Bad Day to Be a Hot Dog

Beth Ann Chiles/ Holiday/ 4 Comments/ 802

Yes — Independence Day is a bad day to be a hot dog as Aaron and Erin’s hats pronounce. I had to giggle at these hats that Erin’s sister got them to wear for the Fourth of July. . The day included a quick trip Continue reading →

Take a Beat!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Holiday/ 7 Comments/ 610

Whew! It’s been a week! Coming into Monday hot and ready for some down time with my sister and just pausing to reflect on how busy the last week was with meetings, obligations, gatherings, etc. You get the idea. My “retirement” is busier than ever Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Holiday/ 9 Comments/ 734

Another Mother’s Day is approaching. While we revere mothers, not everyone has positive experiences and it is a difficult day for many.  For those who have had difficult relationships with their own mothers, for those who wished to be mothers but couldn’t for various reasons. Continue reading →

Did You Say Aluminum Tree?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Holiday/ 13 Comments/ 749

Every year the Transylvania Heritage Museum, located in Brevard, North Carolina, hosts a very special exhibit and I FINALLY got to see it. I have tried for years but their hours of operation just never seemed to work with my schedule and I let each Continue reading →

Last year I shared several posts of a great nativity exhibit that was held in our town at St. Philip’s Episcopal Church. I was thrilled to see that they were going to hold it again this year and Chris and I marked off time on Continue reading →

Spooooooky!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Holiday/ 8 Comments/ 688

One of our grandson’s favorite words now is spooky. I think he got hooked on it when we were on our family trip to Maine and his Aunty Erin was running with him after dark past a cemetery. Now everything is spooky and what fun Continue reading →

The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
