Me & My Boys: November 2014
http://themartfamily.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Wednesday, November 19, 2014. This blog was originally created to keep my family in the loop on Brady. It's become my soapbox! Since I am completely uninspired on my own little challenge and frankly sometimes really do not like "putting myself out there", I am redirecting this blog to be about Brady. This smile. I hope he forever finds joy in life! He loves bowling and begged for weeks to go! Pre-bowling snack - Rice Krispie bars (only he decided he just wanted the M&M's).

Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Sunday, June 28, 2015. We had a really enjoyable weekend! Now we are off to golf although it's a little tricky since kids have to be six to be on the course and Brady is only four. :). Last day of swim lessons. He made huge improvements over the course of the week! Swimming is his thing! Hanging out Friday night and relaxing after a good workout at the gym! Espenhover Grandma (as Brady calls her) came on Saturday afternoon. It was wonderful :). Links to this post. He had...

Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. And I can’t forget this! Links to this post. Sunday, August 23, 2015. 1, His leash x 2. Yes, we are on our second leash. 2 His dog bed that we bought for our room. Stuffing ripped out, zipper torn off. I haven't thrown it away yet though because honestly it keeps him busy when he's upstairs. 3 He picks at and chews our kitchen and front entryway rugs. Not so much anymore, but at first it was constant. 4 The knobs on our kitchen drawers. 10 As pr...

Me & My Boys: April 2015
http://themartfamily.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Being Alive in a Beautiful World. Thursday, April 30, 2015. On Wednesday, Brady’s school had class at the Waukee Public Library. It was great - he even rode his bike "to school"! Links to this post. Wednesday, April 15, 2015. Do you think we need a shed? I can organize all I want. And yet it still looks like this. I mean why do we have four sets of golf clubs when there are only three of us living here? Links to this post. Tuesday, April 7, 2015. Waukee's Easter egg hunt. It was great! Links to this post.

My Messy Honesty: July 2015

Tuesday, July 28, 2015. The Seven Deadly Sins - #4 Envy. The feeling of wanting to have what someone else has. Someone or something that causes envy. Envy now that's a good deadly sin. How many of us have looked at someone and thought - wow. they have everything I want. How many time have us woman been in line at a grocery store, looked at the cover of a magazine and regardless of who is on it thought, wow, I wish I could be them. They are tall, skinny, pretty, rich. I've looked at friends and envied them.

Wednesday, April 10, 2013. It seems like all I have done lately is post pictures of my baby girl. Who, by the way, is no baby anymore. :(. Sigh*. So I figured it was time for a speedy catch up! I posted some pictures from Instagram of our Easter weekend! That was a good weekend! Some family time, a couple egg hunts and some relaxation! Avery is still doing gymnastics and loving it! I feel like I have to be stern in order to get her there but once we are on the way she has a great time! Another Weekend Go...

CARPe Diem: February 2013
http://nrcarpediem.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 27, 2013. Yesterday was my bday! 33 big ones. At least Rusty is 1 yr. older so I can always make fun of him for being older. The day started out with birthday wishes from my little girl. She asked me what kind of a cake I was going to have and if it was going to be a Dora cake like hers. Cute! The past few weeks have been rough. Strep-flu or virus(? Well the verdict at the doctor was a temp of 101 and strep throat again. So glad we went and got Avery a new antibiotic! Since she had a ...

Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Best Jobs. Ever. I have the best jobs ever. I work part time at a salon and spa as a receptionist. I get to greet people when they come in, answer phones, schedule appointments and clean. And I Love. It. I work with GREAT women. Everyone there is a friend. The owner and manager have been amazing. They were truly SAINTS when I needed them most during a hard time. I don't think they know/understand how much that stuck in my mind. I get to see all kinds of dogs - all day long!
