Sometimes I feel like I’m cheating on Texas with Louisiana. Like when I go back to my home state and remember why I love it so. And then as I return to the place I call home for now, and the fast-moving car carries me back over the state line, it’s like some sort of sordid…
Pink – You Capture
Traveling with three kids is exhausting, in a good way of course. So… just some pics this time…
I leave you with this…
I know. I kinda keeled over from the cute too. Seriously. I put the bands in her hair and the boys saw her with her “pig tails” and I ran to get the camera before she had a chance to pull them out, and me and the boys were all, “OMG, she’s SO cute with…
Spring-alicious!
I love spring so much that I wish I could bottle it up and take it with me everywhere. And since it doesn’t last that long here in our part of the country I mean that even more than you might think. I promise you summer (or at least the heat of it) is JUST…
They were supposed to be yellow…
I trudged into the building, my tired body struggling, my eyes still burning and bloodshot from hours of crying. My boss wanted to know what was wrong so I told him. As was his way, he shrugged it off and told me there were other fish in the sea or some crap like that. But…
Ruby Leon Jewelry – A Giveaway!
I have another wonderful giveaway for you all and this one is extra special since it’s a friend of mine from Texas. Ruby and I used to be in the local Moms Club chapter together (unfortunately we both moved!) and she is one of THE nicest and loveliest people I know. Her passion is making gorgeous and…
Southern Livin’ (and kind of a weekend recap)
I was driving down a familiar road in town the other day and thinking how after almost two years here, there are still days that I’m surprised at the fact that we live in southern Louisiana. But as I looked up to the sky and saw the broad oak branches stretching over me I thought…
The Phone Call
This post is my attempt at fiction, written for the following prompt from The Red Dress Club…“In the middle of the night, you (“you” being the character in my story) get an urgent call from a friend you haven’t talked to in years. Something terrible has happened. What is it and why is he/she calling…
Baby Pangs
Before the day I found out I was pregnant with K I thought a lot about having another baby. And I mean A LOT. I’ve always pictured myself as a mother of three. I’m not sure why, I just have. But truthfully, about the time that she came to be, I was resigned to being…
Hey kids, come over here so I can take your picture!!
I’m trying to follow in the footsteps of the lovely Steph and take pics of my kids on the third of every month (she does the fourth since she has four kids, so that’s why I usually do the third, get it?). I don’t always post them here but I take them. Except for…
