Pretty nails… what could be better? Really!?! I am not one for having pretty manicured finger nails. I am super hard on my nails and I am not a “girlie girl”, with that being said, I have found a product that I am loving! I can probably count on my two hands the amount of times that I have worn…
With the Christmas season upon us I have been feeling like I am on a consumer overload frustration. Stores are packed, parking lots are insane, no one is smiling and there is this sense that since I have not bought everything that I am failing. Well, I am saying enough! Hubby and I have been talking about how we are…
Every week for Awana there is a special event, whether is be jammie night, mustache night or crazy hair night. Well, tonight was crazy hair night and usually brothers are not wanting to participate but tonight they wanted to. Middle brother actually had ideas of how his hair was going to be when he got home from school and proceeded…
This morning hubby had to work which meant that the boys and I headed to the twice a month Goodwill sale. Around ten I got a call from hubby letting me know that his day was getting cut short and he wanted to spend the afternoon with the family. Hubby got home showered and then we headed to one of…
I am really proud of big and middle brother! This year both boys made it to our Awana Red Carpet. Each brother had to complete at least 15 sections in their Awana book and both brothers did it! In years past there used to be a pizza party that was help for the event, this year it was changed to…
Not that it is any surprise but this whole gig of being a mom of boys is a strange journey. Not one that I would trade for the world but there are days that I have to pinch myself to remind myself, I am one girl in a house of silly, stinky and goofy boys. However, one of the benefits…
You know those days where you just get going? Days where you wake up, get dressed and start your day with no thought beyond the tasks that must get done… I have been in a funk lately and I have been so caught up in life that I have forgotten to stop and remember the little pleasures of life. Today…
A few weeks ago my neighbor said that her dad had taken down a deer for her and she was having the meat processed and had asked me if I would want to try some. I was game, trying a new meat that could be obtained in a very inexpensive way… Sunday my neighbor brought over two pounds of ground…
Without fail my little men get sick! What is up with that? Between elderberry syrup, fresh air and a clean house I guess I lean on those hoping to keep my little men healthy. Yeah, those might help but that means that I never go grocery shopping, we never go to church or never go to school. Thus begins the…
One of the great benefits of having purchased a fake tree a few years ago is the fact that our tree can go up whenever I decide I want to get everything out. And my precedent is that Thanksgiving has to be completely put away before Christmas can come out, as well as the house needs to be totally cleaned! …
