It was a wonderful fun filled weekend filled with a lot of Amara! She didn’t spend the night with us and we didn’t get to have movie night but we sure had a lot of fun. Since Jenna, Amara’s Mommy, is still recovering from her foot surgery I got to take Amara to a roller [...]

My whole reason for creating AmaraLand was to have a place to share all of the wonderful things that Amara does with my family and friends. This is NOT Grandma Kc’s blog. This is Amara’s blog — and it is all about her! Her new thing to say is “How are things on my blog [...]

We really do have a lot of rituals that we go through with Amara. I’ve told you about when I leave her house and head home to Grampy, she always has to send him home hugskisspoketicklespiderbites. And when her parents drop her off at our house, well we have a ritual for that, too. Since [...]

This is another episode of “Previously on Amara”. This one is from February of 2008, she was almost 4 years old! I had to share this memory. Amara really has a difficult time not laughing… It all started when Grampy asked Amara if she had ever seen him imitate a balloon? I’d never seen him [...]
