Is it time for #BlogHer10 already?

Tweet It’s hard to believe that the biggest women’s blogging conference is only days away. I remember last year, like it was yesterday – I had a great time, but the fun and excitement was somewhat derailed by a terrible migraine that left me impaired. Not this year!! This year, glowing and very pregnant, I [...]

Crawdad Catch

Tweet I hollered at my older four kiddos and their friends to stay together as they headed down the street on their bikes to explore the nearby creek. I’m still a bit reluctant to let them go far, only because I still don’t trust some of our neighbors. I do, however, trust my kids, so [...]

An Afternoon with the Youngs

Tweet So, we headed out this morning with a whole list of things to do to prepare for our weekend away. I was not looking forward to it and neither were my kids, but I think we did okay. Now, I always, always do two things before I pull onto the street with my kids [...]

Keeping Cool at Sonic

Tweet What do the Youngs do to keep cool on a hot summer day? We go to Sonic for ice cream, of course! Last Sunday was particularly sweltering, with the mercury rising over 100. It didn’t seem quite so hot, though, when noshing on Sonic Blast’s made with real delicious ice cream and chunks of [...]
