This is our week in review. There have been SO many things. Life is like that, right? We think it is just us, but it isn’t. Life happens to everyone. Let’s see. This week has been sort of crazy in our home. Darby’s Tick Just after I took Darby to the doctor for that wood in her foot (which is…
“Oh, Darby. Your poor little foot.” Darby is 6 years old. She reminds me so much of a little pixie. She is normally fluttering around happily from room to room. Friday was a beautiful day. It’s been bitterly cold even in the deep south. Friday was *perfect*. We had lunch outside, did most of our schooling outside. Even the chickens…
Have I mentioned Bath Bomb Lady lately? 😀 Did you happen to know today was Small Business Saturday?! I had no idea. This is why Courtney and I are making such great business partners! It does make for a great time to share more about our business. (THIS was one of my first posts about our little business venture and…
The Three Month Master Plan is a system I’ve created to help you (and ME), set and MEET our goals! If you are content where you are (and you may be, which is fine, if you are happy), then this post is NOT for you. Just turn away. Walk away right now. This post is NOT for you. If you…
And it is gone. (I still feel like I should have given it some kind of name…it has been with me for so many years!) It’s been a long couple of days for me. About 15 years ago, I developed a lipoma right across the middle of my back. (It was a little closer to the right side than the…
I have not blogged in so long. It seems by the time I sit at my computer, the children are up and active. There just isn’t time to sit and share our latest happenings- we are busy living. Still, I don’t want to forget anything, so today I am up before the children and before the sun. I’m hoping to…
Plantar Fasciitis pain is absolutely miserable. I have tried to cover every single detail I could think of about managing this condition. This does include photos of my shoes and inserts. They aren’t the best looking things so please be kind – I’m posting these because I’m trying to help YOU. 🙂 Some of you may prefer this information…
This post is about so many things, mostly Courtney’s wedding. 🙂 I’m just throwing that out there since it is probably going to seem a little scattered. Did you know you can buy these on Ebay?! I did not. I had NO idea. The last time we looked up replacements for our car, they were going to be about $30/fob.…
This is a quick blog post about Breakfast/Lunch/Snack Rotation for our home. Lately, I have been getting lots of questions about how I meal plan. Some are the regular questions I get about exactly how we feed 13 folks each day (my 3 older children are grown and in homes of their own). The latest questions are just…
Today, I am reviewing My Great Big God for Tommy Nelson. I’m currently in a season of cleaning. At some point, I will fill in all the little details of life that have been going on, (well, some really BIG changes for our family). For now, I’m continuing to clean out every little thing and try to catch up on…
I’ve enjoyed our new books from Tommy Nelson this month. The first was My Great Big God and this one, Night Night, Train. As posted before, I adore adding sweet books to our library for my little folks. We actually have time set apart each day for them to sit and “read” their books quietly. This week, these books…
I’m sharing our favorite baked oatmeal recipe. It was given to us by a very good friend. There are those friends who have just been there forever. They may not be part of your life every single day but they are in your heart. Such is life with my friend, Sheryl. More than 20 years ago, she was part of…
