I had about an hour to myself on Sunday morning in New York City last weekend. The weather was uncommonly clear and mild for December, and I took full advantage. The hour that I spent in Central Park was in extreme contrast to the hustle and bustle and excitement of the rest of the weekend….
Visiting St. Paul’s Chapel – 9/11 Memorial
On Sunday, Lori (A Day in Motherhood) and Lauren (Midget Momma) and I (yes, Lori, Lauren, and Laura) took a side-trip over to the site of the World Trade Center in hopes of seeing the new memorial. Access to the memorial is still very restricted and we couldn’t get in, but we visited St. Paul’s…
The Amazing Race – Disney/Dreamworks Mom Blogger Style
I love New York City. There’s something so magical and so completely different about it. I’ve also been to New York City enough times to know that nothing is quite as easy as you might imagine (or hope) it would be. Take, for instance, the Disney/Dreamworks journey to the red carpet premiere of Steven Spielberg’s…
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…
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…
A Ride Down the Water Slide – Wordless Wednesday #linky
I wish I was back at Jellystone…. And for some extra fun, I took a video of myself riding down the water slide at Jellystone Park. It was slightly tricky to maintain my balance while holding on to a camera, but I did it. Just for you. This is 17 seconds of pure fun. For…
