Vrooom Vrooom…

There is a reason that Connor’s room is decorated with motorcycles and its because the other guy in the family has a thing for riding on 2 wheels and these days he doesn’t discriminate between those that are motorized and those that aren’t.

More creepy crawly…

JJ claims this is a moth – and I am sure he is right – but to me – its just a really big, somewhat ugly bug, and one unlike any I have ever seen. Thought I would share, one of the perks of living in the woods. I intentionally didn’t show this one to…

Roadtrip!

It had been since Cailee was just a few months old that we had last made the trip to Asheville to see Aunt Beth – it was long overdue and we were, of course, anxious for her to meet lil Connor. We decided to break up the drive there Friday night – even though its…
