Slacking (again)

Tweet I have to apologize… I have not felt very good all day. I didn’t have any energy to do anything around the house, and quite honestly have just not been in the blogging mood. (Did I really just admit that?)I’m hoping that I will be back to my old self sometime tomorrow, although I [...]

Busy Weekend

Tweet Can you believe that I was so busy this weekend that I didn’t even have time to blog? Well, in addition to being busy, I have also been hit hard by the smoke-filled air and have been getting horrible headaches because of it. Fortunately it hasn’t seemed to bother our lungs much… With three [...]

Party Planning

Tweet I am on a quest this weekend to find everything we need for Julia’s birthday party. I know, her birthday was in May, but we are celebrating her six years of life in just a few weeks. You see, she wanted to have a “water fun” party with a big water slide for the [...]

Even though I was nervous to be [...]

Sounds WonderFALL!

Tweet With wild fires close by, the hot air has turned gross, and we are running out of fun things to do indoors. I have found myself daydreaming of a vacation. Not from the kids, mind you, but from every day life at home – laundry, dishes, cooking, cleaning. How I long to grab my [...]
