Congratulations to Margaret! We celebrated today with donuts, strawberry milk, a trip to the World Market, Zaxby's (and the surprise visit with Margaret's godfather), followed by a trip to Costco and then to the International Market. It was a full day but of course we came home and watched Star Trek Voyager, one of...
Welp, folks, this blog started with Karol as a baby and yesterday he turned 18! He took the day off of work, served Mass with the senior priest in our diocese (who is 104!!), hung out with friends, then we took him out for dinner. Selfie by Joshua.
Due to the the pandemic, our bishop gave permission to pastors to administer the sacrament of Confirmation, so that meant that Karol was confirmed by that priest who baptised him 14 years ago.
Early in the morning of June 14th, I started feeling like I was in the zone. I started having contractions, but they weren't hard or regular, just there.

Here is Peter "talking" with himself in the foward facing camera.
So this house, wow. We didn't expect to buy as soon as we did and we certainly didn't expect to find someone as wonderful as what we did! We had three requirements for a house: 1. It needed to be on land. 2. It needed to get good internet so Joshua could work from home. 3. Location. We needed to be within a 1/2 hour...
Someone texted me the other day and let me know that my blog has been silent for three months. It's been a very busy few months. We did a trip to Michigan to visit with my cousin Paul and his family. Paul had cancer and they knew that he wasn't going to live much longer, so I wanted to see him and before he passed...
