I really do love yellow. My kitchen cabinets are yellow. My upstairs bathroom is decorated in yellow. But apparently, I don’t take many yellow pictures. I had to dig to find one that I liked enough to enter this week’s I Heart Faces challenge.

Take Your Pix Board Book Albums
The GOOD news is that the world didn’t end today. The not-so-good news is that I am exhausted after a full day of attending a movie pre-screening, throwing a birthday party for 25 kids or so (could have been 50), and then photographing a family of 20-something (Grandma and Grandpa were celebrating their 60th wedding…
My Baby is Six – PSF GMYBS Link-up
If I had any doubts about the fact that my baby is growing up, those doubts are gone today. Yesterday, AJ celebrated his 6th birthday. I remember when KitKat turned six years old. She seemed so old. Now with my baby turning 6 and my oldest in high school, gone are the days of bottles,…
80’s Costume Party with Momz Share
I’m usually not the stand-out, adventurous type, but apparently I’ll do just about anything for my local blogging friends. On Saturday, I headed north to the latest Momz Share event with a few of my favorite local bloggers. The theme was the 80s, and I made an attempt at going for the early 80s look…
I Heart Flowers
I would rather be heading to San Antonio this week to get together with Angie and Amy at the I Heart Faces Dream Big Workshop….but I’m still here. Working, dealing with recovering sick kids (and dreading having to go back to the doctor for a fifth time tomorrow with yet another child….). It’s perfect that…
Saturday Stumbles
Saturdays tend to be one of the busiest days of the whole week, with the entire family at home or running to a dozen different activities. I decided this morning that it would be fun to feature a few of the blog posts that I read this week from some of my fellow Broadcast Bloggers….
A Caterpillar Named Mason – PSF/GMYBS
It’s Caterpillar Project season in 2nd grade. Caterpillars and chrysalis’ and mallow plants are all Reese has wanted to talk about this week. So when she brought a fuzzy caterpillar home on a stick on Tuesday, I figured it would be fun for her to observe it for a few hours. It’s our policy to…
Thrift Store Shopping Do’s and Don’ts
I was born with the thrifting gene. It was passed through my mom directly from her mother, my Grandma – Queen of the Thrift Store. I grew up hearing stories of Grandma finding cribs and high chairs and clothes for all of the pregnant ladies in her neighborhood and at church. If someone needed to…
What the Best Mother’s Day Looks Like
This is how Mother’s Day (actually the night before) started for me. It couldn’t have been better. Clean car, breakfast in bed, new yarn, and a day of relaxation. Perfection. PS – I totally shocked my car-cleaning kids when I gave permission for AJ to climb on the top of the van to clean up…
Ebates $1200 Birthday Bash
Last week, I announced that I am a new community leader in the Ebates Savvy Living Community. This week, I am partying with my fellow savvy moms as we celebrate Ebate’s 12th birthday. To celebrate their birthday, Ebates is giving one lucky Facebook fan $1200! They’ll be choosing the winner from their FB fan base…
