Nobody should watch tv with the volume at level 60!

I have so many thoughts and events that have happened recently (since November) that I want to write about that it is rather overwhelming.  So, I’ve decided to pick a simple one and start there. Jake decided that getting Netflix would be a great idea.  We can stream videos to our XBox with ease.  It … Read more

All I want for Christmas is …

So I have been working on Christmas and at the request of my family I have been putting together my wish list. I find it totally hilarious to review wish lists of yore against my current wish list. I find it funny to see how my interests and desires have changed and developed year to … Read more

Confrontation

Generally speaking, I am not a confrontational person.  I consider myself a peacemaker.  I like to smooth rough spots over and ensure happiness.  In my youth I suffered some horrible teasing and I would take what was said, internalize it, and never confront the person who teased me. Tonight however, I did something that is … Read more

Anyway!  The purple convertible is mine, Jake’s is the sexy metal car with a purple stripe.  Jake did all the spray paint work on both vehicles and was also our wheel man.  I did … Read more

Kissle Couping

Fall (it went by so fast)

I cannot help but feel like we just ripped right through fall into winter.  It seems like there was so little time with fall foliage!  But, I got some awesome photographs of my nephews playing with the leaves (for like, the one day they were here before the snow moved in and made everything into … Read more

Halloween

So I’m super late with this post (since there is snow on the ground and Thanksgiving is tomorrow!) but I really wanted to post it, so I am.  First, I’ve got some pictures from Halloween.  The boys dressed up and were kind enough to model for me.  Caleb is the most patient with me, Gabe … Read more

So this past Monday night Jake and I were invited to join the Caldwell family for family night.  Can I just say FUN!! We played Uno and it was soooOOoo-o much fun to just play!  Eli is such a character.  There was a point where we kept on increasing my Dad’s deck and all the … Read more
