Handsome in Uniform
This post goes out to all you OBA (OCA) students and grads. When I (Sarah) was in high school, our private academy opted for uniforms, an obviously difficult adjustment for us poor freshman upon whom fashion had given its blessing…until this moment. Trading jeans and hoodies for tan or navy khakis and red, white, or ...

SENIOR FLUTE RECITAL Several weekends ago, we drove down to OSU to watch Erin’s senior recital. It.was.incredible! We always knew we had a great performer in the family (James’ mom is a fabulous flutist as well!), but this recital just blew us away! Corban did well listening and sitting *still* (not in the vocabulary of a one-and-a-half-year-old!) ...
Art Gala 2012
This year’s Art Gala was held in support of Jared & Megan Hood, going to Tanzania, Africa and Jordan & Tirza Cone, going to Cameroon, Africa. Carrie and I set up art stations to corral the kids while their parents bid on art. Enter the chaos: Do you feel stressed? Almost 50 kids! There was even chaos ...
Crafting
When I pinned this Anthropologie-esque DIY shower curtain, I had no idea what my spring break would contain. Mary Jackson did, though. Nine hours, two bags of gummy worms, and one package of cookies later, we emerged victorious.
Fingerpainting

So I decided we needed something fun, something new, something…messy. source Corban preferred to chew on Purple Lady. Mr. F. had a blast squeezing the jellied paint. He’s had lots of practice squeezing bananas…all over my ...

A Sunny Walk
I was going to caption-ize each photo, and then I realized the photos tell the story well-enough themselves. Enjoy!
Boots, Strollers, and Skinny Jeans
The boys still were not completely adjusted to the idea of sharing their daytime mother-figure with another baby. Mealtimes were a struggle. Naptime routines elongated. Even the happy-go-lucky playtimes were spent fighting each other for the only toy in the entire house they both wanted…at the same time. Life with two kids was different, to be ...
Cloudy with a Chance of Tears
The new eight-month-old in the house brought all kinds of insecurities to my seasoned toddler. It’s only for a few weeks. Plus, it’ll bring in a little extra cash. And it’ll be good practice for when our new one arrives. So said my reason. But babies don’t follow reason. Don’t understand that other babies need ...
A lesson in Sunday school
This is an illustration of how Christ washes our sins away. 1. Write your name in permanent marker on a small square of fabric. Place it inside a heart. God created us and loves us. 2. Color your thumb with any washable marker. This will represent our sin. 3. Dirty your heart with your thumb. Color your ...
