Life as a Yowler

I had a rough day today emotionally. I went shopping this weekend with my mom’s side of the family. I had so much fun. I felt like a human being.  I felt normal. I was able to relax, laugh, have fun, pee alone, hang with cousins, and enjoy life so much. I hate to even…

We tagged along with Brandon as he had meetings in Chicago. We wanted to see a few things. The main event was going to be the Willis(formerly known as The Sears) Tower skydeck tour. Brandon dropped us off at Chic Fil A during his first meeting. We love the food and there is usually a…

My heart is heavy today for Brandon’s Extended family. His second cousin, Sadie was only ten years old.  Just like that her family is without her. They obviously had no idea that when their daughter ran out the door, that would be the last time they would ever see her alive. It really puts things…

I could write a whole blog or I could just keep it short. Yesterday.Was.Awful. Just kidding. I’ll keep going. Brandon went to his morning meeting and gave me strict instructions to have the motor home cleaned up and ready to go by 10:30am. This was no easy job since we had been parked for three…

How do we pass the time on a rainy day stuck  inside the RV? We play games. Down by the Bay was going great. The younger kids were rhyming and being adorable. Then Joah chimes in…..”have you ever seen a Jeannie(grandma) with a really big weenie?” 😳😳😳  Did I handle it appropriately. No I did…

Our first stop along the way was Lexington, Ohio. Brandon had a meeting in amish country and we stayed a couple extra days so he could do some hunting. Brandon grew up in Ohio and a lot of his cousins have kids our kids age. I love when my kids can play with their cousins.…

We are on the road again. I have had several weeks off from traveling and it’s been very relaxing and nice. I’ve fallen into a routine of school with the kids and even some exercising and healthier habits for myself….and Brandon too. It’s just so much easier to eat healthy and exercise at home.  I…

First of all we had a bat in the house. It was a first for us. I knew it would happen eventually. Our home is way back in the woods, and every time we go out at night I see them swarming the sky above our house. It gives me the creeps just thinking about…

Life has been busy around here lately. We’ve been working hard at school. We even made another short trip to Ohio last weekend.  I rode down with my mom(who was meeting her sister and mom for the weekend). My mom dropped me and the kids off at Brandon’s mom’s house on her way. We stopped…

After our Labor Day campout last weekend, Bethany took the three oldest kids back with her to Ohio. Brandon had plans to drive down to Ohio to pick up his Granpa Walker(his mom’s dad) and drive him up to Michigan. Brandon has been wanting his grandpa to come see the business. Brandon’s grandpa had his…
