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 ...
Misc
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!) ...
We went to the zoo!
For James’ Christmas gift this past Christmas, I pre-made/paid for 12 dates, one per month. While most of them were just for us, I did include a couple family dates, and May’s date was one of those! So last weekend we packed up the car (how much could we possibly need on a 4-hour excursion?? ...
Indy Mini 2012
Though not my (James) proudest running moment, the race was bitter sweet. Bitter in that I ran nearly 20 minutes slower than I did two years ago and sweet because finishing a half marathon is a fete in and of itself. With 30,000+ runners the race is full of excitement at every stretch of the race—specially being able to run ...
How life has changed
My piano is dirtier than ever before. (Spring cleaning did change that…at least for the next week or so!) Our computers have evolved. Warm drinks are enjoyed in non-traditional mugs. Our bottom drawer has a few, select items in it… …while our top drawer is over-flowing with our “don’t let Corban touch this!” items. My ...
Great {Un}Expectations
We didn’t expect to love the house as much as we did. We didn’t expect it to scream our names in its design as loudly as it did. We didn’t expect that meeting the home owners themselves could be so enjoyable. And we certainly didn’t expect that Corban would stick his hand through the privacy ...
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 ...
Kite Flying Weather
We had a nice blustery day this past weekend. So James pulled out his most beloved kite and shared one of his favorite pastimes with his son. Corban loved it! He didn’t even know that the wind wasn’t completely cooperative. (I’m sure Murphy was involved in some capacity. Ugh.)
Matching Games
Do you have any friends who are always doing kind things (like watching your kiddos) and never accepting anything in return? I do. So I had to get smart crafty. What momma turns down things for her kids? I made little Miss M here her very own fabric matching game. Aren’t the fabrics SO fun ...
