Money-Saving Tip {tee hee}

August 14, 2008 by Elaine

I don’t think I have mentioned it THAT much on here, but I do love Target. I guest posted at Steph’s place earlier in the week about how much The B Man likes it as well. And yes, we did go there today because I “needed” a few things and the $5 coupon was burning…

Me & My Guy

August 11, 2008 by Elaine

Hannah tagged me for the meme about my man. What is his name? Tim Who eats more? He does. Who said, “I love you” first? I don’t really remember, but I think it was me or it was at the same time sort of. Obviously I don’t really recall. I remember it was pretty early…

Beachy Keen

August 8, 2008 by Elaine

So yes, the little vacation was wonderful, except perhaps for the late dinner at the Big Fisherman on Saturday night with FIVE kids… oh the memories! But besides that and the fact that I could have stayed a day or two longer, it was a great getaway. Little G was OBSESSED with the birds and…

Fish Tales

August 5, 2008 by Elaine

My Dad and Tim went fishing extremely early Friday morning while we were at the ocean. Since I stayed up every night until 1 am talking to my bro and my SIL, I was only asleep for a few hours when they got up to leave. God bless the boys for “sleeping in” a little…
