blog which resulted in failing to renew my blog, which resulted in it being deleted! I have spent most of my life staying on top of all the tech things, and here I am scrambling to figure out how to maneuver back into the world of blogging! Motherhood!!! It has kept me busy and a bit side tracked. Oops.

Yall, I LOVE my blog friends, and I just love the ability to capture snap shots of our life, so I decided to jump back in with a new blog and new name that capture a bit of our world now.

To recap, we have had a delightful full and blessed spring! Josh and I started spring off on the right foot with a quick, and much needed trip to New York City for an early anniversary celebration. We got to sleep in, eat delicious food, visit The Met, and view NYC from the Top of the Rock! You either love or hate that city, and we definitely fall into the love category.

On April 25th, we celebrated an entire decade of marriage! How quickly time flies when you are having fun.

Miss Evie grace completed her Pre-K year (very excitedly!). We used a mish-mash of Five in a Row, All About Reading and Handwriting Without Tears. She taught herself how to write every letter in the alphabet, read her first words (DAD, MOM, CAT), has mastered most of the alphabet, and grew leaps and bounds with her artwork. She takes it so seriously, and I love to watch her grow and bloom.

Our Ella bug has spent the last few months testing her independence (and keeping mommy on her toes!) as she makes that gentle leap from toddler hood to preschooler. She is very confident that she wants to start preschool now, as she wants to be a big girl. She loves learning about colors, shapes, and the alphabet. She's also obsessed with PJ Masks, horses and My Little Pony.

The rest of our spring has centered around our backyard, nature walks, and visits with friend & family. It has been good. So good.
