Florida: The Beginning

By | October 11, 2011

Last week we went on our first BIG family vacation. We left our home on Friday evening and drove until about 1:30 in the morning where we stopped for the night.  We got up first thing in the morning and finished the drive down to Orlando.  The drive itself was pretty horrible.  Lots of screaming, [...]

Spanakopita, Baklava, and Horse Racing

By | August 28, 2011

Our local Greek Orthodox Church holds a Greek Festival every year.  It always reminds me of my labor with Gregs because I delivered him the day after the festival (after being in labor for 14 hours- which makes no sense since he was my third!)

By | August 23, 2011

I have been needing to do this for some time, and I finally gave in and had my hair cut last weekend. It was a drastic cut, nearly nine inches.  I would have waited until I could donate it, but hair had gotten so dry and brittle that I could not wait any longer. Goodbye, [...]

A Wonderful Lunch and A Spectacular View

By | July 4, 2011

We went to church and lunch with Mimi and Arielle! It is so much fun to meet bloggers/facebook-friends in real life. I’ve known Mimi for years and years, so it was really neat to be able to meet her face to face.  Arielle and I have had both of our kiddos with in weeks of [...]

Happy Canada Day!

By | July 2, 2011

We hopped over the border to Vancouver today.  It just so happened that our one day here is Canada Day!  We began the day with a beautiful drive up US-5 to the Canadian border.  We drove straight to Granville Island in Vancouver for a Canada Day celebration. Then we went and sat by the shore [...]

Unbelieveable Traintrack in a Basement

By | June 30, 2011

We had the privilege of viewing the train collection and train room belonging to a friend of my parents.  The man who created this room spent years working on it.  He built the entire track with different towns, factories, a carnival, and much more.  It was incredible! David, Charitina, Papa, Ambrose and I went while [...]
