Snow Storm
Yesterday, Brandon had another business meeting. He dropped us off at a Chic Fil A close by. They had a play place and we always love the food. Like I said, we love Chic Fil A…..however Brandons’s meeting went long and we were there a total of 3.5 hours. It got to be a little…

Day Two in Minneapolis
Today started with a classy breakfast. It wasn’t your typical hotel breakfast. This was in a restaurant. Brandon is a gold member at this hotel and gets one guest for free. Kids six and under were also free, so we still had a complimentary breakfast. We were slightly different than the other costumers eating though,…

Not Your Typical Superbowl Sunday
We spent today, Suoerbowl Sunday, traveling to Minneapolis, Minnesota. I made a tough decision to leave Isla with Brandon’s mom. I was very torn, but it’s so hard to travel with babies especially in the freezing cold. I knew she would be better taken care of with Lori. She isn’t addicted to nursing, and drinks…

Food Allergy
I’m going to talk about poop in this blog, so everyone brace yourselves or decline from reading. Our youngest, Isla, had a rough week last week with diarrhea. The poor girl is already so tiny. I wasn’t too worried about it. She was acting totally normal otherwise. She was eating, drinking water, and nursing like…

Winter
Winter is tough for several reasons. The main one for me, is trying to keep the most hyper kids in the world entertained. They really need outdoor time each day. When they don’t get it, I have to try my best to keep them busy to prevent them from climbing everything in sight. The other…

Catching Up
A lot has happened in the last two weeks. Week one was tough for me. God really revealed a lot to me. I spent a lot of time praying and surrendering. Week two was amazing. I really felt some breakthrough happen. God is tearing down walls that I have spent years putting up. Between negative…

Emotional Week
For those wondering, nothing in particular horrible happened. I have just been feeling really down lately. I have no energy and feel like I’m falling short in a lot of areas. Today, I felt convicted about my attitude and outlook on life. I’ve really been struggling with my emotions this week. I go from feeling…

Crazy Week
This has been one of the craziest December’s we’ve ever had. Between the last minute trip we just took(which we’re still trying to catch up from), and some other things that have come up, I am realizing how much I rely on God. Seriously, I can’t do anything on my own. It’s all because of…

Troy, Michigan
We do a lot of traveling, but rarely stay at a hotel in Michigan. A few weeks ago, we planned this weekend getaway with our friends to Troy, Michigan. We were home for two nights(from the last trip), then headed for our outing. My time at home was spent trying to catch up on laundry,…

Home Again
We made it. We lived. That’s all that matters. Forty hours straight in a mini van is not ideal. We are the filthiest form of filthy. I asked Brandon if he has a better appreciation now for how well bathed and groomed I keep our kids. I really try to keep them clean and well…
Life as a Yowler
