The Clegg family tradition of summer backpacking has risen again! Every summer growing up, my Dad would take us girls on a daddy daughter backpacking trip. We would go with other dads and daughters and it was a wonderful tradition with so many happy memories for me. My Dad asked if I was interested in …
Isn’t she just the cutest?! Several months ago, Sarah shared with me that she was having a hard time seeing things. It was the usual suspects: the hymn numbers at church, the board in our schoolroom, etc. So I scheduled her an appointment and they concluded that Sarah needed glasses. Her prescription is not “hefty” …
Last week we had a sort of unexpected night. Lydia has been on a wait list for a sleep study for several months now and we got a call around lunch time asking if we could take the spot for that night and we did! Of course, it was a night Mark was working, but …

Our week was just oh so lovely, and as always, is best summed up in the dozens and dozens of pictures that we took.
