Georgia Beauty

Tres we are not even in Kansas anymore

Hungry Catapillars

We went on line to order our 5 larvae and waited ….and waited…and waited for them to get here. It actually only took a week but if felt like longer with the “our […]
Goodnight Moon
Our family and about half the neighborhood kids walked out to the pier to observe the super moon tonight. It was absolutely gorgeous. My camera did not capture the beauty or size of the moon’s appearance. Hope you got a chance to check it out as well. Goodnight super moon, see ya in another 18 years.

I normally can never stay committed to a book this long but every page holds a powerful message. Paul’s ability to not lose […]
Happy St. Patricks Day
Natalie and Kobe were excited to be able to wear green today to school instead of their traditional uniform. Natalie wore green p.j.’s to bed last night just in case someone got up earlier than her and tried to get in a pinch. The day was just what I needed after a busy week. After work I chose to ignore […]

The book was about a man who had lost what he felt was everything worth living for. He gave up his life […]

A Visit…Just Because
