We were in need of another camera. And by in need I mean I wanted one. Groupon Goods had the Kodak Easy Share Z5010 as one of their available purchase. I waited until the very last hour and then ordered mine. I have been very pleased with it so far. Here is a sampling of [...]

Last Thursday, Jacob and I stopped at Menchie’s Frozen Yogurt shop in Fairlawn for an impromptu afternoon date while running some errands. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but have been wanting to check it out. They had me at with their uber cute logo and bright pink exterior, so I knew I had to [...]

Hello New Year. I know we are a little late in saying it being a week into 2012 already. We’re super excited about these next twelve months even though they will probably fly by quicker than the last twelve. Kendra and I have been quiet with the blog for the past few weeks. We promise [...]

Lehman’s Adventure

Down a winding, tree-lined country road in Kidron, OH sits Lehman’s Hardware Store. Part store. Part museum. All adventure. The intoxicating, earthy scent of smoked wood wrapped us in comfort and nostalgia as soon as we entered. Even for those of us who grew up exclusively in cities, with our knowledge of country living limited [...]

My 2 1/2-year-old (almost 3 in February) son can turn our iPad on, navigate to the Netflix icon and choose a movie of his liking. While there are a few of you out there shaking their heads, I’m accepting this as a sign of the times and trying to embrace his–what seems to be–innate sense [...]

The time between taking down Halloween decorations and putting up Christmas decorations usually is my favorite time to decorate. However, this year November was bit of a blur. Now with Thanksgiving two days away, I’ve given up on the idea of Thanksgiving decor and moving onto Christmas. I do have one little morsel left of [...]
