After returning home from my second full day’s trip out with the kids last week, my husband asked a tired me, “Why do you do this to yourself?” I told him the alternative was staying home and watching movies all day. The weather was gorgeous, we live in one of the most exciting places in […]
He is so proud of his sewing skills. I feel guilty for discouraging him from wearing it out of the house. Someday he will thank me. For more Wordless Wednesday, see 5 Minutes for Mom.
Say thank you, with a kiss. Put them in a vase on the kitchen table. Tell them not to pick the neighbor’s flowers anymore!! And then pray that the neighbors don’t look in the window. For more Wordless Wednesday, see 5 Minutes for Mom. And be sure to check out my WordFUL Wednesday post, What […]
I left the house for errands (Dad was home) and came home to one shaved boy and another soon-to be-seven-year-old missing about 3 inches of hair. And with newly cut bangs. Boy, does big sister have a lot of nerve. And a pretty good hand at hair cutting. I would have been upset if she […]

The top 10 things I love about being here in Utah: 1 - Babies. I get to hold them, but I don’t have to take care of them. Isn’t that the greatest thing ever?? This cutie pie is my newest nephew, just 2 months old. 2 - Waking up to a view like this every […]
I’m not sure if I’d be smiling if there was a squishy frog on my back. Ick. My big girl is at a sleep away camp for the rest of the week. She gets back the day before I leave for my trip to my mom’s house, so we’re apart for 2 weeks. That’s the […]
Oh, Good ‘N Plenty. How I love you. And how I wish that my stomach was bigger. When YOU have shoo-fly pie, do YOU sing in your head, “Shoo, fly, don’t bother me! Shoo, fly, don’t bother me…..Cuz I belong to somebody!” ?? Because I do.
