At the end of last week, after not seeing my husband for days at a time, and never having a break from the house and kids, I came up with a great idea. Get out of town! I was sure that 4 days without kids was just what I needed. I was feeling a lot…

Tell Me a Story Tuesday–My Birth
Starting today, I am trying something new on my blog, purely for my benefit (because I am much more likely to stick to a goal if I make it public!). Every Tuesday, I am going to {try to} post something I’m calling Tell Me a Story, inspired by Cherish Bound. As many of you know,…
Playing Catch Up
My plans for today got cancelled, so I am playing blog catch up. I added a few new recipes to Family Food and am in the process of adding photos to my Project 365 Blog. And after I’m done with that, I’ll have a new post for you here. Meanwhile, AJ is playing with Bratz….

Our Story
Let me tell you a story. Many of your have heard this story because, well, I talk about it quite a bit. It’s my life. When I met CandyMan, one of the first things I discovered about him was his love for languages and cultures. As newlyweds, we spent a summer in Russia, and I…
Digging for Dinos!
“Yeah, right! You’re foolin’. There aren’t any dinosaurs buried out here. It’s an April Fools joke, right?” “What? You mean we’re really digging for dinosaur bones? Can I use the hammer and chisel?” “Don’t people get paid to do this for real?” “Look! I found a bone! This looks kinda familiar. Are you sure this…
