We went to Jackson today so we could visit, and I’m suspecting the main reason was for the boys to play golf! I shopped by myself for a while and got 2 pair of shoes. Then we went to a matinee showing of the movie Amazing Grace with Stacy & Tim. It was a really […]

Well not me, I usually don’t win anything and probably won’t this time either! But I decided to jump on the bandwagon….nothing to lose, right? There’s a fun contest going on over at 5 minutes for mom and you can get all the details here. I would REALLY love to have this Dyson vacuum and […]

Hubby uses this saying ALL the time! Saw this over at Susanne’s and I think I’ve seen Stacy and others do it as well. Seemed easy enough to do this morning while I’m thinking on other things to post later maybe! 1. Name six things in your refrigerator. skim milk, flavored creamer (white chocolate macadamia […]

Haven’t been able to get to my blog for a few days now. My blog is tied in with the family website that my sister and her husband take care of, and their internet went out on them! Yikes for them. I at least had internet and email access and they didn’t have anything, no […]

So if you can’t think of anything to write about, I guess more photos from the ski trip will work. No action or skiing, just mostly the baby, we only like her a wee bit! I’m missing the other 2 little ones also, hope to see them before too long.

Oh my 3 girls would SO know what that’s from but they never read my blog. 🙁 No one else has probably seen this movie and it’s not quite the time of year to watch it! We went to Colorado for spring break to ski and got home last week. Two of our four kids […]

I was gone some last week and didn’t plan a menu, and I felt slightly disorganized at meal time! Funny how I’ve come to depend on this for meals each week. I think it’s always good to have a plan even if some meals get pushed aside for other things that come up. So I’m […]

Several people asked how I made my spring Easter egg wreath that I posted about and showed a picture of here. I made mine last year but didn’t do any step by step instructions! A friend had made one so I sort of copied hers…….Martha is in no trouble of losing her job, I’m not […]

I took 4 books with me last week when we went on our ski trip to Colorado. Daughter K thought it was silly I think to have so many with me but like I told her, I get “twitchy” if I don’t have enough books with me or if I run out of something to […]

Several of you said I should go to the doctor so I finally did go this afternoon. Got x-rayed and looked at, there’s nothing broken. That’s good but it still hurts like the dickens! He said the joint was pretty swollen and bruised and that it would take some time for it to get better. […]

Just got home this evening from a spring break trip with some of the kids! We went skiing in Snowmass, Colorado and had a blast. One of our favorite places to ski……the weather was great, sunny and warm. But now I’m all thumbs, thanks to a weird fall I took on the snow. Details later, […]

It’s been really warm here in the South lately and feeling very spring-like. I might be a little early with this but I decided to put my Easter egg wreath up on my door. I think Easter is about 3 weeks or so from now so maybe not too early! I was happy with how […]

I got caught up on watching my 24 tape yesterday so we’re all ready for the “Jack Bauer Power Hour” tonight! Don commented yesterday that Jack had been in a Chinese prison for 2 years, never spoke a word, was probably tortured, and on the day he gets out he has to go save the […]
