Because of Mark’s work schedule, along with other family events, we decided to celebrate Easter a week early as a family. We had a lovely Holy Week – reflecting on our Savior and celebrating Passover. And then our Easter Sunday (which was everyone else’s Palm Sunday) was lovely. We got to go to church as …
We had the sweetest Valentine’s Day. Truly. Some years just hit better than others and this was one of the best. We ate delicious food, colored and talked with one another, wrote “love cards”, and just spent quality time together. It was perfect. It was one of those days, that you can’t manufacture, but where …
It was a Berning Influenza A Christmas this year! I am going to be honest, it was discouraging. This was the most widespread and longlasting sickness we have had in a LONG time. Influenza A Jacob got up the Sunday morning before Christmas and did not feel well. He had a fever and just felt …

I love Memorial Day! We woke up to some holiday decorating from Ben and had a lovely breakfast and then we went over to one of our local cemeteries. We’ve visited this particular cemetery every year since we’ve lived in northern Colorado so I am not sure if this was a first year for this …
Our love for holidays continues! We had a lovely St. Patrick’s Day. We ate loads of yummy “green” and Irish inspiried food, went on a long family walk, and learned a wee bit about our Irish heritage.

Our New Years Eve was quiet and good! We played some games, Mark went to work, I did a new puzzle, Jacob and Sarah knitted, Ben did LEGOs, and we watched some movies – what can we say, we are party animals over here! But 2024 was good to us for the most part. We …
