I know you have been breathlessly waiting… hehehe, but I found a new little treat for myself. I am not a red wine drinker normally, I always think red wine tastes like licking shag carpet (don’t ask), but I am totally willing to make an acceptation for this. My mom shared this little wine treasure with me back in December…
When I was in junior high school shopping at Goodwill was pretty cool. For a while there I thought I was too good for goodwill shopping and then I was just overwhelmed for it. Now that my boys are a little older and I am feeling like a few new clothes would be nice however living on a tight budget,…
I was asked this week to take pictures for my neighbor and her family. I always feel so privileged when I am asked to take pictures for someone’s family. I don’t really know what I am doing, I have been only snapping pictures of my family and so I am floored when someone asks me to take their pictures. Well,…
I have days where I have to stop what I am doing to remember just how blessed I am. I have three wonderful little boys that day by day are growing into wonderful men. I have to pinch myself at times to remind myself that I am a mom, let alone a mom of three boys. I feel very fortunate…

I have been going through a love hate relationship with the winter this year. For some reason I have been feeling like I am soooo done with the snow. Granted living in Colorado is not the place to be then… snow can fall in late May and as early as September. The one nice thing about spring snow… I am…
Last weekend at church was our “Go” weekend, simply meaning it was our missions emphasis weekend where one could sign up to help out with short term missions opportunities through our church. A strange sense of tugging began to creep into my heart. For the last ten years I have not once thought about going on or being a part…
I don’t know about you but having people in my home has always felt a little stressful. I am always worried that people are looking at my house thinking, “Man, she ought to do…” or “Why isn’t that done better.” I know that sounds silly but it is the simple truth. Over the last few months I have decided to…
Back in October I found a Groupon for a canvas and cocktail place. I invited my Facebook friends to purchase along with me so we could have a girls’ night out. Two friends bought it but with the time running out I was only able to coordinate with one friend for a girls’ night out. We grabbed some dinner and…
