Water is essential to life. If we turn on our tap and no water comes out, I can assure you that at our house, we go into emergency mode.  Not long after we purchased our house nine years ago, our water did stop running.  We had to call a company that specializes in wells to … Continue reading The Deep Wells →

Family is like music, some high notes, some low notes, but always a beautiful song.

Lowcountry summers are crazy humid and crazy hot.  We love having a pool for our kids to play in.  Honestly, they might not get to play outside very much without one.  Our old round intex pool had made it through six summers.  It was very evident that it wouldn't make it to the end of … Continue reading Summer Projects – Sinking Our Intex Pool →

On a recent trip back home to the southwestern part of Virginia, some of our Tribe took a hike with their Poppaw Ferguson to The Channels Natural Area Preserve.
