A Hobbit's Tale

One may ask what in the world the name of this blog means. Let me explain. My dad has called me "Sherwi" (the "r" is sort of silent, hard to explain how to pronounce it)my whole life. I'm not sure where it comes from. Maybe it was the way I said my own name when I was a wee tot. Nonetheless, it has stuck with me my whole life. When Lord of the Rings became popular, my brothers started calling me Sherwi Baggins due to my tall stature. I'm honored to have it as a nickname. Hobbits rock!

Homemade Carmel Apples

There are about one hundred million perks to no longer working and being home with the Porter boy full time. One of the best perks is being able to spend more time with Olivia and watching our kids play and laugh together. On Tuesday, Porter and I headed over to their house to make carmel apples. Raegan joined us too, and we had the best time talking and getting caught up on each others lives. Sadie and Porter chased each other around and laughed and giggled and colored and made a mess with every toy in the whole house. It was the best of times!
