it’s the moment i’ve waited for all my life. well, since my sports “career” ended. in 1999. ouch. isaac had his first soccer practice last night. it’s not even really practice. and they don’t actually play games. it’s really just a bunch of soccer fun with secret skill development worked in. he had a great […]

living room campout
A while back, we set up the tent in the living room in an attempt to check off an item on our summer to-do list. Isaac was excited. He made popcorn with his dad. And we set up camp to watch a movie (rio). After the movie, there was a lot of flopping, flipping and […]

our new favorite pool
this summer, i researched joining a bunch of different pools, before deciding that the cost to go to tanglewood park’s pool was only $7 per trip and we’d have to go a lot of times to justify paying $400 or more to join any of the “private” area pools. plus, we finally paid the yearly […]
