Wohooo! What a day to remember! The big long-awaited day for Gabriel’s party finally arrived! Earlier this year a friend told me about a wonderful company that does theme parties. I checked them out and knew the “Pirate” theme would be something fun for Gabriel. We could spend money on toys and “stuff” or something … Read more
Beautiful Birthday
What a breathtaking sunrise! I was especially grateful as I opened the curtains this morning and saw this magnificent day. Today is Gabriel’s birthday! Six years ago today I was sitting in an Army hospital holding my first born child, my son in my arms! It was just days after 9/11 and I didn’t know … Read more
Couture meets Kohl’s!
It’s about time that high fashion became more affordable! Vera Wang has paired with Kohl’s to offer her new collection called “Simply Vera”. She is known for her amazing (and amazingly expensive) wedding gowns but now we can all get a piece of the style pie! I thank Target for starting the trend really. They … Read more
Long Time no Write!
It’s been a while since I’ve updated, where has the time gone?! My friend Heidi was here last week so we were busy sightseeing and catching up. We had a fantastic Labor Day weekend! Gabriel’s birthday is this Friday and now I’m prepping for that and my mother-in-law’s visit. She’ll be here to celebrate Gabe’s … Read more
Weird, but it Works!
I love it when I discover a new beauty product that actually does what it says! It’s even better when it’s super cheap! So last week on the show Len tried to make the weak argument that baking soda is a “scam”. Although he was soundly shot down (ha ha) I’m glad he brought it … Read more
Update
What a week! My goodness. I have so many updates I don’t even know where to begin! If you haven’t heard by now, S.C. (Smelly Cat) attacked Garrett and left our family temporarily traumatized. It was awful and the worst part is that dangerous animal is still roaming the neighborhood and remains elusive. If you … Read more
Smelly Cat
I do not like cats. Sorry, I just never have… and never will. So imagine my surprise when I got home from work today and saw this little “visitor” loitering on our back porch. Garrett was squealing and laughing through the window while Gabe and Grant jumped up and down with delight. Me? I wasn’t … Read more
Video Fun
This is silly. We added a new feature on the morning show thanks to assistant-to-the-associate-producer Greg. It’s a video clip of the week! The goal is to tape something, a stunt, game, or bit from the show and post a new one every week. Of course me being the nit-picky personality I am the first … Read more
Savoring Summer
Next week at this time Gabriel will be an official first grader! I am not ready.:( He’s excited and I am so happy he’s anticipating it, but I am just going to miss him during the day again. Most of all I know Grant is probably going to be a lost puppy without his big … Read more
So Funny!
We watched a great movie over the weekend. I wasn’t expecting much from “Music and Lyrics” but it was my turn to choose the movie so of course I went for a chick flick! ha. If it’s got Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Kate Hudson, Diane Keaton, Cameron Diaz or any other modern leading lady, I … Read more
