Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in life as a wife, mom, daughter, sister, and friend.....Hope you enjoy your time with me!
It was thanksgiving last week and we were suppose to be Grateful Right?! So then why oh why do we get so stressed!!!!!
Christmas is such a magical time of year and if you are anything like me you love to find the PERFECT gift for each person in your life. I honestly hate the idea of giving a gift card or cash, but my teenagers seem to think the latter is the perfect gift. I still however, strive to find the PERFECT gift even for the not so fun at times beast we know as a teenager.
It's Thanksgiving...do you find yourself in the "firsts" club like me?
With Thanksgiving right in front of us followed by all the Christmas parties and Christmas, I really need to be watching what I eat. Here is a quick and healthy recipe that I think you and your family will enjoy!
Have you ever heard the quote "faith like a child"? I have numerous times and last night Graeme Berry displayed faith that I only wish I could have an ounce of! His faith was so innocent, so real, and so big that my heart burst with love and joy watching him speak.
I honestly had not planned on blogging today, but after the amazing day I had yesterday, well, I just had too! Yesterday, I got to play with Jewelry and dress a model and help a photographer! As a boy mom, I promise you this is a day in paradise for me! A day away from stinky soccer shoes, stinky dance shoes, and stinky six year old boy clothes!
It's Fall Y'all! Who doesn't love a warm bowl of soup? This soup is from Graeme's God Mother, a.k.a. Ju Ju, and as Graeme Berry says, "Happiness in Ju Ju's soup!"
I don't know about you, but I find myself making mistakes daily. Some days are just a series of tiny mistakes that really amount to nothing, but every once in a while I make a BIG MISTAKE. When the mistake involves my kids I feel awful.
Do you ever find yourself stumbling in the darkness? I don't mean in the "literal sense", I mean in the "figurative sense". I know I do and I do quite often. Usually I can find my way out of the darkness, but there have been two times in my life where finding my way out was like digging through concrete.
Don't you just love the fall? I do! The leaves begin to change, the air is crisp, and football season is in high gear. Whenever I think of football and fall I think of frito pie! Boy do I love me some frito pie! Especially when the recipe involves my Mother in Laws Chili!
If someone would of told me 10 years ago that when my mom died my sister and I would be sharing the responsibility of taking care of my father I probably would of laughed in their face. My father was and still is one of the most independent, strongest, men I know. However, life has taken a toll on his memory and he cannot live alone.
It's November 3rd and the busiest yet most wonderful time of the year is right around the corner! The parties will start, the shopping for the best gift, the charlie brown movies, the amazing meals, and the Christmas decorating will all begin. Just thinking about it all makes me excited, tired, and stressed. I hate that last feeling and I know you do too!
Halloween is behind us and the crash from all the sugar is upon us! Lord help me! If you are like me, today you are exhausted and just want something easy and healthy for dinner. Something that will not create a lot of mess in the kitchen and fuss amongst the multiple taste buds in your house... I HAVE IT! Read along and see if you agree!
Stop in and see what books I read in October and tell me what you read. I am always looking for a good book to read!
They say breakfast is your most important meal....is it? I have no idea! But if you give me a recipe with sausage in it and tell me it is easy....I am in...if you like Sausage, easy, three ingredients, and healthy, read on...this one if for you!
BIG DAY TODAY! I AM TURNING 47 AND ANNOUNCING MY BLOG! WHY AM I SO SAD? READ ON AND YOU WILL SEE.
So as a mother of three very active boys I am always looking for quick and healthy go-to meals, and man have I found one! Come and take a look and give it a Whirl! I dare ya! You might just like it.
