Ahhh I say this every time, but after any time away I really do love getting back into my normal routines. I'm such a weird mix....I LOVE traveling so much but I also LOVE just being at home. 🙂 It's January 12th today and I'm excited to finally really dive into my "new year's" stuff.… Continue reading Normal life & fresh slate
We did it! We successfully pulled a major fast one on the boys and surprised them this past week with a very last minute trip to Disney World. They had NO IDEA it was coming. The surprise aspect was slightly anti-climactic, only because they were so confused that they weren't really able to react in… Continue reading Disney!!!
I'm so excited right now! I only have two minutes to write, but just letting you all know I'll be MIA this next week. We very spontaneously decided to plan a last minute trip for the boys- a SURPRISE trip- and we leave this morning. We have never surprised the kids with a vacation before,… Continue reading Surprise
Coming at you later than usual today due to some technical difficulties this morning. 🙂 Oh the joys. Our little date night last night for Day #6 of the Christmas Challenge turned into less of a "date" and more into spreading out the Christmas presents and taking inventory of anything that is missing, plus deciding… Continue reading Someday….

I need a happy story today. I stayed up too late watching some news and ended up going to bed with a pit in my stomach. When I woke up, my mind went right back to it all and the pit returned. I need to stop thinking about that and focus on something positive. So, I think… Continue reading A Mexican tradition
It is September 1st, which usually for me always marks the unofficial start to fall. September - December is by far my favorite time of the year, and going way back to when I was in school, I generally loved the whole "going back to school" routine. (I mean, of course I was always sad summer… Continue reading The summer of __________
Hello, friends! I am back. In case you were worried that I had been gobbled up by a shark at the beach, or, even worse, decided to stop blogging (!), rest assured, all is well. We got home late in the evening on Tuesday. We did the mad dash to unload the car before we all… Continue reading No, I haven’t been eaten by a shark 🙂
Just popping in here to say HI from Panama City Beach!We left home Saturday morning and drove to Tennessee by that evening, staying overnight in a hotel. The next morning we hit the road again and stopped for lunch in Montgomery, Alabama. We originally had planned to just grab Subway or something at any old… Continue reading Hi from the beach!
