I recently re-connected with my wonderful friend, Amy, from high school. Facebook is awesome for that reason! Amy is a very talented person all around (she always was pretty amazing) and now she has her own at-home business designing and creating custom sterling silver jewelry. You can check out her blog here to see some…
Vintage ads. Wow!
This is absolutely hilarious and scary at the same time. It makes me grateful to be relatively sheltered from advertising. I’m sure a lot of what we do nowadays is not much better. You’ve got to see these vintage ads (click here!). I especially liked the one talking about the benefits of BEER for moms…
First snow, rocks, and things to be thankful for…..
Despite the first flakes of snow that fell late this morning, my friend, LT, and I drove to Virginia to enjoy the beautiful landscapes at Great Falls. This is a gorgeous spot on the Potomac River, and it has been too long since I’ve been there. In fact, I think the last time I was…
Custom Camera Strap GIVEAWAY!!!!
Just sharing a cool contest for anybody out there with an SLR. Plus, I’m tired and I would love to not have to think of another post right now. I shopped all day with my mom, Al, and my sister and niece, and then said the big Good-Bye to my mom. PB went to Florida…
Cure for those melancholy days

20 Essential Ideas to Help Create a Better Family — Part 2 of 4

Here ya go, Krista!
Last week, my friend, Krista, tagged me…..and since I have to come up with something new to write every day this month, I figured I’d go ahead and “answer” the tag, since I spent the morning with Krista and was thinking of her. BUT, I’m totally not going to follow the rules (Krista, I’m breaking…
Shop til you drop, and then watch a movie!
That basically sums up my day with my Mom. We took Al and my niece out shopping and out to lunch, and then came back for naps and later homework with the big kids. Now the kids are vegging with Grandma in front of Kung Fu Panda (don’t you love how Grandma was the only…
Sunday surprise!
I know I promised to continue my notes from Education Week…and I promise I will come back to those. But, today we got a big, exciting surprise! Actually, truthfully, I found out about the surprise on Thursday night, and I kept it a SECRET that Grandma (aka–my MOM) was flying into town to stay with…
Thankful Turkeys – a Thanksgiving Craft
The other night, we made Thankful count-down-to-Thanksgiving Turkeys. We had so much fun making them! I love how each turkey started out completely unique, but then everyone started noticing the cool ideas from other family members, and added clothes or other features. We made enough feathers for each turkey (it was supposed to be…
