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…
A Christmasy Happy Birthday #WW
I woke up this morning the mother of a 17 year old daughter. We partied all day – a morning movie followed by frozen yogurt, then an early dinner and a Christmas concert at the DC LDS Temple Visitor’s Center (so good!) to finish the night. Oh, and let’s not forget birthday presents (pictures…
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…
Winter Concert Time #WW
Tis the season for winter concerts…and we’ve had a ton of them! High school barbershop/chorus, elementary school orchestra, high school play….and later this week we’ll have high school orchestra. Fun times! What have you been up to lately? Seven Clown Circus | Parenting By Dummies | Angry Julie Monday | Live and Love Outloud…
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…
Gingerbread Houses 2013 {Wordless Wednesday}
Our first snow day of the year was the perfect time to decorate the traditional gingerbread houses. The kids had so much fun putting their, um, personal touches to their houses… What have you been up to lately? Seven Clown Circus | Parenting By Dummies | Angry Julie Monday | Live and Love Outloud…
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…
Christmas Tree 2013 {Wordless Wednesday}
I’m trying not to mourn the (hopefully temporary) loss of a memory card that contains all of the traditional pictures of my kids decorating the Christmas tree this past weekend. Luckily, I snapped two shots with my phone…and may just have to take some new pictures of the tree this week. I love that…
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…
FROZEN Marshmallow S’mores Sundae #DisneyFrozenEvent
Note: I was invited to the brand new Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop next door to the El Capitan Theater (where I saw FROZEN last week as part of the #DisneyFrozenEvent press trip) and not only received a sundae on the house and a bag full of Ghirardelli chocolate to take home, but…
