We went grocery shopping. We had lunch at the Olive G. with Doyle and Gretchen and Cora. We attempted to go to Adventure […]

Jake in NC – Days 5 & 6

Posted on July 15, 2007February 10, 2011by sarah

Lots to report this time… Yesterday, Jake and I walked into the hoppin’ town of Lewisville and scored some coffees from Casanova’s. Then, Derek’s sister’s little boy came over.

Jake in NC – Boring Day 3

Posted on July 12, 2007February 10, 2011by sarah

Nothing exciting on day #3. Isaac slept until 8:00 and so it was a little bit of an off day for him. He is really fighting naps and bedtime these days. It’s frustrating. We did make a trek to Wal-mart to buy formula.And we watched The Barnyard. That’s it.

Favorite Candy

Posted on July 11, 2007February 24, 2017by sarah

My favorite candies: 1. sweetarts. 2. sprees (hard, not chewy). 3. nerds (not rainbow flavored, though). 4. sour patch kids (these would rank much much higher, except that they hurt my teeth and peel layers of skin off of my tongue). 5. blow pops (see blow pop post). honorable mention: gobstoppers, skittles, runts, fun dip
