Happy Birthday Dad

Dad’s 75th Birthday
Forever 83.
Today would have been Dad’s 84th birthday. He’s not here to celebrate with us, so I thought today would be a good time to reflect on the last 3 months.

Lent Let-Go
40 Days, 40 Things
Each year for Lent, people give up a variety of things: Facebook, fast food, soda, TV.
Lent is a time for reflection and sacrifice.
One thing that we can give up is stuff. We have a lot of it. We have stuff we don’t need. We have stuff we don’t use. We have stuff we don’t even know we have.
For Lent, I would like to set aside 1 item a day to donate. I’m really hoping the kids will get on board because they have tons of stuff, too.
What are you giving up for Lent?
National Sticker Day

Happy Independence Day!
The last several years, we’ve been very fortunate to have friends at Imagine Real Estate give us tickets to this wonderful celebration. We ventured out for a TinCaps game followed by the City of Fort Wayne fireworks.
It’s always a fun event that the kids really look forward to. They have some of their favorite foods, a splash pad, and fireworks! There’s a baseball game, too, if you like that sort of thing.
The TinCaps won. It ended up being 4-0. Even though it was a pretty sad showing for the Captains, I still love seeing my team win.
I totally skipped the bun for my burger. The bread would have wasted valuable stomach space. I needed the room for wings that’d be served in the 4th inning and apple crisp that’d be served in the 7th. Needless to say, no one went home hungry last night. There was plenty of food, soda, and a cash bar. Continue reading
