You Capture – Love Around My Home

January 21, 2010 by Elaine

Love is all around as they say. Obviously we know I love my husband and children and all of my family for that matter. But there are certain things that make a house a “home.” Things that just “speak” to us and make our hearts soar. Here are a few of mine… I bought this…

A Decade

November 6, 2009 by Elaine

Today, Friday November 6th 2009 marks mine and Tim’s 10th wedding anniversary. An entire decade of wedded bliss. Did I just say bliss? Okay, I know what y’all are thinking, certainly it hasn’t ALL been that fantastic. And of course you are right. Marriage is wonderful but it’s hard and challenging and even though I…

My Life, It is Blessed

October 20, 2009 by Elaine

I think I failed to mention that when I was sick last week Tim was out of town. He had a 3 day/2 night business trip to another town in Louisiana and although I wished he’d been here, we were well taken care of by my MIL (thank God for her!!) and in retrospect I’m…

PSF – Beautiful Girl

October 16, 2009 by Elaine

WW – Mothers & Daughters

October 14, 2009 by Elaine

My mom got pretty attached to Baby K when she was here last week. As she was leaving she urged me to send her lots of pictures (she doesn’t look at the blog that often) and we both fought back tears. I was so very happy to share my daughter with her, a time I…

The First Few Days…

October 5, 2009 by Elaine

(click to enlarge – welcome home sign made by The B Man – isn’t that the sweetest thing??) Well, we are home and things are going pretty well. Baby K is not all that into breastfeeding, unfortunately and today or tomorrow I plan to see a lactation consultant as well as try some things that…

It’s My Love’s Birthday

July 16, 2009 by Elaine

Thirty-five years ago today a special baby entered the world. Twenty-one years later (plus some months) we met. Four years later we were married and now, almost ten years later, we’ve built a life together that I thank God for everyday. He’s a pretty simple, hard working man and all he asked for for his…

Happy Father’s Day!

June 21, 2009 by Elaine

I used to think about what “kind” of father Tim would be before we had children. I used to wonder how he would react to certain situations or how well he would bond with them. Yes, us women just do things like that. Of course there was never any reason for concern because he’s a…

Friends Are Friends Forever…

June 18, 2009 by Elaine

… even if you move away, right? Say “right.” Right now, say “right.” K, thanks. Sorry for being so forceful but I need your help here. In the last week I’ve spent some quality time with my girlfriends that I’ve had since college, early marriage and since having children. These woman mean so VERY MUCH…

Tuesday’s Tribute – Thursday Evenings

May 12, 2009 by Elaine

Yes, Thursday nights have Grey’s and they hold the promise of Friday just around the corner. But lately, they also mean the return of my husband from his bi-weekly business trips. So today, I pay tribute to the same night of the week that I hear the garage door go up, as I sit waiting…
