A couple of months ago I wrote about the camper we used to take to a lakeside campground each summer. The first year we went I learned a very important lesson; how to swim. To me it seemed like we had one of the best spots. The lake had a huge dock that must have … Continue reading Learning To Swim

Buying A House
This is a great post to have today because my brother is closing on his house today. I had originally planned last year to have this posted today so it’s funny it happened to line up on the same day. Buying our house was quite the process. Reading through this after writing it, it seems … Continue reading Buying A House
The Great Camper Fire of '99
The Great Camper Fire of ‘99 I don’t remember what year this actually happened. I just know it was at my fourth home when I was a kid. That would put it somewhere around 1999-2001. When we lived at my third home my mom’s boyfriend bought an RV style camper. I’m not sure of the … Continue reading The Great Camper Fire of '99
Why I Almost Waited
Leading up to starting my blog I was super excited. I had spent months planning how I would organize sections and writing lists of topics I would write about. And during that time I spent countless hours doing research on the topics I wanted to write about how to actually start a blog. The big … Continue reading Why I Almost Waited
Turning 30
I turned 30 a week ago. In the months leading up to it everyone made a big deal about it saying how it’s a big birthday to hit. They said the day I turn 30 I’ll wake up suddenly in tons of pain and my limbs won’t work anymore. That’s how I was a couple … Continue reading Turning 30

When we applied to adopt him we were told there were five others who had applied before us but they would take the application just in case. I got a call at work on December 26th asking for me to contact our … Continue reading Meet My Pet: Lucky

But I like to have it written down so I can keep track of things in case I ever do have an opportunity to … Continue reading My Bucket List
Growing Up On Halloween
Halloween was always a big thing in my family growing up. By the time I was born it was already a big thing so I don't know if it was something my sisters started or if it was before them. We always went all out with decorating our house, both inside and out. We had … Continue reading Growing Up On Halloween
Meet My Pet: Onyx
This isn't actually Onyx, but it looks exactly like him. Shortly after buying our house we decided we wanted to get a dog. We never got one before because we weren’t sure how often we would be moving from rental to rental. The last place we were in had outdoor space for a dog but … Continue reading Meet My Pet: Onyx
Kitten Dumping
Around the time I was in second grade, we were in our third home. It was a nice little two-story house which was cool because the house we had moved out of was only one story. This meant we could go from having one room for all 4 of us to having 2 to a … Continue reading Kitten Dumping
