The freak snow storm that hit the East Coast last weekend was quite the exciting news around the Washington DC suburbs. We’ve lived here for nearly 14 years and have never had snow this early in the season. We comment every year that we’re either in shorts or winter coats for Halloween…but we’ve NEVER had…
Halloween 2011 in Washington D.C.
Last weekend, while I was at Blogalicious, I shared lunch with two wonderfully delightful women from Living Social. As a mom working from home, I love when I can find deals for my family….especially when I don’t have to leave my home to get them. Yesterday, Living Social released some survey results on Halloween trends…
Autumn Sunsets…Ahh! PSF – GMYBS
I haven’t been enjoying this beautiful time of year as much I should lately. Typically stuck behind my computer all day, I am missing some of the most beautiful scenery the Washington DC area has to offer. Luckily, last weekend I was able to take a leisurely walk at sunset around my hotel on the…
A #Blogalicious Date With Shrek – Wordless Wednesday
When my kids saw this picture of me with Shrek at Blogalicious, they asked, “Was that the REAL Shrek from the movie?!” No, kids. Sadly no. But it was still pretty fun. For more inspiring photos, check: 5 Minutes for Mom, High Impact Mom, The Bonafide Life, Shanamama, From Dates to Diapers, Not Your Mom…
Reflections on September 11th in Washington DC
The following reflections were written by my husband. You can see my own reflections on Remembering September 11 on 5 Minutes for Mom. Decisions Can Have a Lasting Impact Ten years ago… I had just celebrated my 30th birthday. I was returning to work, after recovering from hernia surgery. I was working on Holocaust restitution…
Everything Looks Better on Vacation – Wordless Wednesday
I am finally back home, and trying desperately to ease my way back into normal life while simultaneously preparing to speak at a conference this weekend and get the kids ready for the first day of school on Monday. I have consigned myself to the fact that there will be no “normal” for at least…
Time With the Girls – Photostory Friday GMYBS
It’s a girl’s week at my mom’s house. Two of my 3 sisters have been here all week, along with my mom and my oldest daughter. (oh, and my dad, two of my nephews, and three of my nieces) I love spending time with these girls. Aren’t they beautiful? I am still holding out hope…
Family Road Trips: Then and Now
When I was growing up, family vacation meant one thing…..or two, depending on the season. If it was the summer, vacation meant driving to Lake Tahoe for a week at a cabin in the same neighborhood that my mom had visited with her family when she was younger. We packed our family car tight with…
Dulles Air and Space Museum – PSF GMYBS
After a whirlwind of a camping trip that I can’t seem to stop blogging about, my dad came into town, followed by a short visit by my sister and her two kids. Rather than stay home in the air conditioning, we opted to take the group of 7 kids to the Dulles Air and Space…
My Not-Bummer Summer
I feel like I could keep posting daily about our trip to Jellystone Park. In fact, I have dozens of pictures I still haven’t shared. Our 2 nights and 2 1/2 days at the campground were the BEST days of our summer, for sure. We created memories that will not soon be forgotten. Until early…
