My mom has her original recipe book with my late grandma, mom, and my late Uncle Butch’s handwritten recipes. Today, being the day before Thanksgiving, we prepared grandma’s dressing. So, all 3 generations …

Love this kid
November 6, 2013 Multiplication may make us cry but Twinkle Toes can melt my heart. When I put her to bed this is what I found… I love this kid. She is my heart unconditionally.

Oh my multiplication…
November 5, 2013 The weekend came and went. Twinkle Toes’ dance company preformed at our local arts festival. They did a wonderful job! So needless to say, I wasn’t too motivated to do much of anything else. I had a great walk with my mom Sunday. Almost 4.5 miles at a brisk pace. But I managed to pull my rear …

November 1, 2013 Well, I hope you all had a great Halloween! We did. Twinkle Toes was in full character as Rapunzel. However, auto correct turned Rapunzel into rap uncle! I thought it was hilarious! Back to Rapunzel… She had a great time and got way too much candy! 🙂 We were hanging out with some great friends! So on …

Sounds easy but it can take a good bit of time. The golf course is Rock Barn Golf and Spa. It is beautiful. Lots of hills. This was an awesome display in …

Woah, it’s early
October 29, 2013 Well, the day started off earlier than it does when I run. I failed to mention that I was fortunate enough to move into an administrative position almost 4 years ago. This allowed me to be home more with Twinkle Toes. The downside was that I had to leave the girls that I had recruited mid season. …

October 28, 2013 Hi, my name is Robin and I love to run. I may not be fast, I may not be able to run long distances, but I’m trying! The 2013 Princess Half weekend was the start to my running adventure. While it was only the 5k, it was awesome and I was hooked. The difficulty that I have …
