Purchase...

Ben has had his eye on this ridiculously expensive xbox controller for a while. He recently told us all the reasons he wanted it and educated us with the research he did. He made the purchase and it arrived today. He is pretty darn happy!

24!

Today is our 24th wedding anniversary! It was a typical busy Monday and I even had to work late, but at the end of the day, we took a moment to be thankful for these last 24 years. Even on a crazy busy Monday, it is amazing to end the day with my guy and think about how blessed we are to have each other and this wonderful family of ours!

Science Projects...

Both boys had some projects to do for their Applied Physics and chemistry class. We powered through and got them both done this weekend! They are studying different waves in class and how they work. Ben chose to research telescopes and Conner opted for rogue waves.
