Our House, Our Home

July 30, 2009 – 8:57 am

The sign has been in our yard for more than a week now, but still, every time I see it I think, Who put that there? Why would anyone want to leave such a lovely, old house? But then I remember I put that there—or rather, I had our Realtor put that there—and I’m the […]

Thanks, Jenna and Greg, for hosting another great Island Party! (And thanks, Olivia, for babysitting Sophie—the night out was so much fun.) “Drink, and dance and laugh and lie,Love the reeling midnight through,For tomorrow we shall die!(But, alas, we never do.)” —Dorothy Parker

Happy Birthday, Jill!

July 25, 2009 – 10:44 pm

Andy’s mom was in town for her birthday, which was July 14th, so we were all able to celebrate with dinner at Trio’s, and cake and presents back at our house. Happy birthday, Jill! “There is still no cure for the common birthday.” —John Glenn

Tucker and the Skunk

July 25, 2009 – 10:29 pm

It had been a long day of working on the house. It was after midnight. Andy let Tucker out, then back in, then immediately back out. I actually like the smell of a skunk from a distance. I’ve never smelled one so close, though. And now the smell was on Tucker (who, unfortunately, got sprayed […]

Hanging Out with Grandma & Grandpa

July 25, 2009 – 9:59 pm

This summer has been so much fun. I’ve been able to hang out with Grandma and Grandpa Uhl so much! First they came for Dad’s birthday, then they came for an entire week to help us get our house ready to put “on the market,” something Mom and Dad talk about constantly although I have […]

Connor Den Herder’s Baptism

July 21, 2009 – 9:17 am

I recently had the privilege of attending Connor’s baptism. Family and friends, including Angel and Zoey, gathered for food after at Christine’s parents’ house. Congratulations, Connor! “Baptism is, in fact, much more than a ritual conferring membership in a community, as many people conceive it nowadays. It is a process of birth, through which a […]

First Fireworks

July 21, 2009 – 8:56 am

The Sunday after Fourth of July we had a delicious steak dinner on the porch at my parents’ house while … Sophie played with her basket of toys outside. Then we played with a ball while waiting for it to get dark outside. Once dark, Sophie was practically asleep in my lap. This, however, worked […]

Andy’s Birthday Present

July 21, 2009 – 8:30 am

July 5th we enjoyed amazing seats at the Reds game thanks to tickets Andy got from his parents for his 30th birthday. Sophie enjoyed her first Popsicle … … which she loved. Andy enjoyed all the free food! The game, unfortunately, wasn’t too exciting (Reds lost). It was a perfect present. “A hot dog at […]

Fourth of July

July 17, 2009 – 2:51 pm

This year I was so excited to take Sophie to the Ft. Thomas Fourth of July parade. We walked to the end of my good friend Linda’s street, so as to watch the parade with her. Sophie saw bands, … fire trucks and engines, … the lawn chair brigade, … floats and … well, this! […]

Jenna’s Birthday Party

July 17, 2009 – 2:42 pm

This year I got to go to Jenna’s birthday party! I played with my new friend Olivia … slid down Jenna’s slide and … fell asleep on a quilt, while Mom, Dad and all of Jenna’s friends watched a movie outside! (Mom can’t believe she didn’t get a picture of Jenna on her birthday.) Happy […]
