Independence Day 2018

July 11, 2018 by Nikki No Comments

I know I’m a little late with this post but better late than never. Before the baby came along, we spent the Fourth of July watching baseball, eating hot dogs, and watching fireworks.  It’s what we’ve done ever since we moved to Durham, and I love it. Baseball is my favorite, hot dogs are delicious, and fireworks are fun! It’s a win-win.

Trip to Georgia

July 6, 2018 by Nikki No Comments

Hi, friends. I didn’t mean to disappear for a few weeks, but life got a little crazy. Nick’s grandfather passed away toward the end of June so we headed down to Georgia for the memorial service, to spend time with family, and to have our own little family vacation. We were gone for about five days, and the first few were spent with family and attending the memorial service. The service was a celebration of Nick’s grandfather’s life so we tried to keep it joyous instead of sad. Here are my guys in their matching outfits. Aren’t they adorable?!

Father’s Day 2018

June 18, 2018 by Nikki No Comments

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend, or if this is a holiday you’d rather not think about or celebrate, I hope it was just a pleasant weekend for you. Our weekend was filled with adventure!

On Friday, we went to a free outdoor concert at Durham Central Park with some friends, where the music was amazing and the food from the participating food trucks was decent. Sebastian loves running around with his friends and exploring his environment. He also thinks he’s a big kid so that means he can sit in the adult chairs, right?

The Purpose of Thunderstorms

June 14, 2018 by Nikki 3 Comments

It’s been raining a lot in North Carolina these last few weeks. Sometimes it’s a short summer storm but other times we’ve gotten it all: thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and even hail. Our local meteorologist made the comment one evening during his weather forecast that the purpose of a thunderstorm is to regulate the Earth’s temperature throughout the levels of the atmosphere so that the temps even out, achieving greater balance. This little nugget of information is really resonating with me lately.
