Month: September 2010

There is NOTHING that makes me happier than knowing I got a good deal on something.  Even to a fault at times I’ll buy something (that I don’t need) only because it was such a steal that it would have been a crime to pass it by.  But this weekend I had a major score. …

I”m a bird!  Or I feel like one.   – I’m flapping my wings….. You know in the movie, oh I forget the name of it… Noah and Ali…. where Ali runs on the beach flapping her arms saying, “I’m a bird! I’m a bird.”  So much hidden meaning in that. I’ve started the nesting process.  Finally…

Oh Norman… You are about to be way too good for us…… We arrived yesterday to our new home and a day later I think we are pretty much settled.  It’s weird living in a home that is “not” yours but becomes “more” of yours because we are here for more than a week.  In many…

What a crazy last few days.  Dave was in North Carolina  for Momentum and I stayed behind getting us ready for our move tomorrow.  We are packed and ready to go.  It’s interesting as I was getting stuff together for our 3 months away, what little you truly do need for day to day.  It…

I’m being inspired by this new fall color from O.P.I. called,  “cuckoo for this color”  Technically it’s still 90+ degrees outside but I’m claiming a bit fall right now. And would love this for the fall too from Lisa Leonard Designs.  There is just something about the aqua green color I’m lovin right now. Feeling a…

You know you things are too busy when you don’t have time to…. Finish telling about time away in Myrtle.  It was truly the best vacation there we’ve ever had. Time with all our family was priceless.  Frankie enjoying the beach and ocean.  Emma out for hours on the boogie board.  Izzie running around the putt…

I have a million pictures and stories to sort through of the last 3 days.  They have been the best.  I always wonder how time passes so quickly.  It does.  Our trip is almost over.  I love that my grandparents and my children’s great grandparents are here each year.  It’s priceless time with them and…

I”ve posted recently on our friends the Davis Family and their son Sterling.  Roger and I go way back.  We met back in Crosspoint world back in the day and for a few years I was his event Coordinator for Student Life Camps.  Through the years our families lives always intersect at moments.  It’s been hard…

I really have the best mother ever.  Not only has she provided amazing childcare for my children as I have worked through the years but she also spends so much time engaging them in teachable moments even at the beach. Sunday morning she read the kids the book “The Bucket Filler”  It’s about we all…

A much needed date night is about to begin.  And the best part of it is the free babysitting that comes with it!
