    Hayleigh's 3!...

    Marc will be 5 on the 26th! Can't believe he'll start Kindergarten in August. He is missing a tooth, but only because he was rough housing and knocked it out on the couch.

    What activities do your kids do?...

    My twins (Billy and Kaitlyn) are 12 years old, in 7th grade. Billy is into baseball, always has been. He plays pitcher and he's freaking awesome at it. (He shattered our window with a wiffle ball last year). As for school activities (other than baseball) he has been talking about joining the...

    Growing Up and Going to College...

    Amber and I adopted Jon in January 2009. The whole story is here: Jon. If you don't want to read that, the short version is, he was one of Cassie's friends and he came to me one day asking if I could get him out of his father's house. Once we really knew everything about the situation and...

    Growing Up and Going to College...

    Yeah, its basically exactly like architecture except he builds/designs/fixes ships and submarines and stuff like that. We love Naval Academy...The Navy pays his tuition and THEY pay HIM to go there (because he's in the Navy, it is his job after all). It's very little, but so worth it Win-win...

    Growing Up and Going to College...

    haha, I guess so. Just wish I knew what it was. It is really empty. Still have Billy and Kaitlyn, and we have Marc and Hayleigh over almost every Saturday. But only having two kids around is A LOT different. Even more different than I thought it would be. :(

    Growing Up and Going to College...

    Yeah, and that's not including tuition ($29,900/year)! Luckily Dylan got a full baseball/academic scholarship so we aren't paying tuition.

    Growing Up and Going to College...

    A lot of kids here are choosing to stay home at home just because room and board are so expensive (Dylan's last year room and board along with the meal plan was $9,400) It's well worth it if you can afford it but a lot of parents are saying "you pay for it or you stay here" understandably...
