A Trip to Kentucky

By
Brent, Bailey & Bri

It's true. I haven't posted anything in over a month. Sorry! A lot has been going on :-) We'll start in March. I have an awesome friend named Bri who surprised me with a trip to visit her and and her family in Kentucky! I had not met Bailey in person, only admiring beautiful pics and videos online. So while I love me some Bri, this trip was really about Miss Bailey! We went to the Kentucky Horse Park, Claudia Sanders for lunch, drove around some gorgeous towns and had fun! Oh- and her hubby watched a crying, upset Bailey so we could sneak out and go to a movie. 
Joyful Noise was joyful indeed, but Bailey was very happy to have mama return! 

A very old carriage. One barn held a series of carriages from different eras.
I love a good museum! This room had huge models and displays suspended from the ceiling. Some life size. Truthfully, I was a little scared when I first entered. And it was super dark.

Great displays on the role of African Americans in horsemanship and Kentucky.

After you clean your room...

By
This evening Cassidy revealed to me a small secret to keeping her occupied. After dinner she asked me if she could watch a show. We don't have tv, but we do have netflix through the wii on our tv and we watch all the greatness that PBS and Nickelodian have to offer! Except for Caillou because I think he's kind of whiny. Anyway, she gets to watch limited amounts of Diego, Dora, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word World, etc and sometimes we throw in some Cosby Show for good measure. She'll pick two shows and watch one, 20 minute episode of each and then we call it good. Well tonight when she asked for a show, I told her she could watch one episode of her favorite after she cleaned her room. She went into her room and as she started putting toys away, she started playing with them. She'd go to put books away and start "reading" them. Twenty minutes later she'd start putting crayons away, then start drawing with them. Ten minutes later she'd start putting awa...

Back 2 School 2024/2025

By
 The start of a new school year is scattered and quite full as we begin the fall with a bang on multiple campuses.  We gave Savannah a few options for her start to middle-school. She was at WES for 3 years and had made a solid, core group of friends- super strong connections! All of them were headed to the zoned school of Greylock regional, grades 7-12. Going to Greylock wither friends would mean we would have to drive her, school choice does not provide a bus. It would mean she could not do all the things because of the commute and our schedules, her options to get involved would be limited. If she chose to go to the school we were now zoned for, she would be walking distance to Miss Halls and could do alllll the things- go for it! Join every club, try out for the plays, do all the sports.  Y'all already know, Savvy chose her friends lol. It is hard. And she is so happy. And never complains, because she understands with this choice, her options are limited. We have been ...

The Weekends

By
The weekends have a new meaning to me now.  Saturdays are the perfect day because I get unlimited access to Cassidy. During the week I have to share my time between work, chores, tasks, and more. Sunday we have church and prep time for the week. But Saturday is magical. Saturday is for adventures in the park and incredible views in the mountains you can only reach by foot. Saturdays are for sleeping in or getting up early and making a big breakfast. Saturdays we sometimes stay in our pajamas, and others times we get all dressed up for no reason. On this particular Saturday Cassidy and I met up with some friends at church for the first End of Summer Fair. We had a good time...
