What do you do when your leggings get a rip in them and you don't have a needle and thread? Use electrical tape, of course.Yes, this really happened.Over the weekend we had Christmas with Justin's family. Check out these crazy cousins:My secret pal at school got me the greatest gift(s) ...
Hot Mess
This morning was Monday from the moment my alarm went off....for the THIRD time. I had set it for 5am to get up and run, which I cancelled the second it started beeping. Then, when my back-up alarm went off at 6am, I hit snooze. Which I NEVER do. I am not one of those people ...
71 years old
I have been shoulder-deep in field trip planning this week. Tomorrow, our entire school is going to see Disney on Ice: Princesses and Heroes. In case you didn't know, planning for 600 students and faculty to go on a trip is no small task. I'll need a whole week off after this, just to ...
Via the Camera Roll
I have spent the last two days stuffing myself with good food, shopping my heart out, and then being completely lazy. It's been wonderful :) Here are a few pictures of our week:From one of my runs this week with Max. Tell me your dog does this too..... he grabs the leash and ...
Thanksgiving Day
Happy Thanksgiving, ya'll!! Today starts my FAVORITE time of the year! This morning, the girls and I slept in. I got up around 7:30 and enjoyed a cup of coffee (or two) in the quiet. The girls stayed in bed until 8:45! I went in to wake them up, but they looked like this:I just ...
Pre-Thanksgiving Day
The girls and I spent the morning cleaning and washing clothes. We put the big tree up, but didn't decorate it yet. (Decorating for Christmas before Thanksgiving was a HUGE issue for me, but I'll get over it!) I took Max for a 2-mile run, because he is CRAZY hyper lately. I dropped him back off ...
An Attempt at Hunting, Girl-Style
Sunday afternoon/evening, we took the girls hunting. I love hunting and went a lot before the girls were born, but never saw anything big enough to kill. (This IS on my 30 Before 30 list, though!) Kyndall has been a few times with Justin before, but this was Libby's first time. ...
The Weekend Lens
This weekend, Aunt Kristi and Uncle Luke came into town and we hosted a baby shower for them. The girls love them so much! The girls got to meet new cousins from Kansas.I think they hit it off pretty quickly....On Sunday, we met Kim and Shannon and the kids for brunch at Cracker Barrel, ...
Halloween Fun! Warning: Photo OVERLOAD!
The girls chose to go as Smurfette and Princess Sophia this year for Halloween. We purchased 2 Sophia dresses for the diva (AKA: Libby), but neither would do. We ended up borrowing the one she wore from a friend of mine. If you are in the market for a size 4 Sophia dress, hit me up ...
Our Southern Sled Dog (PETA, please don’t diss me!)
Max has been SO full of energy lately. Our walks/runs aren't helping at all. So the other day, while we were outside trying to work out some of that doggy energy, Justin got an idea. And it went a little like this:And this.PETA, I know this is not normal behavior. I also know ...
Once Upon A Time…. The Baby Powder Fiasco
Years ago, I posted these photos and this story on Facebook. But that was before the world of blogging...well, my world of blogging. So now I feel the need to share it with all of you. So grab a cup of coffee, a blanket if you need one, and get comfy while I tell you a story.Once ...
The Greatest Pumpkin Patch Ever!
This weekend, we went to Lyon Family Farms in Taft, Tennessee. I consider our family an expert on pumpkin patches in our area--we have been to every single one within a 2 hour driving distance. Lyon Family Farms was, by far, the greatest ever.Here's the crew (shirts courtesy of Crafty ...
