Did We Make The Right Decision?

It is hard to believe we have been in our new location for about 4 months now.  Time has flown and we have savored every second of being here!  Still no regrets! The last time I posted about this, I showed you a picture of what the front of our house looked like right after theContinue reading “Did We Make The Right Decision?”

{S C A R Y!!!}

Have you ever seen the glass bridge suspended over the Grand Canyon?  All I can say is… S C A R Y!!!  Even though I wouldn’t consider myself to have a fear of heights I do have a healthy respect for them.  When my girls start moving towards the edge of some high object whether it beContinue reading “{S C A R Y!!!}”

Clean House!

So as I was tripping out my backdoor on Monday…and when I say tripping, I mean my foot got caught in the strap of a beach bag that had been sitting in the doorway for over a month…I decided that this was the day I was finally going to TaKe BaCk My HoUse! As youContinue reading “Clean House!”

What Am Complaining About?

We live in a world that is constantly striving for perfection and it’s only natural to get wrapped up in the cOmPetitioN.  Wanting the perfect “life”….ya know the perfect house, car, body, job.  Don’t forget giving the perception that your family gets along perfectly and that you have no problems.  Ha! And when some ofContinue reading “What Am Complaining About?”

They Are Paying Attention!

Today I got an email forward from my mom that really made me think.  It was a beautiful poem about what goes on in the mind of a child when we ThInK they aren’t looking.  There are so many times I clean up the toys only to have them scattered around the house an hourContinue reading “They Are Paying Attention!”

Who’s Paying the Price?

Have you had a cruddy day at work recently?  Did something not go your way?  When these disappointments or frustrations happen, who do you take it out on?  People at work or your loved ones that had nothing to do with your Bad DaY? We can all use the reminder every now and then.  Don’tContinue reading “Who’s Paying the Price?”

Mommies…Can’t we just support each other?

I have to admit I am a total junkie for the Your E Cards that have been popping up all over Facebook and Pinterest, but this one really pushes my buttons.  When my son was born my husband and I made the decision together that I would leave my job and stay home to raiseContinue reading “Mommies…Can’t we just support each other?”

You Can Do It!

As many of you have read I have struggled with finding the will to exercise for many years now.  I’ve made excuses for excuses and had convinced myself that even walking was just too much for me to handle.  While reading an article on the beach last week something FiNaLlY sank in and I thought to myself, “StopContinue reading “You Can Do It!”

A Tradition of Giving

This past weekend my son went to a 5th birthday party for his friend, but instead of bringing a present for the Birthday Boy, he brought a bathing suit that will be donated along with a sackful of others to children who until now didn’t own a bathing suit of their own.  My friend BridgetContinue reading “A Tradition of Giving”
