family blog, 2008–2017
Desperate title? I know. (Quick back story: I'm with the woman in Chad's family right now. We're spending the weekend together scrapbooking, shopping, eating, etc. My sister-in-law is filling out a baby book for her little boy and asked us, what we though when we…
Patrick's smile pretty much says it all For the kids fall break, we drove up to Montana to see potato harvest. The first two years Chad and I were married, he worked harvest for his dad. It is long, hard hours for 3-6 weeks with…
