Hello! Been busy enjoying the holiday season. I have been having a lot of fun decorating the home for Christmas, which I’ll share later, and getting ready for when the boys have winter break. In November we got our family pictures done and I’m having the hardest time deciding on which ones to send out, […]

Quick post to say “hi”! I’ve been on a bit of a blog break, working on projects, trying my best to get them completed before moving on to something new (I’m not the only one with this problem, right? haha). We recently had the upstairs painted, which means all the rooms have paint on the […]

My brother-in-law and sister-in-law have a humming bird friend who loves their backyard. He’s fun to watch as he flies around, perching on the trees and darting to the bushes. Can’t blame him, it is a nice quiet place to hang out!

Did you know that Pioneer Woman has occasional photography challenges you can participate in? This weekend she issued a macro challenge and I’ve been participating each day. It’s been a lot of fun to find different things around the house to photograph and add to the flickr group. I’m also happy to have my camera […]

*I wanted to share this even though it’s too late for the contest, we were having blog issues and couldn’t post but we’re keeping our fingers crossed that we’re all fixed!* This week the challenge at iheartfaces is family. We were all gathered on our bed, reading together (okay, I was pretending to sleep and […]

Last month we had an absolute blast finally getting professional pictures of our family! MONTHS in advance I booked EPlove to do the session because I have anxiety issues and didn’t want to miss out on getting them done this year! LOL! I just love their style and have heard nothing but good things from […]

Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving! Filled with family, food and joy.

This year I did a lot of sewing for the boys’ costumes. And thanks to my procrastination they got to change who they wanted to be at the last minute. 😆 Meet Ash Ketchum: This costume was really fun to put together and I was thankful that Perrin picked somebody who only required a jacket […]

Yesterday, during a homework recess, the boys we out back and blew bubbles. It became more entertaining once Sammy joined in and I grabbed my camera to catch the fun. When I was going thru the pictures today they made me laaaaaaaugh! I love his determination to jump and pop the bubble. He’s actually quite […]

Easily the best toy we’ve bought, and a big favorite with Sam, is his wubba! If you have a dog, you’ve probably seen these everywhere! They are easily found in pet supply stores as well as online and in retail chains. I love them! Easy to play tug of war with and to toss for […]
