Since this is my carnival, I can make up my own rules every once in a while, right? I have been itching to share a few more of the pictures from our Christmas trip to Florida. I’ve posted a few here and there, but there were so many more that I wanted to share. And…
It’s a Mom’s Duty
A few days ago, something terrible happened at our house. Those of you with children will understand the gravity of my situation. We lost Doug. Can you see the love in Twizzler’s face for his favorite dog? This picture was taken almost exactly a year ago. Doug has been Twizzler’s security, his friend, his sleeping…
Not Me
Now that we’re back to our normal schedule of school, work, and all that fun stuff, I am happy to report that I did not sleep in past 8:00 every morning for the last 2 weeks. I totally stayed on my schedule of waking up at 6:20. I am not one of those lazy vacation…
Home Again, Home Again!
We made it back home from Florida safely, and now I am faced with not only the horrible task of unpacking, but also the overwhelming task of packing away all of the Christmas decorations. My house is a mess. In fact, it doesn’t look too different than my in-laws’ house looked on Christmas morning, which…
A Good Friend
We are on our way home today, but in the mean time my good friend, Safire, has a guest post for you. Safire is as good a friend as she describes below. :) She will be the first person I call when I get back home. And, can I just say….I’ll be very happy when…
Meet the Photographers Behind Bloggography
I love that blogging has introduced me to so many incredible people that I never would have had the chance to get to know otherwise. Manic Mother is one of those people. I recently had the opportunity to ask Manic Mother a few questions in preparation for our upcoming Bloggography series. Here’s what I found…
Christmas Photo Outtakes
Capturing a decent family picture is a tricky business. It’s hard enough when you’re working with a photographer. But add the additional element of tripod and timer and it’s an adventure, to say the least. I was looking through last year’s Christmas-season pictures in preparation for I Heart Faces‘ Hilarious Outtakes theme this week. I…
Chocolate Crinkles From the Trenches of Motherhood!
It’s Christmas week, and my family and I are enjoying some warmer weather and time with family in sunny Florida. My friend, Mandy, from The Trenches of Motherhood shared a cookie recipe recently that made my mouth water instantly. She graciously agreed to share it with all of you, too! Enjoy (and as Mandy said,…
Merry Christmas from Florida!
I hope each of you are having a wonderfully peaceful and joyous Christmas today. I am enjoying the day with my family in sunny Florida. Except for the fact that rain is on the forecast for today. We’ll enjoy it anyway. We already are. Merry Christmas!
Did You Know?
As a child, Christmas Eve meant a busy day of cooking, a 30-minute drive to Grandma and Grandpa’s house, and en evening of food, cousins, carols, and a very entertaining white elephant gift exchange. Christmas Eve was the best day of the year. Much more exciting than Christmas Day. I knew things would change once…
