I have never worn contacts, and hardly ever wear glasses (though as I get older, I fear that I should wear them more often than I do) so I admit it can be tough for me to relate to my husband and three children who really need glasses. KitKat began hinting and then blatantly asking…
Swooning Over #ChrisMannRocks
I cannot believe I left my camera at home last night. I am seriously kicking myself. I headed out to celebrate Resourceful Mommy Amy’s birthday and house warming with a few of my Maryland blogger friends. Luckily, my phone captured the memories, even if the pictures are not the best quality. I admit. I didn’t…
Mom’s Vacation Check-list
Between the pre-trip arrangements and the post-trip slap of reality and the monster game of catch-up, I sometimes wonder if vacations are worth the time and energy. I leave for my brother-in-law’s out-of-country wedding in one week. When I’m in trip preparation mode, my mind becomes a constant list machine. There always seems to be…
Sesame Street Video USB
It’s time to start thinking about the holidays, and gifts big and small are on everyone’s minds. I love looking for fun things to add to my kids’ Christmas stockings, and I have found the perfect thing for my youngest son and my nieces and nephews. I seriously love this new product from Sesame Street…
It’s Orange Week at I Heart Faces
While most participants are probably going for the cute kids with pumpkins for this week’s I Heart Faces orange theme, I decided to feature this orange bride. Or should I call her the “blue” bride?

On Adoption…Dear You Guys
I got my comments all together from this week, and then realized that I wanted to do something slightly different. Instead of making a silly letter like I usually do, I wanted to compile everyone’s comments on adoption. They inspired me. So many thoughts and experiences on adoption in all its forms. So here you…
My Love for Carmex
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Carmex®. All opinions are 100% mine. My love affair with Carmex started when I was a teenager and heard that applying Carmex to a cold sore would speed healing. Menthol and phenol, two of the ingredients in Carmex, both have antiseptic qualities, helping to…
First Frost
I woke up the other day, just like any other day, got the kids dressed, grabbed a jacket and some shoes, and walked the kids to school. I couldn’t get back home fast enough. There was frost covering EVERYTHING, and I had to get back before the sun melted it away. Pictures! Macro, I kept…
