We love our home and strive for a safe, loving environment where friends and family are always welcome and a peaceful feeling resides. More often than not, it's a mess with toys and books littering the living room floor. The noise level is always a dull roar and little feet race up and down the hall.
We prefer to be home (we're all home bodies for the most part) talking and laughing while James is in the kitchen cooking. A dance party usually ensues and it's always a toss up as to who the better dancer is-James or Samuel. But we can all shake our booties and do it regularly.
We love traditions and have the typical holiday traditions but we also have our own family traditions. We do a friday night date night for the whole family. We're either at our local favorite pizza place or the high school football game. Another tradition we enjoy is Sunday waffles after church. We do a random ice cream run once a week aas well as a game night or movie night once a week.
One of our favorite traditions occurs every night. The kids take showers and then we tuck them in bed, read a story of their choosing and sing songs. There is nothing like kissing their soft, sweet-smelling skin and wishing them sweet dreams.
Life is good.
