A Visit from Grandmom, the Film

by meganupdated on August 18, 2016August 18, 2016 Leave a Comment on A Visit from Grandmom, the Film

This past spring my mom, fondly known as Grandmom, came up for a visit in between school sessions. She was able to stay for just over a week and as always, it wasn’t nearly long enough. Mom has visited a total of four times and each time we’ve done something new and different. This time, the …

Visiting the Matanuska Riverfront

For the past two years we’ve gone clamming over the 4th of July weekend, but this year, wouldn’t you know it, that weekend has some of the worst tides for the whole season. Well, we must have our clams and so we’re celebrating the 4th a week early! We’ll be leaving in a few minutes and …

Memorial Day = A Day to Remember

This year for memorial day, since it fell during my part-time maternity leave, we decided to take advantage of the super-extended weekend (four days instead of three days) and leave the city far behind us. After church Sunday night, we finished loading up the Xterra and left the house by 9:30. That is one of …
