Last weekend we spent a WONDERFUL weekend with our “Pondered in My Heart” friends in PA. Kimberlee did a great job of chronicling our adventures (in film-making, eating, singing around the piano, and more eating…). I’ll just add a few pictures…
Kateri joins in on the musical fun…

Well I am posting this from beautiful Vermont. The children and I are visiting my parents at their home on Lake Dunmore. It was a beautiful day today and we had a great day down at the ”beach”. Some friends mentioned that they were going to go to the “jumping off rock” and invited us to [...]
Last Thursday and Friday, we were privileged to spend two wonderful days in Pennsylvania with two blogger mom families. We (the children and I) headed out to Lancaster at 4:30 a.m. Only those who live on Long Island understand the need to beat the morning rush hour through NYC. :) At 7 [...]
Last month, the children and I took a roadtrip to visit Julie of Trinity Acres and her family in Wisconsin. We visited last year about this time of year. We had such a wonderful visit that we decided to go back again this year. Julie has a great post about our visit – complete [...]
My daughter, Hope, and I returned last night from a whirl-wind trip to beautiful Lancaster, Pennsylvania and the F-C Learning Conference. We headed out Friday morning and arrived at our hotel about three hours before the Family Picnic at a local park. After taking a quick tour of the area, we arrived about 10 minutes [...]
We took a wonderful trip with some friends to the Bronx Zoo last month. My husband is an avid amateur photographer and boy, does he take some terrific pictures. His zoo pictures over the last few years have been just stunning and this year’s do not disappoint. You can view a [...]
Yesterday morning we were all set to leave from our Vermont paradise at Lake Dunmore. We had kissed my parents good-bye, packed ALL OUR STUFF into my husband’s Expedition, complete with two carriers (one on top and one on the hitch), and stuffed two adults, four children, and five dogs into their assigned places. And wouldn’t [...]
This morning we had the privilege of worshiping at St. Mary’s in Middlebury, VT. And what makes participating in the mass at a parish other than our own so special? It’s the continuity. I love that going to one Novus Ordum mass is much like going to another. And while we usually attend the Extraordinary [...]
During our recent car trip to Vermont, we listened to Five Children and It by Edith Nesbit. My children enjoyed the ill-fated, although humorous wishes of the children in the story. At one point, as the car ride seemed to be dragging, Hope (15) declared that if she had a sand fairy that granted wishes, she’d be wishing that we (including [...]

St. Gertrude’s Prayer Eternal Father, I offer thee the most precious blood of thy divine son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
