Happy Fist Bump Friday and Some Link Love

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 with it that we forget…

Week in Review: Week 18

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 me… Three of my five…

Week in Review: Week 17

Hi! How was your weekend? Ours was pretty nice… All kinds of excitement going on around here: two of my kids went to Prom, two went bowling in semi~formal wear, and The Hubs and I had a Date Night. So. Much. Fun. I love when my girls and their friend show up at my job.…

Week in Review: Week 16

Good morning! One of the major things that I’ve learned from blogging and photography is that we need to document our lives. It may seem a little narcissistic and a tad bit crazy but think about all those moments you wish you’d captured… Not the big planned moments but the little ones that seemed insignificant…

2014 Daily Selfie: Week 5 {In the Dark Room}

Hi, how are you? How was your weekend? Are you getting snowed in? I sure hope we’re not, but I heard we are. I don’t know about you, but I am so over this cold weather. Seriously, it’s time for spring. I don’t care what that ground hog thingy says… Did you notice that I’m posting…

2014 Daily Selfie: Week 4 {In the Dark Room}

Happy Monday! How’re you guys doing? I’m doing well. I spent the weekend doing what I usually do: vegging in front of the TV. Did you happen to catch Lizzie Borden Took an Ax? It was on Lifetime and starred Christina Ricci, who took crazy to a whole nother level. And can I give a round of applause for the…

My Favorite Moments from 2013 {In the Cafe}

So, here it is, the last day of 2013. This is all kinds of crazy. I mean, I know time passes but, gosh, doesn’t it seem like the older you get the more quickly time passes? I wonder why that is… While sitting here watching The Twilight Zone marathon {an annual tradition in my home},…

November Photo A Day Challenge: Days 10~15 {In the Dark Room}

Day 10: Book When I moved out on my own, I took three things from my parents’ home: a few books, a chess set, and a doll. Day 11: Memory 1994. I was promoted to Corporal by Capt. DeMassey and the hubs. Side note, I’m pretty certain I was violating all kinds of reg with…

November Photo A Day Challenge: Days 4~9 {In the Dark Room}

Happy Monday, y’all! I hope you guys had a good weekend. My weekend started on Friday and lasted through Sunday. Yay for long weekends! We didn’t do anything, just hung out around the house. But, sometimes, you just need to take a break and do nothing, amiright? But there are times when you really need…
