Loose Threads and Random Thoughts
Do you like taking pictures? I’m not talking about just snapping pictures of your kids while they’re little so you can remember how sweet they used to be once they become teens? I mean, do you carry your camera everywhere you go? I do. I love snapping pictures and playing with the various editing tools. I’ve even joined a couple of photography challenges. This fall I’ll be joining up with Kristi and her crew for the Shades of Autumn Photo Challenge. For more information, go here. If you decide to join up, let me know in the comments. Last night I had the worst case of insomnia. Ever. I suspect…

Getting to Know Missouri: Cape Girardeau Southside Park
One of the things that first struck me when the hubs and I visited Missouri for the first time was incredible amount of parks ~ 2 large parks, 1 water park and a series of smaller community parks.

At the time, some construction and cleaning crews were in the park doing some…

The kids and I thought we’d have to go at least a week or so without being connected, I don’t know what decade we think we’re living in now. Everything is instant. And many hotels have free access.

You should see them freak out every time somebody…

Congratulations to the Newest P&G Manager {In the Family Room}
Today the hubs is officially a manager at Proctor & Gamble. And the kids and I couldn’t be prouder of him and his accomplishments. When the hubs and I got out of the Army 15 years ago, we didn’t know what we were going to do or how we were going to support ourselves, the only thing we knew was that our family had to stay together. We decided to move to the hub’s hometown in Pennsylvania. He’ll dispute this factoid but our intended term was for a period of no more than 5 years; we’ve been here for 15 years… At the time, I was pregnant with baby number…
