I have found one of my new favorite cookies. Over the weekend my mom decided to bake something different and pulled out her old recipe box. She uncovered a finger-licking’ treasure! Lol. We went over Sunday to visit with some relatives and everyone was raving about the cookies. It was such a hit that I … Read more

Gabriel did it! The second graders have been preparing to make First Reconciliation (confession) and Saturday was the big event! It’s been such a blessing to experience school from the parent perspective. I love being a part of helping him learn things…and me re-learning it again! I can’t believe all the things I forgot over … Read more

My husband Jim is so funny. You know, some men like to see their wives dressed up with their hair done and ready for a night on the town. Other guys like a lady more relaxed in an oversized sweatshirt and jeans. For my man, nothing beats some good Carhartt’s! So you can imagine his … Read more

I was just going over my calendar and realized this week we are a month and a half away from Christmas! Our Toys R Us and Target toy catalogs came in the mail a few days ago so you know we are getting close.:) Jim even put up the Christmas lights over the weekend. We … Read more

Here’s one the kids will LOVE! I found the cutest website and I admit, I probably love it as much as the boys! It’s www.talkingpets.org. You type a message and make the dog/cat talk. You can get funnier than that for a 2 year old, (or a 30 year old apparently)! I found this article … Read more

A video everyone should see.

Last night we met John Tesh and saw his show. It was good! Our station (95.5 The Fish) brought him into town. He is so funny, I had no idea! We took Grant because he doesn’t get much one-on-one time with us, so this was special. He is so TALL, I look like the Keebler … Read more

Well, up until this point I have pretty much successfully avoided all matters of politics.:) This has definitely been a race of historic proportions hasn’t it?! Our street is currently divided almost straight down the middle with yard signs. I see bumper stickers and even homemade banners on my 50+ minute drive to work every … Read more

Have I mentioned how much I love this album?! A while back I previewed “A Baby Changes Everything” on my blog, then counted the days until it was released on her Christmas CD. Well, I’ve had it for about 3 weeks now and I can’t stop listening to it! I know I’m crazy to be … Read more
