New Years 2024

/

We spent our third New Years Eve with our neighbors, their beautiful girls and now their boyfriends too. We always have a great time. Lots of laughter, games and memory making moments and then ‘cause we’re old (lol) we head home before midnight and crash early.

Here’s to 2024 and all we have ahead of us!

Winterfest 2024

/

One of our favorite Holiday Traditions is attending Winterfest with the Kearney kids portion of our family. We have done it for years and I can’t imagine the holidays without this time with them. Such a wonderful time making such wonderful memories.

Full Circle Moment

/

I needed this tonight. I had myself a full childhood circle moment.

When I was very little, five or six years old, we would visit my grandparents house, they had a pantry with dutch doors and Chris (my younger brother) and I used to play restaurant and grocery store in it all the time.

I never forgot the fun we had and when Guy and I started designing our house I knew it had to have a pantry and I insisted on dutch doors just like my grandma had. The builder couldn’t find any and tried to talk me out of them but it was a nonnegotiable for me so he created them for us. I knew one day our grandchildren would use their imagination in the pantry and make the same memories I have.

Tonight our pantry became a “dinner and drink” restaurant. Benjamin was the chef and the drink maker. Avery took the orders and delivered the waters. I ordered $1 water and the free beans. The rest of the menu was out of my price range LOL.

My heart is full.
