My *Asterisk* Life

  • Springtime Nature Walks

    The past few weeks have been extra busy. We celebrated my parents anniversary, my birthday, Mother’s Day, and my youngest’s first Holy Communion all while finishing up the end of the semester writing and grading. When there are so many celebrations at once, I find it hard to really be engrossed in them. I’m just…

  • Here’s to 50 Years!

    Here’s to 50 Years!

    Congratulations to my parents on their “Golden” anniversary.

  • Stay Hopeful

    Stay Hopeful

    It’s been hard to stay positive, but we have to keep trying.

  • Butterfly Release Day

    Butterfly Release Day

    We have a fairy tree in our yard. Actually we have 2 fairy trees, but one is the main tree and the other is like the fairies extra apartments. The fairies were actually in our backyard. For a long time. We had a pretty flowering tree in the back corner of your yard. The kids…

  • Another Year, Same Fears

    Tomorrow is another first day of school for us. Our school sent out a video, “how not to drop off the kids.” It was cute. And I get it. Drop off needs to be fast and efficient. Pull up, move along, be quick. That’s why I always walk the kids in rather than drive to…

  • Ariel is Deserves a Defense

    Ariel is Deserves a Defense

    I am often told that Ariel is the worst princess because she supposedly gave up so much for a guy she didn’t even know. I don’t think she deserves that hate, and I think she is way more awesome than we give her credit for.

  • DIY Dress Up Wardrobe

    I haven’t blogged in way too long, so I decided to catch up with some of my favorite projects. The first being a wardrobe for all their dress up clothes. My kids love playing dress up. Truthfully, love dressing the up too. Dress up clothes are so much better now than they were when I…

  • Back to School Blues

    I have a cloth hammock that envelopes your entire body and can hide you from the outside world. Usually the second I even think of going on it the kids crawl in on top of me (they don’t ever do that to Matt, btw). I told them they couldn’t bother me because they’re all wet…

  • Daisy Singing in the Rain

    Daisy Singing in the Rain

    I think most of us are in agreement that this summer was pretty crappy weather wise. It was either a thousand degrees or raining. Most of us are glad it’s finally fall and some clear, crisp weather should be on the way. While she hasn’t specifically told me, I don’t think my Daisy is one…

  • Welcome Baby

    It’s been 2 months since we met our new little baby. 39 weeks of being Team Green and wondering who would be joining our family. I painted my nails pastel pink and blue, made a gender neutral reveal shirt, and pulled out all the neutral baby clothes I had. Of course, the day of my…
