Now that September is over, I’m finally getting around to sharing about our month of August. 1. A Solo Gig. Super Rockstar was invited to play for a friend’s surprise birthday/retirement party. She was genuinely surprised and pleased, and it was a really fun event. 2. Last of the summer fun. A huge water balloon…
Movies: 1. Spider-Man: Brand New Day. We all were so excited to see this movie in the theater and it did not disappoint. I have loved Tom Holland as Spiderman and he does a fantastic job in this one. The story line picks up a few years after the last one (Spider-Man: No Way Home)–where…
Here in Colorado, we are having the summeriest summer weather we have ever had. I didn’t know that it could get (and stay) so hot here. But the good news is that we got to enjoy a lot of fun getaways. 1. Fourth of July in Kansas. I’ve lost count of how many years this…

This is a really good marinade for shish kabobs. It can be used for chicken, beef, shrimp or all of them together. 1. The ingredients for the marinade. 2. Whisk all together. Place cut up meat of your choice in zip locks and add about half the marinade. Shake it up and refrigerate for 2…
May is always one of my favorite months of the year–school ends and summer break begins, Mother’s Day is always in May, and most importantly so is my birthday. Here’s what all we did and enjoyed. 1.Last Choir Concert. Grayson performed in his last choir concert of the school year and did a great job….
