One of my favorite sayings is, “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!”. This weekend we took the kids to see “Wildlights”. Wildlights is a display of over 3 million twinkling Christmas lights at the Columbus Zoo. When you walk through [...]

Byron has had a loose tooth for about 2 months now, the new one came in behind the old one, and the tooth needed to come out! The kids would be playing outside and they’d all come running in screaming, “Byron lost a tooth!”. My first question would be, “Is it the one that needs [...]

This weekend Scott’s parents brought over a table for us that is an Amish heirloom. The table belonged to Scott’s great-grandfather, Sam C. Beachy. We were talking about this at the dinner table tonight, and Landon said, “When I get my house, I call dibs on it. I want my kids to say it’s was [...]
