It’s been a week for us. First the boy came down with the flu. Then a few days later, daddy got it. Somehow I’ve, so far, managed to avoid. It’s a nasty one with fever and a persistent cough. the boy is finally on the mend. t I’m currently sitting outside a warehouse in Delaware …
WIR: Jan 8
Happy New Year. Personally, I have never been happier to close out a year. It was a tough one, and I’m not entirely sure this year will be better, but it’s here and I’m ready to go. We headed back from Ohio after new year. It was a cold week, full of snow and wind. …
Christmas 2025
It’s been a really busy couple of weeks and we jumped head first into the holiday season. Up first, Thanksgiving where we were blessed with the company of this beautiful lady. Still going strong at 96. We then had the B Family Christmas. A fun day with family that went entirely too quickly. Unfortunately, I …
WIR Halloween
So, this is the first Halloween where the boy won’t be out collecting candy. He’s officially aged out of that process. It’s a sad reminder that those are bygone days. We’ll still handout and watch the little ones scrambling around the neighborhood So, I have been on furlough from work. We’ve hit the one month …
Fall Season
After a long, warm fall, it’s starting to feel colder. The sun is setting earlier. The leaves are changing color. The birds long gone. But in this mist, the boy is well into his Sophomore year. Last weekend, he attended Homecoming with a couple of his buds. Unfortunate for the ladies, he was more interested …
First Game Day

Isle of Palms Day
The next day, Mike’s parents joined us. Pretty cool, two sets of parents. The baseball boys went to the beach while we toured around the isle. Fort Sumter was on our to do list. We walked around the area. Very big cannons. Fun fact, first shot of the Civil War was fired here. We capped …
Isle of Palms
We arrived at four o clock for check in to our spectacular Airbnb. The place is beautiful and a block from the beach. Luckily, the tropical depression missed us. The next day we took in Charleston. Very hot and humid but we made it work. A plus for me was the carriage ride so much …
HBD and Happy 4th
So we got to spend the 4th with some of our favorite people. And more importantly, celebrate my mom’s birthday. After an early rise, we headed to Charolette. This pit stop was on the way to Charleston for Zach’s baseball tournament. We spent the afternoon lounging by the pool. It was hot but the pool …
This is 15
In the unimaginable, Z turned 15. Crazy how fast it’s going. It’s fun to watch him grow. H now stands 5’10 and long passed me on the height chart. His first love is still baseball. And the boy is pretty good at it. He’s got a great group of friends. It’s fun to listening to …
