Hi!! Jumping on for two seconds to say...see ya next week! We have packed our blue suede shoes and are ready for a little less conversation, a lot more action. 😊 (So dorky. I'm sorry. Couldn't resist.) We are off to Memphis in a couple hours (driving part way tonight and will get there by… Continue reading It’s Now or Never
I've mentioned before that my husband is notoriously difficult to buy gifts for. He doesn't really have any big hobbies that require "gear" or "equipment" (no golf balls or tees to buy....doesn't really like to read....is pretty minimalistic about many things like coffee mugs, etc.....). He is also rather picky about his clothing and likes… Continue reading Birthday surprise
Oh my goodness, I am so exhausted!!! Well, I'm feeling a little more human after sleeping for 8 1/2 hours last night (significantly more than my usual amount of sleep....). I was just sitting here catching up and updating my planner a bit after a hectic last couple of days, and I can kind of… Continue reading Yay weekend
not sure the date in this pic, but at least 15 years ago!! Hahaha! I say this jokingly, because I've talked with a few people lately about that silly old phrase. "Over the hill". I remember that being a big thing when my parents turned 40- everyone celebrated 40th birthdays with black decorations and lots… Continue reading My husband is “over the hill”! 😉
Oh, sigh. Life feels heavy at the moment. COVID is hitting Ivan's close friends & family circle hard in Mexico right now. I won't go into many details, as it's not really my story to tell. But he has lost several people close to him in a short time span and it is heart breaking.… Continue reading Be happy now
One of 19 times riding Expedition Everest on this trip. Yep, definitely their favorite. I know Disney is always a hot topic in travel circles for families with kids. There are MANY websites, blogs, etc. entirely devoted to Disney, written by hard core Disney enthusiasts. Some people are seriously almost cult like in their Disney… Continue reading So, why Disney now?
Fave Christmas Eve pic of the boys + hamsters! Ok, Christmas is really over now! My parents left a bit ago, the presents are mostly put away and the festivities have ended. I'm so happy with what a wonderful Christmas we had! It was quiet and maybe could be considered uneventful for more excitable folks,… Continue reading Christmas 2020!
I touched yesterday on the fact that I was feeling a bit of "gift fatigue". It's not even really just "gift fatigue", though that has been the department that has caused me the most headaches this year. The Christmas season is just always so crazy! It's one of those HUGE Catch-22s for me (and many,… Continue reading Christmas chaos
(Image by Larisa Koshkina from Pixabay) I finally sat down and brainstormed my holiday season/ winter fun list! Here's what I came up with: 🎄 Drive around town to look at local Christmas lights, listening to Christmas music. Either bring hot chocolate from home or pick some up from a drive thru. 🎄Bake cookies together.… Continue reading 2020 Holiday/ Winter Fun List
Happy, Happy 11th Birthday to my sweet Asher!!! Tucked in bed last night....his last time going to sleep as a 10 year old. I know it's so cliche to even say, but I can't believe he's 11. My youngest, my baby....and he is ELEVEN. I feel like the years from starting elementary school to now… Continue reading 11
GRATEFUL KAE
