Thankful Thursday! NOLA’s Restaurant

November 18, 2010

We go to New Orleans a few times a year…and we love NOLA’s Restaurant.

The last few times that we’ve been, I’ve let them know ahead of time that I’m vegan…and they have created an entire vegan meal for me. It was spectacular!!
It’s so nice to get a gourmet meal, prepared by a chef…versus a salad…hold [...]

Thankful Thursday! Parents

November 4, 2010

Today, I want to express my thanks to our parents!
We are blessed with my parents and my mother-in-law who are always available to babysit for us. Both sides are so great with our son, that we have no worries while they’re in charge.

October 21, 2010

Thankful Thursday! Big wheels keep on rollin’

August 26, 2010

My son learned to ride his bike without training wheels!
He’d been riding with training wheels, since he was old enough to get on a bike…but he just wasn’t getting the art of balancing.
A few weeks ago I read that it’s easier to learn without the training wheels. So, I took off his training wheels, lowered his [...]

Thankful Thursday! Hot Date Night

August 12, 2010

Since my son was born, my husband and I have tried to go out on a date – just the two of us – at least once a month.
My son knows it happens and has never gotten worked up about it. In fact, it’s so much a part of our routine that we have a [...]

Thankful Thursday! Gone are the days of Power Rangers

August 5, 2010

I am thankful that we no longer have to watch things like Barney or Power Rangers, although my son never really liked them in the first place! Yay!
