I know my last post promised to be very long. But as I approached the reunion part of our trip, I realized that I was going to need to dedicate an entire blog just to this topic alone. So I apologize. As you should totally know by now, we are a Michigan State University household.…
We planned a one-day visit to Cedar Point into our vacation. This was a great thought because: We had the time. Aside for my husband, none of us has ever been. Both boys are tall enough to ride most of the rides. I scored free tickets by using my hoarded Coke points. We really didn’t…
So tired… This will be a marathon blog post people, so grab a glass of wine and settle in. We are home. It was a wonderful vacation. I wanted to blog more along the way but there wasn’t time and there wasn’t great internet. And frankly, I was exhausted. You can read Part 1 and…

I’m sitting here watching the final stage of the Tour de France wondering to myself why it’s not on a network tv channel. It’s been on NBC Sports this year, which is great…but still. More people need to watch this amazing event. I know the Tour took a lot of heat for all the doping…
A great birthday party with Creeper cake pops! Here’s a picture recap. Can’t believe my little man is 10 years old!
Scene: My house, Friday night. I’m in my penguin pajamas around 6:30pm as I’m exhausted and ready for bed. However, this is the first weekend in a LONG time where we have ZERO PLANS. My husband comes in from outside and says, the Duncans are here. That’s my sister’s family. So I go outside, in…
