Marine Corps Nomads

One of the greats thing about the Ultimate Blog Party is that you come across some great blogs. One of the blogs that I came across is Reviews by Heidi, and she’s having a great Countdown to Spring contest to lift our spirits as we wait from spring to come. She’s giving away some great books and a subscription to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine. I personally would love to get the subscription to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine, but Munchkin here really wants The Lucky Foot Stables series. Oh, the decisions that one is forced to make. So, if I have…

Ultimate Blog Party

Welcome to our humble online home. Thanks for stopping by. Can I offer you some sweet tea? Maybe some homemade brownies, chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies, or peanut butter cookies?

There was a horrible buzzing sound around my ear. I pulled the cover up over my head hoping that it would go away. I couldn’t stay under the covers forever, so I slowly pulled the cover down. Hmm… no buzzing. I start to drift off to sleep. Bzzzzzz… Ugh! There it is again. I turn on the light and try to locate…

Our Weekend

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

We had a lovely weekend with my sister, brother-in-law, and nieces. Our weekend started by meeting them at Chick-fil-a. Since we haven’t eaten out since the beginning of January, we really enjoyed this. The girls played for a little while on the playground before we headed home. The girls had a lot of fun playing together. Since we knew that we had a full day ahead of us on Saturday, we attempted to get the girls to bed a decent time. Our Saturday started bright and early. (I had forgotten what it was like to have little ones who get…
