I’m not quite sure how to start this post. My best friend is moving away this weekend. I am thrilled for her family and frankly wish that I could pack my family up and follow her across the country (for more reasons that one!). But I am desperately missing her already. Safire and I…
The Best Day of Christmas 2013 {PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot}
The kids went back to school today and that means that I’m back to work. I’ll have to start cooking real food (and not holiday goodies). And I’ll have to stop sleeping in until 9:00 every morning. Our Winter Break was relaxing, filled with lots of sleep and lots of good food. But my…
The Traditional Christmas Morning Picture {PSF Give Me Your Best Shot}
Every year since my youngest son was born, we’ve taken a Christmas morning picture under the Christmas tree. The picture HAS to be taken before a single present is opened. The tradition started because Dad was typically the last person in the family to make it out of bed. The picture was created as…
Decembers Gone By {PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot}
Another week gone by, another memory card filled with pictures of food. This week, I’ve been busy baking all of my traditional Christmas treats: caramels, English toffee, Minty cookies, butterscotch bars, fudge… And yes, all of the recipes were posted or linked earlier this week. That’s what I’m all about, you know. And so…
First Snow Day of the Year {PSF- Give Me Your Best Shot}
It was rather amusing to see my kids’ reactions to the snow this week. On Sunday, when we were sent home early from church so that we wouldn’t get stuck away from home when the storm was at it’s worse, the kids were almost indifferent. When we realized that school would be cancelled for…
I Found the Christmas Tree Pictures! {PSF Give Me Your Best Shot}
After losing the memory card with all of the pictures of decorating this year’s Christmas tree, I realized that this was the last Christmas tree that my oldest would be home to decorate with us, as she prepares to head to college next year. Sure, she’ll be home for Christmases, but not for early…
Thankful {PSF – Give Me Your Best Shot}
Since I’m sure most of you are either eating Thanksgiving dinner, recovering from eating Thanksgiving dinner, preparing for Black Friday shopping….or recovering from Black Friday shopping, I will keep today’s post short and sweet. I am thankful for so many things. For a supportive, loving, flexible family. For friends that make me smile. For…
Family Pictures on the Beach {PSF Give Me Your Best Shot}
I would love to take family pictures on the beach someday, but I don’t live near the beach. Lucky for my brother…he does! While I was staying with my brother and his family in San Diego this past weekend, we took a little trip to the beach for some quick family pictures. Aren’t my…
High School Senior to College Hopeful {#PSF Give Me Your Best Shot}
In honor of my oldest daughter sending in her college application this week (how did THAT happen?) I thought I’d show off a preview of some of her high school senior pictures, taken by my amazingly talented sister, Andrea Hatch. I’m unbelievably proud of her. I still can’t understand how she came to be…
Cheesecakes, Sweet Pork, and Brownies. Oh My! Give Me Your Best Shot
There is not enough time in the day or days in the week to get everything done that needs to be done around here. Yet another week has gone by and the only pictures I took were photos of all of the food I’ve been making. I thought about making a collage of all…
