Jon and Holly: April 2009
http://jonandholly.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 22, 2009. We try to be green. We have all energy efficient lightbulbs in our home. We recyle everything. We try not to leave the lights on and try not to leave the water running. We only wash a full load of dishes in the dishwasher. We have all energy efficient appliances including washer and dryer. I try to use towels instead of paper towels when possible. But we can always do more. Here's what I bought:. Now, I realize it's just a silly pack of granola bars. Posted by The Hanes Fam.

Jon and Holly: October 2008
http://jonandholly.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 25, 2008. I had planned the vacation specifically so it would be on my birthday. About 5 months ago I realized that 30 was going to be tougher than I thought, so I figured any sort of distraction and/or added celebration would make it easier to swallow. I think it was one of my better decisions. Jon woke up early and went to run some "errands" which included buying me Einstein's for breakfast and bringing home 30 roses. So sweet and such a nice thought. I loved them. Mistake #3 isn't ac...

Jon and Holly: August 2008

Saturday, August 30, 2008. Welcome to Saturday Project #5. I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of our Saturday Project Team:. We then tried to make a dent in the cabinet staining process. The upper cabinets are done on one side, so we're working our way through the lower ones. I was on drawer duty and Jon did the actual cabinets. It went well but we were only able to get one coat on today. (The USC game and a very fussy teething Harper did a good job of pulling us away! Posted by The Hanes Fam.

Saturday, August 01, 2009. Budget Update: 7 months in - How we're doing. In a word: GREAT! We've managed to pay off somewhere in the neighborhood of $14,000 since January 1st and we are in absolute awe of that fact. We give all praise and thanksgiving to God for giving us the inspiration and promise that He would take care of it if we would make the commitment to get out of debt. I saved 87% by using coupons and store discounts. Not too shabby! I hope the next big update has more good news! By the way, i...

The Lynns in Real Life: September 2013
http://gwenandkendall.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 20, 2013. This guy. He is such a nut! I know everyone thinks their child is funny. But to hear someone. Say that your child is funny? That is always fun to hear. I had G's very 1st Parent-Teacher Conference last night. It's Kindergarten, and we are like 4 weeks into the year, so how bad could it be, right? Here were her examples (because goodness knows this is not stuff I want to forget in the coming years! Teacher puts cash and coins on the table, and asks Garrett "what is this? Garret...

Thursday, April 24, 2014. Gina’s 4th Birthday Interview. Sweet Gina Barrina… You turned 4 years old yesterday! And here is a collage of your cute little self on each of your birthdays. Please don’t ever get too cool to let me keep doing these…. How old are you? But since I waited until. Birthday to do this interview, I guess I should ask you how old were you a few days ago? 3 and A HALF. . And how old are you. FOUR (while holding up your left hand with four fingers and shoving it right in my face).

Friday, June 28, 2013. Confessional Friday: {Link-Up} Pet Peeves. Here's my 1st confession. I have been reading these Confessional Fridays. For quite some time, but am just now going to link-up! Not for any reason other than I just love me some pet-peeves because they tell you just how weird each and every one of us can be! I think as parents, we tend to (subconsciously) pass our weirdness, pet peeves, or silly things that make us crazy (and sometimes, if we're lucky, maybe even good things! I’m no...

The Lynns in Real Life: March 2013
http://gwenandkendall.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 31, 2013. Since our Saturday was so busy, Garrett fell asleep on the couch last night, and Gina slept with us. Neither one of them heard that wrasckly Easter Bunny (thank goodness they didn’t associate that with. What’s a holiday without our front porch pics? Mom made brisket, potato salad, and cole slaw for lunch. My contribution was bags of chips, store-bought dip, and a box of frosted sugar cookies! Still, it was a GREAT lunch! Next up… The egg hunt! Here are our hunters! See what I mean?

Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Garrett’s Kindergarten Graduation. It was so nice to get up, take the kids to their schools, and be able to come back to the house to get ready! I was glad that Gina had preschool, so I could just enjoy watching Garrett’s program. Daddy had to be in Louisiana this week for some job training. And then they played Pomp and Circumstance. WHAT IS IT ABOUT THAT SONG? Such a sweet guy! I took video of the whole ceremony, and like I said, I was in pretty much the back row, so I don̵...
