Dentists, Doctors, and Dinosaurs – Oh My! And that Target thing: RTT Rebel

We are in the final three weeks of the kids’ summer break – so naturally we’re cramming as much fun as we possibly can in that three weeks. You know, like dentist and doctor appointments.

Christmas Survival, Forgotten Christmas Calls and the Adventures of TinTin

Did you all survive Christmas or Hanukkah?  We had a successful trip to Iowa, only hit snow in Virginia – and by hit, I mean it was flurry-ing like crazy, but not sticking on the ground, so I didn’t have to grip the steering wheel as tight as I would have.  It was interesting taking…
