Pinnacle Land

On Monday I went with some friends from a local photography group to Pinnacle Land. It’s a botanical garden/hike to a pond and waterfall. There’s also a small animal section. Lots to see! I took...

Around…

Not sure what my deal is lately but blogging just doesn’t interest me at. all. Trying to hang in there though because I know I love looking back in on it and hoping this funk clears soon. We went...

It’s April.

Midnight Snack

And by midnight I mean 730pm. It’s cold and windy today. I still haven’t REALLY played with my new lens. Busy busy around here. Anyway, I thought I’d share a version of one of my fave ‘kids are in...

Timmy Talk

Today while we were sitting at the bus stop waiting for Layla to come from school I took a little video of Timmy. While looking at YouTube at my past videos I saw THIS one had 1,938 views! Holy...

There are a few things I want to share on here but tonight the spotlight goes to Timmy. Although he has been THREE for two weeks already, today was his party. I couldn’t do 2 back to back parties....

Everland

Um, hello. We went to Everland before Christmas and I never got around to posting about it. There were a million pictures and I felt overwhelmed with everything else…and then I just forgot. So…we...

6am

We have a love/hate relationship. As much as I hate to be woken up I do love being awake early and just sitting. Before I have to get dressed or be anywhere or make sure lunches and backpacks are...

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day from Korea! Last night we put the finishing touches on our valentines. Layla took hers to school and Timmy took his to a special toddler party. Lots of fun! Timmy’s Layla’s...

I Don’t Do Cold.

Well, our few days of 50* temps has turned into waking up to 6* (feels like -6. oy) and I’m so over winter it’s not even funny. I’m a homebody as it is but when it’s cold there is no leaving the...

Layla is 8: Magic Tree House Party!

Our little weirdo turned 8 on Saturday. I can’t believe we have an 8 year old. She is amazingly smart and funny and a really sweet person. She’s an awesome big sister too. I’m proud to be her mommy...

Hey all, just a quick update. No pictures from me of course because I’ve been insanely busy. Either with birthday stuff or babysitting for friends or derby stuff. It’s a busy busy time. Anywho, my...

Star Kids Cafe – Pyeongtaek

Kids Cafes here are pretty neat. This is the first time I’ve been to one. There is another one called Little Bear that a lot of people go to but I haven’t made it there yet. For 6,000w per kid...

Thrifty Nifty Fifty

A friend of mine has been borrowing my 50mm 1.8 lens for a while. The much cheaper, ghetto, version of her 50mm 1.4 that stopped working. No biggy to me. I never use it. I don’t like it. I’d much...

Heartbroken.

My dad is gone. He packed a suitcase, took everything, and left my mom. I don’t even know what to think. I’ve gone from sad, to angry, confused. I’m in shock. He was planning it. He bought a plane...

Chore List

Let me tell you a secret… I hate to clean. Haha not so much of a secret. I am no Susie Homemaker. I’m more of the out of sight out of mind type of person. If I just LEAVE my house then it’s not...

Movie Challenge

I don’t know why I’m even posting another challenge. I’ve pretty much failed miserably at the Winter Book Challenge I attempted. Still haven’t finished book 1 and I doubt I’m even half way through...

Forgotten Grandmothers – Part 1

Recently my dad sent me an email of an essay he wrote. It is about his memories of his grandmother who passed away almost 20 years before I was born. I love reading these stories and having the...

Don’t Fall Asleep…

What happens when you don’t take a nap and you end up passing out on the couch in the middle of Toy Story 3? Your parents take pictures of you. And then stick helicopters up your nose. And giggle....

DIY: Silhouette Cutting Files

I know I’ve said it before but… Santa brought me a Silhouette Cameo for Christmas! Super awesome. Except I had NO freakin idea what to do with it. Lots of plans…zero knowledge. I knew I had to...

Naptime

Yesterday during nap time I had Layla do a craft that she heard me trying to bribe Timmy with earlier in the day. He wasn’t into the idea so she did it instead. Probably cleaner that way. Maybe....

Today is the first day of Christmas break. It is also day 3 of a nasty stomach bug that has invaded our house. First Timmy, then me, now Layla. NOT fun. 3 nights of no sleep. 3 days of cleaning up...
