The Virkler Family Blog: Confessions
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2013/05/confessions.html
Thursday, May 09, 2013. Our family loves Carousel of Progress at Magic Kingdom. It's pretty silly and very dated, but we love it. I'm never going to have my wrapped presents pictured on Pinterest. I'm okay with that. I get it done in about 1/3 of the time of Josh (because his actually look nice! Sometimes I wish I were still 7. (yes, she's jumping over the cone! But then I couldn't be her mommy, and that would be a tragedy. I get as excited about going to Disney as my kids do. 101 in 1001 1.0.1. I Heart ...

The Virkler Family Blog: Emma's Birthday
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2012/11/emmas-birthday.html
Sunday, November 11, 2012. You may remember Emma Grace. If you don't, you can read about her story here. Today was her first birthday. It was by far the biggest first birthday I've ever witnessed. No cake, though. Just balloons, stories, and songs. And the most perfect weather we've had in the past 3 months. We went home with a candle they gave us, with directions that we should light it to remember her. Of course the kids decided that needed to be "right now," so we obliged. I was in 7th grade when she ...

The Virkler Family Blog: October 2013
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 11, 2013. There's something about me that's usually a good thing. Occasionally a very frustrating thing, especially when I'm around people who just want to vent to me. I find the good in it. I find something good about every person or situation. Seriously. Sometimes people just want to tell me what's wrong without my finding something good about it. I think it's probably why God taught me to be thankful. I realized something this morning. Or, rather, fit it all together. And you know what?

The Virkler Family Blog: Dear Emma Grace
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2011/11/dear-emma-grace.html
Thursday, November 17, 2011. Dear Emma Grace,. I met you one week ago. And my life was forever changed. I'm not exactly sure what our relationship is (first cousin once removed, plus a marriage in there). But I know you've found a place in my heart that will stay yours forever. I've known for months that you wouldn't have long to live. I watched your mommy learn more about all the things that weren't going right in your body, and I prayed for you so many times. I hope you don't mind that I'm going to kee...

The Virkler Family Blog: I can't help it.
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2013/09/i-cant-help-it.html
Thursday, September 05, 2013. I can't help it. Sometimes I just have to post here. I can't pretend otherwise. But I'm going to allow myself to be as inconsistent as I want and need to be. It may be more random topics, too. I'll write about whatever I've been processing, or find amusing, or whatever. I'm not writing it for anyone specific; just writing. So today: My Kids. Here's a collection of things my kids have said over the last week, plus pictures from a photo shoot we did last week! Want to see more...

The Virkler Family Blog: January 2014
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. American Idol.wait, what? Yesterday, I woke up and had a feeling it was going to be a very different day. After church, we came home for lunch and then headed to Hollywood Studios. I decided at breakfast that I was going to audition for the American Idol Experience, after Jasmine kept trying to get me to do it and I'd always answer with "aww, maybe. I'm not sure how much I want to be on stage." She wore me down! Sohere's MY American Idol Experience! And since they thought the ki...

The Virkler Family Blog: How Not To make a cross-country move
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2013/02/how-not-to-make-cross-country-move.html
Friday, February 15, 2013. How Not To make a cross-country move. 1 If you own three coffee pots that take two different kinds of filters, it does very little good if the filters are packed in separate boxes from the pots. It's a guarantee that you'll find filters for one and the other coffee pot. 2 It's a brilliant idea to use your favorite towels to put on the very top of boxes to make sure it's completely full so it won't get crushed. Just remember to check all the batteries before you go. Yesterday, I...

The Virkler Family Blog: What a Face
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2011/01/what-face.html
Monday, January 03, 2011. I Heart Faces is having a contest this week for "best faces of 2010." I knew immediately which picture I had to use, though I keep second-guessing myself by looking through the rest of my 2010 folders. So to keep myself from going crazy, I'm going to close Picasa and do the one I know is my favorite "face" picture of the year. Great job on the eyes! I love that picture! The orange shirt just makes it pop. Lisa @ Boondock Ramblings. What a little character! Its really version 2, ...

The Virkler Family Blog: Mud Run
http://joshandcharlene.blogspot.com/2013/05/mud-run.html
Sunday, May 12, 2013. Josh's sister Charity is in town for the week, which has been wonderful. The kids are loving getting time with their Auntie Chairty! One of the things we planned for her trip was a Mud Run, the FL ROC. Florida Run Obstacle Challenge). She doesn't like to get dirty, so you know just how much she loves her brother that she'd do it with him! Not only do I not like getting dirty, I don't like the thought of the obstacles! Mud to trudge/climb through. Josh is rather attached to his legs.
