I have made a number of balloon garlands over the last couple of years and have honed my technique to make it surprisingly quick and easy. Sister, CeeCee and I whipped out about 60′ of balloons in an afternoon for the HOCO picture party! We wanted to have a variety of spots for the kids… Read More

HOCO 2022 {Festive Fun}

November 8, 2022November 9, 2022

John’s school celebrated homecoming week last month with the pomp, circumstance and well intended debauchery I remember from my teen years. You see, homecoming week is also junior v senior prank week around here. Our house was rolled not once, not twice, but THREE times. The kids had the best time heading out on missions.… Read More

Friday Night Lights to Gameday Saturday

September 18, 2021September 12, 2021

If I didn’t know better, I’d think I was a football fan. Ha! Don’t care too much about the sport but I love the pomp, circumstance and socializing. We have taken the boys to the high school football games since we moved here 12 years ago. We couldn’t attend in 2020 and neither could our… Read More

Some nights just deserve a place on the grid. 🎻⚡️ Some nights just deserve a place on the grid. 🎻⚡️

Whit had the incredible honor of learning from and performing on stage with Mark Wood… original electric violinist for Trans-Siberian Orchestra, creator of the iconic Viper electric violin and composer known for blending classical music with rock energy in the most unforgettable way.

And unforgettable is exactly what this night was.

Symphonic rock. Hard rock. Heavy metal. A full stage of student musicians absolutely pouring their hearts into every note with so much confidence, passion and energy.

And then there was Whit… featured cellist during Carry On Wayward Son, which already held a spot on my all-time favorites list before this night. Watching him up there completely in his element was one of those proud mom moments I know I’ll hold onto forever.

I know this video is long and maybe a little “mom scrapbook” coded… but this one deserved its square among the memories and adventures.🤍

Being their mom is the greatest joy and adventure Being their mom is the greatest joy and adventure of my life. 🤍

And the sweetest gift of all was getting to spend the entire week with them… and Mother’s Day too. ✨✨
