Simple Happinesses

February 2, 2012

I thought all these pictures on my memory card were random, but really, they’re not. They all capture small, simple happinesses.

Our Monticello Trip

January 31, 2012

I’m a little slow at getting these up, I know! We’ve been studying the U.S. Presidents this year, and when we read about Thomas Jefferson, the kids became really fascinated with his Virgina home, Monticello.  Since we live not terribly far from there, I thought it would be fun to go take a tour and [...]

The kids and Mr. FG insisted that I open my gifts first, which was sweet. They kept making me close my eyes in between presents. I was [...]

A park outing (also, why a $40 park membership is so worth it!)

October 25, 2011

For the last few years I’ve plunked down $40 for an annual membership to our local park system. Why? Because once I’ve spent the $40, I’m much more motivated to actually go to the park. Something about having to pay for it each time makes me loathe to go, so even if I really only [...]
