Okay, maybe not the top of the world but pretty darn close! Today we drive up to Mt Evans and then walked to the top peak for a few photos. I was hoping that having had my sister and her hubby at the mile high city for a few days and making sure they were faithfully drinking their water that…
With hubby unofficially on vacation as of the third and my sister and her husband in town we decided to do a few touristy things. This morning we went to the Paris Street Market and walked around admiring the antiques, then we went to a park and played for a little, fed some ducks and then went and tried to…
This morning my little sister and her husband drove in from San Diego and all we have planned is a little cooking, a little eating, a few drinks and lots of fire works. My little sister had called me about two weeks ago to see what plans hubby and I had for the fourth, I explained our boring plans of…
The best mommy medicine that I know of is a girl’s night. Tonight I am having a group of friends from MOPS over to the house for desserts. I am excited to spend some time sitting around the table with friends sharing sweet treats and good laughs.
I have always thought of myself as a pretty independent person. I like to do things by myself and I am overall capable. Well, after the boys left on Friday I thought I would blow through my list of projects around the house that I have been wanting to get done. I mean why not, with only one kiddo home…

Well, mighty fine – thanks for asking! This year with a little extra work last fall I was able to expand my gardening space. We have these three awkward beds that house a ton of rocks and well let’s be honest, weeds too. Last fall I spent time cleaning out just one of the beds and getting all the blasted…
I have had my suspicions about one of our chickens being a rooster but until it crows or lays I will keep it. The one thing about getting day old is you never really know whether they are male or female. Yes, they sex them but even then there are no guarantees and that is a little frustrating to me.…
I have been on the search for a while to a shadow box at Goodwill, why just Goodwill – well duh; I don’t want to spend all my money for a shadow box. This weekend I found this little treasure, it was dirty and ugly but I saw potential and for $4, I was able to buy it. For middle…
For big and middle brother’s birthdays my parents bought us a day to a local amusement park. Heritage Square is located just down the street from where we live and I have never taken the boys. Today I took the boys with one of my friends, her daughter and husband. The boys had swim lessons this morning and then we…
