The colder weather has come to the Northwoods, so sending little Anya into the big ole warehouse facility at gymnastics can be a bit chilly for her. I bought some dancewear velour (thick, 4-way stretch velour and *SHINY*) during my […]
This was a pretty quick make for the girl. She has already lost two teeth, so I am a bit late. In my defense, the first one she lost was on our trip to Seattle this summer, while we were […]

Ah, it is that time of year where kids travel from house to house with sacks ready to ransack the candy supply. They get to dress up in their favorite character and eat lots of candy. Oh, and the candy […]
Kailan got 4 new fish from the pet store after we couldn’t find anymore survivors in the pond. Unfortunately, one of them didn’t make it a week. Kailan is such a soft heart, and got teary-eyed when he found Dragon […]
