One of my favorite Christmas memories as a kid and now that I have my own children is making caramel. Each year it gets a little easier for me as the kids get a little more capable and helpful. I was shocked at how much AJ was able to wrap! The other kids are pros…
Spotlight on Necco
Every once in a while it’s fun to spotlight one of the kids. Today the spotlight is on Necco. During the last year or so, she has really blossomed, and we have become so close. I am proud to say that she has shown an interest in a lot of the things that I love….
Nicknames (…..I mean headaches)
You know, sometimes it’s annoying that everyone at my house is big enough to have an OPINION. I apologize for what I’m about to do…..but I DID give you warning. Yes, it’s time to update the nicknames again. I am really going to try hard to keep these for a LONG time. So here we…

"I pray because I can’t help myself…."
Today was a busy day. Really busy. Choir, church, dinner, back for a meeting, and a visit. We were out of the house from 11:45 til 8:30. As I was thinking about what I should write about today, and as I skimmed through my notes from Education Week 2008, I came across this quote from…
The sweet taste of Accomplishment!
About 8 years ago, I started making calendars for my Mom, Dad, brother, sisters, and myself for Christmas. I collect pictures from the year that’s ending and make sure that everyone has at least one picture included. It’s a lot harder than it may seem to… a) find at least one picture each of 20…
Full Moon
When I heard that tonight’s Full Moon was going to be the closet and largest that we’ve seen since 1993, I knew I had to go out to take a picture of it. Problem is, I was running places all afternoon and evening and couldn’t catch it. Either I was admiring the moon’s beauty from…
You know how much I like good music…and free stuff!
Just thought I’d pass on a great link. Amazon.com is giving away free downloads of holiday music each day in December. I found out about it today and was able to download over 12 free Christmas songs. And there will be new songs added every day for the rest of the month. They are GOOD…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
My bloggy friend, Francesca, sent me this Holiday Meme. I’ve been sitting on it for a few days, waiting for a day when I didn’t have anything else to say. When did I get so talkative? This was a lot of fun to read, and even more fun to answer. You are welcome and encouraged…
Today must be my lucky day! (Plus feedback needed!!)
I woke up to an e-mail this morning telling me that I won my very first blog contest! I won a blog makeover from April Showers. :) I can’t wait to see how my new look turns out. Woohoo!! To get ready for my new look, I need some help from everyone. Back when I…
