Spring Horse Show – Wordless Wednesday #Linky

Maryland horse show

My BFF is teaching horse back riding lessons at a local farm, and her kids were in a horse show this weekend. I took my two youngest kids to watch the horses and enjoy the beautiful Spring weather and country surroundings. It was a nearly perfect day (don’t get me started on AJ’s incessant whining [...]

When Big Sister Does Her Makeup – Wordless Wednesday #Linkup

12Apr29_anniversary17_10

On Sunday night, Reese, my 9 year old, emerged from her big sister’s bedroom, where KitKat (the big sister) had been practicing her hair and make up skills. Holy cow. That’s all I have to say. 9 years old? I’ve got a long 10 years ahead of me… For more inspiring photos, check: 5 Minutes [...]

Doctor Who Tardis Egg – Wordless Wednesday

Dr. Who Tardis Egg

My almost-13-year-old daughter, Necco, is a huge DR WHO fan (so is my 15 year old daughter, who by the way, claimed she was going to marry David Tennant until his recent birthday made him older than her dad). Necco is also an artist, and her current craze is turning everything (like her Kindle case [...]

Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival – Wordless Wednesday

12Apr14_Kissimmee2_206

I had intended to leave my camera home for my Saturday at Disney World, but my friend Carrie convinced me that I would appreciate having a camera with me at Epcot. So I begrudgingly packed my heavy camera bag for the day. I am SO glad I listened to Carrie. She knew what she was [...]

A Day at Castle Park – Wordless Wednesday

disk swing

Castle Park is one of our Spring Break traditions. We picked today (because of the ideal weather) to meet some friends for a few hours of outdoor play time. Can you tell how much fun they had? Who would have guessed that AJ was up all night with the worst croup I’ve ever seen? Yes, [...]

ZUMBA®, Salonpas, and Sleep – Wordless Wednesday

zumba-logo

I love to dance. I need to exercise more often. I love when I can combine something I love with something I need to do. It’s the best of both worlds. Except in MY world, I have a bad knee. I have to sleep with a pillow under my left knee every night because of [...]

newborn baby girl

One week old and perfect in every way. I can’t get over how precious my friend’s new baby girl is. And I got to spend all morning with her. Today I am off to New York City to see Wicked and hang out with my blogging friend since 2008 (that’s basically forever, you know!) who [...]

Social Queen – Wordless Wednesday

Lolli and Lily Collins

I could have titled this post “Who’s the fairest?” but I really didn’t want to hear the answer to that… Last weekend I was in Santa Monica, CA (see last week’s #WordlessWednesday) for a Mirror Mirror press day. Have I mentioned yet how much I loved the movie? I can’t wait to share it with [...]

Santa Monica in Pictures – Wordless Wednesday

Santa Monica

I already told you how I felt on my walk down the boardwalk in Santa Monica. Now, take a little walk with me and see some of the sights that I saw. Imagine the smell of cinnamony churros and the sound of birds calling and children laughing. Imagine a world vibrant and warm and varied [...]
