My three boys
The weather has been gorgeous lately and I have been keeping my office door open. Yesterday Chris joined the boys to “watch” the stuff going on outside and I jumped out to take a picture. They are SO

Stop and check out the street musicians
You never know who it might be!
Joshua Bell did a “stunt” with the Washington Post recently where he played in a Metro stop at rush hour. Check out the video:

Endeavor “boom” tonight
So we were sitting out in the backyard tonight enjoying a nice fire in the fire pit. The weather is perfect! All of a sudden we heard (and felt) a BOOM! What the heck? Chris jumped up wondering what

Plain yogurt

Sandra finally learns to snow ski
Chris has been dying to take me snow skiing, but I\’ve been dragging my feet. Everyone I know seems to go and come back with broken bones, need surgery, etc. It pretty much freaked me out. But we were
Having a fireplace
Since we live in Orlando we never really have a need for a fireplace, in fact we only run our heat about two days a year, but on our trip to Gatlinburg we had a fireplace in our cabin and it was awesome!
Cades Cove – Great Smoky Mountains National Park
On our way back from Knoxville we decided to take a detour through Cades Cove in the National Park. It turned out to be a several hour detour but well worth the drive. We were hoping to see at least one
