It seems as if Christmas cannot come soon enough for my kids. Last night Tim and I stayed up to finally wrap several gifts and when the children awoke in the morning and saw them under the tree they about lost it. And wanted it to be Christmas Eve TODAY. Now. This minute. It is…
Halloween 2013 (because it rhymes…)
On the first day of October B asked about Halloween and brought up the fact that he wanted to be a zombie. I grimaced to myself since I am not much for zombies or scary stuff. But the practical side of me did not protest too much since I figured that would just take some…
Fall-ish Fun
A few years ago I posted pictures of my kids at the “pumpkin patch” (a.k.a. the local Methodist church that uses their land to host games and treats and imported pumpkins) and the cuteness was overwhelming. (Warning: if you click on that link above, your uterus – if you have one – will twitch). I…

Old School Blogging, August
Well kids, we are changing things up here a bit this month and asking for pictures (and words, if you like) of your FRIDGE. What is on that bad boy? You got pictures? Lists? Kid art that is just TOO fabulous to toss? Christmas cards from two years ago? Birth announcements of kids that are…
Old School Blogging, July
I first completed this meme a WHILE ago… and at that time it was lists of eight things. But my partner in crime this month, the fabulous Alison from Writing, Wishing and I decided that five was enough. 
We are firm believers in simplifying our lives… So, here are a few lists of five for…
You Be the Judge (a mini vlog included)
Have you even been told you look like someone? Maybe someone’s sister or aunt or even a celebrity? Well last week I had two people from COMPLETELY different parts of my life tell me I look like a woman in a cereal commercial. So of course I had to check this out because apparently this…
