The wonderful, yet often hairpulling life story of a stay-at-home mom of five cuties (Hailey, Shelby, Dylan, Ashley & Logan) and the journey through life raising our family with the best hubby around (love you, Kevin), and enjoying the blessings God provides to us daily while trying to keep it all in perspective when bumps in the road arise!

Goodbye Grandma Gritter 😔
My sweet grandma G. is now at the feet of Jesus and dancing the streets of gold with my grandpa! I’m so happy for her.🎉 So thankful for the 91 years she had on this earth and for the matriarch she was to our family. In my sadness I cling to memories of her as the secretary at our Christian school, of all the fun times at the cabin in Maggie Valley, and all the laughs we’d get over her ferocious competitiveness over games. I’m sad I didn’t get to say goodbye, but I feel like I have a new angel watching over me and my family. Love you, grandma! 😘🥰❤️💗

Ash the super speller! 🎉
7th in the school spelling bee (out of 200 kids!). Oddly Dylan also got 7th last year but Ash proudly noted that this still meant she did better bc she was two years younger! Lol!

Back to the rat race. Ick 👎
I miss vacation. Being in pjs all day. Sleeping in. Having my family all under one roof. The rat race bites.

We’ve lost our ballerina again...
...she’s somewhere over the Atlantic now returning to her other world. Not returning to the USA til mid August. 7 months is a long time. I realized how long this was when I told Logan he’d be a 1st grader when she came home. Ahhhh! I’m sad...but very grateful for the time we had these last 9 days. Best, most restful stay-cation ever. I love my family under one roof. Tonight there is a void again. :( Auf Wiedersehen, Hays!
