Family Camp
So five years ago The Lovely Rhonda and I decided to drag the children to our church’s camp for a few days of Family Camp. We took only the older two girls as the youngest was barely two years old and we thought summer camp + diapers = misery. We were kind of correct in…

Family Camp Week
So every year for the past four years, and conceivably for all future years, we have attended Family Camp at our church’s camp out in the sticks. I say for all future years because there are people attending this camp who have been doing so nearly all their lives, and they are older than I…

The Weddin’, Part V: The Reception
So I got married on Saturday, January 5th. After we promised to love each other until the end of time, it only made sense to then strap on the feedbag at a fantastic spread provided by the best friends two lesbians could ever have, the toothsome Kirsten and her inexplicable husband, The Davey.

We’ve been home for seven hours and the washing machine has been in use the entire time save for…

Pageantry
So, we’ve been attending a different church lately. It’s the same type of church, just smaller and closer to our home. I have mixed feelings about possibly leaving the church I’ve attended since Delia was a month old. But that’s far too serious a topic for this blog! At any rate, the long-awaited Christmas Pageant…

Camp Nurse
Well, that was fun. The most complicated nursing task I performed was to provide a nail clipper to a family in need. One of their offspring had bent a fingernail backwards, not to the point of bleeding or anything, but it smarted. Despite my lengthy training and expertise, I allowed one of the parents to…
