Now that I’ve slept in my bed one night, I’m so ready to be back in our 8 bedroom on the beach house with the 20 people I care about most. Last week was pure bliss. We stayed here in the OBX. I’m one of four kids and we are all married and have kids, […]

Sometimes I just can’t think three weeks in advance for a card, so I can’t order a nice picture card from a photo company. I also HATE the store bought wordy cards that you have to pay an arm and a leg for. They usually go straight to the trash and I would much rather […]

I began to think that I should take more videos of my kids. I often (or always) forget. So, I found some questions that I could ask my kids on each of their birthdays and see how much the answers change each year. I found some cool questions here. Here is a video of my […]

Pinterest struck again! My friend was debating what dessert to make for a Memorial Day cookout, so I saw this on Pinterest and I told her to give it a try! I just love trifles! Okay, so you want to see the easiness of it?! All you need is: 10 oz angel food cake, cut […]
