If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you know that I like to do a little something called “Fist Bump Friday”, where I encourage my friends to share something that made them happy during the week. Sometimes we get so bogged down with life and the crazy that comes […]

Happy Wednesday! How was your weekend? Mine was nice. We spent it celebrating my twins’ graduation from high school. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of the actual graduation because I was crying and they all turned into a blur. Funny, right? Anyway, this is Casual Style Formula 5 of […]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, some of my best adventures happen by chance… This past Saturday, The Hubs and I were out for a drive when we noticed a sign in front of Old St. Vincent’s Catholic Church that read “Open for Tours”. I’ve been dying […]
To all of you who’ve lost someone in service to this great nation, I honor you and your sacrifice, it was not in vain. God bless you,
My babies are graduating from high school today. So this is gonna be a rough one for me. I’ve already shared my words of wisdom with them here and here, but now I’m asking you to help me celebrate my twins’ graduation… Please share your words of wisdom with the […]
I love a dress over jeans. Like seriously love love love a dress over jeans, which makes this portion of Sylvia’s Casual Clothes Mini Challenge so much fun for me. I think one of the reasons I enjoy this look so much is that it’s easy. I don’t have to worry about […]
Let me start off by saying, I don’t watermark everything. Not every picture that I take needs/deserves to be watermarked. Do you really think anyone is going to steal that fuzzy picture of my big toe sticking out of my sock? I think not. I only watermark those images that I want […]
So this week is gonna be an emotional one for me… My twins are graduating from high school. High school. My babies. My teeny tiny looked like they still had their tails when they were born babies. I’m so not ready. Let’s not talk about that right now… This is […]
My dear sweet boy young man, you were our surprise. As in nine days before you were born, we found out you’d been in there just chillin’ — synching your heartbeat to your sister’s, matching her breath for breath and kick for kick. Never letting on that you were there. As I […]
Munro. I’ve stopped and started writing this so many times that I’ve lost count… I don’t have the words to express the love, pride, and gratitude that I’m feeling right now. You have overcome so much and demonstrated a strength and grace under pressure that can only be attributed to […]
I missed the second week of Sylvia’s Casual Clothes Mini Challenge but you can see the other participants’ outfit ideas by clicking here. But I’m joining up this week. Kinda. I don’t own any printed pants. I like them in theory but, in practice, they just don’t look so great […]
Three years ago, I reviewed a book by Lisa Whelchel called Friendship for Grown-ups: What I Missed & Learned Along the Way. Lisa talked about how she was on this show that was all about the strength and support that comes from having close female relationships, yet she was all alone. Lisa’s words spoke […]
Hi! How was your Mother’s Day? Mine was nice. I did very little. Just ate a bunch of stuff I shouldn’t and watched a lot of TV. Decadence. Pure and simple. Sitting by the Mississippi River with The Hubs is the only way to end the weekend. My mom and […]
