The holidays didn’t feel like the holidays until my family drove up to Pennsylvania for a last-minute New Year’s Day party with my sister’s family. We pulled together a silly gift exchange (with a couple of real gifts mixed in there, too), threw together a traditional taco dinner on the fly, and had a…

Sugarloaf Mountain in Fall #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
My mother-in-law came to visit us last weekend, and we took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and an extra day off school to hike around Sugarloaf Mountain. We made it back with just enough time to eat some dinner before heading out to trick or treat. It was a perfect way to spend…
A Lone Fall Photo Shoot #PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot
Last fall, I swore off professional photography and officially closed the doors of my photography business. My blog had become busy enough, and frankly I was making more money for my time through my blog than I was for my photography. I just couldn’t do them both well at the same time. I think…
Cousin Power! #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
Cousin Power! While the kids and I were in Utah this summer, we spent a lot of time with cousins. My mom and dad have 14 grandchildren between the ages of 17 (almost 18) and under a year. Sadly, not all of the grandkids were together at the same time (we had one group…
Devils Tower National Monument – #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
It feels like a lifetime since we stopped at Devils Tower in Wyoming. My husband has wanted to see Devil’s Tower in person since he was a kid who loved the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and it just happened to be on the road between Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone as we…
Our Trip to Mount Rushmore #PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot
Mount Rushmore is one of those places that every American should make a point to see in person. It took us several days of driving to finally make it to South Dakota, but the time to find Mount Rushmore was worth the effort. I think that my favorite part of visiting Mount Rushmore was…
One Last Family Trip to Castle Park #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
As we prepare to load up the car and drive across the country to take my oldest daughter to college next week, we just HAD to make one last trip to Castle Park (our nickname for it, at least). Castle Park holds so many memories for us – it was a favorite of the…
Duck Pond with the Cousins #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
After iRetreat ended on Tuesday, my sister and I had fun with all the kids in Hershey. We visited a nearby duck pond and stream and let the kids loose to explore. We had a hard time convincing everyone that it was time to leave…but we DID have to feed them dinner eventually. Every…
Harmony College East 2014 #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
I never really dreamed of becoming a soccer mom. I don’t have much interest in team sports. I imagined that I’d be a piano mom or a dance mom. I never thought that I’d be a barbershop mom. This past school year, my 2nd daughter, Necco, got involved in her school’s barbershop quartet program….
Reese’s 5th Grade Graduation #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
What a day! Today started early like most school days do…but today was no ordinary school day. Today was the day of my youngest daughter’s graduation from elementary school (though they refuse to call it a graduation…). I left for an end-of-year trip with my 2nd daughter, Necco, and her high school quartet directly…
