I can’t even fathom how much it would cost to take our family of six to a NBA Indiana Pacers game with lower level tickets. I’m thinking it could pretty much pay for a vacation somewhere warm. But when six tickets were offered for FREE through a friend of Brad’s in his professional organization, we [...]

These simple hot deli sandwiches are a family favorite. It makes for a quick dinner, an appetizer, or you can even make extra and freeze these for fast lunches. We love these for family get-togethers this time of year and they pair wonderfully with a warm bowl of soup. Every time I’m meal planning Brad [...]

Believe it or not our soon to be five year olds {insert panic} have never sat on Santa’s lap until this year. Between RSV lock downs when they were little and not putting a huge emphasis on Santa in our home, it’s just never happened until we had the opportunity last month at the Christmas [...]

I will never forget the uncertain days that followed Brad’s mom’s diagnosis of breast cancer. The “C” word shook us to the core, like it’s so famous for doing. It filled us with shock, fear, grief, sympathy, and anxiousness. Initially, the prognosis looked grim; Shadows on x-rays, suspicious symptoms, and larger tumors than initially predicted. [...]

I’ve been collecting and drooling over some easy fall treats and goodies for kids over on my “Falling for Fall” Board on Pinterest, that I just HAD to share! I love how baking and fall go hand in hand. Add some kids helping out {and licking the bowl} and it’s the perfect equation! Here’s [...]

How does a family of six ride one bike? In style via a surrey, of course! We recently rented this set of wheels from Wheel Fun Rentals at White Water State Park and leisurely explored the canal downtown Indy. We weren’t sure if we could squeeze every one in to a single surrey, but we [...]

Do you like lists? I do simply for the pleasure of checking something off! {Confession: Sometimes I even write down things I’ve already completed just to check it off!} Although it was quite a memorable and enjoyable summer, it slipped away so quickly that I wasn’t able to do everything that I’d planned in my [...]
