Golf and sun, sun and golf- that’s mostly what this post is about this week. Son #3 has spent a fair amount of time after school on the golf course, playing with his high school team. He is LOVING the outdoors, perfecting his game AND working on his golfer’s tan! Last week, Hubby took the […]
It was a beautiful day when we moved on October 16th, 2015. Skies were blue and temps were cool, but not too cool. Because we hadn’t sold our old house yet, we could move things over in stages. Last Friday was the day when the big moving truck came to haul away our large items: […]
Our week started out SUPER DEE DUPER as we celebrated Sweet Pea’s 14th birthday!! Her actual birthday was Friday, so we had her “call the shots” all evening. Starting with dinner, she asked if Dad could please pick up food from her favorite restaurant- Potbellies! Of course he was happy to stop ! With the […]

Thank goodness we don’t start until September! I can tell the natives are getting a little restless around here, but they’re finding things to do! […]
[ ONE] It’s always a great day when these cuties stop by! (Son #1 and his wife) They were headed to an out of town wedding. Don’t they look nice?? They ARE nice! [TWO] Hooray for the almost finished knotty pine ceiling in the sun room of our new house! It just needs a little […]
A few of us, those who were out of bed before noon, popped over to our new house last Saturday and did a little painting. (Saving the big bucks ya know!) We just so happened to have a gallon of paint (Sherwin Williams “Coastal Plain”) in our basement that was nearly full, so we used […]
Hi and welcome back to my Week in Review, where I share pictures from my life here in the great state of Wisconsin! This week was especially chaotic- with the end of the school year, getting ready to have kids home all day and the building of our new house, I’m ready to fall down. […]
