• The shopping trip that brought me to tears.

    It's an outing I make at least once, if not twice or more, a week.  My visit to the nearest SuperTarget usually brings out the chipper mood in me.  Being greeted by the automatic double doors, reaching for a bright red cart and glancing at the checkout lanes to see…

  • Comfortable

    There's just something about a good ol' laid back Girls Night Out that rejuvenates the soul.  I guess in this case it was technically a Girls Night In.  A friend of mine so graciously hosted a Bachelorette watch party at her house last night and it was just the thing…

  • Modern day fairy tale

      Nathan recently brought home a fairy tale project he completed at school.  I SO had to giggle at his storytelling and imagination!  The jist of the story goes like this: Lonely boy loses five dollars.  Two nights later lonely boy loses one dollar.  Lonely boy sets up a camera to spy…

  • Sunday trip to the drugstore

    This afternoon I headed out for a tiny trip to my local CVS which is normally not a weekly stop for me.  I was, however, compelled after looking through my Sunday circular as the deals were too easy to pass up.  Here's my haul:   When I came home and…

  • So not-a-boring Saturday.

    It's back.  The busy season of baseball.  This morning was a chillax one with a bit of sleeping in for me.  That is, until I was woken up to wipe a butt and then woken up again later because my kids were hungry. I figured that was a good reason…

    As the temperature begins to warm up (it WILL warm up, right?), my mouth can't help but water at the thought of sucking down one of these yummy strawberry-lemon spritzers!  {@ Dine & Dish} My kids LOVE going garage sale shopping.  Now I have even more reason to take them,…

  • Random things I like to do.

    Eat Cool Whip out of the container.  I mean, seriously, WHAT could be better?  I've never been one to count calories.  If I feel good, I am good!  I also use REAL butter….no fake stuff, because otherwise, what's the point? Drive with the windows down in 99% humidity.  I am a…

  • Mother’s Day 2011

    Today was g-g-g-g-GREAT!  Waking up to the sweetest homemade Mother's Day cards, enjoying some time outside in the (finally) HOT and sunny weather, enjoying a little nap on the couch, some cold iced tea along with a fabulous lunch out, and then dessert!  Oh, the dessert!   Ok, well I…
