More fun than galoshes in the rain.
I have so, so, so many posts sitting in draft mode. Some waiting on photos, some waiting on words. There’s a sleep update and a President’s Day to never forget among others. Here’s a peek into part of our Valentine’s Day: Joshua had big plans for his valentine box – a science experiment. His dad […]

Happy Birthday to my dad! This is his present this year – He gets to redeem it in a few short weeks. 🙂 Homemade bread, pancakes, chili and oatmeal raisin cookies were all recipes I mastered at a young age. The cookies were for the benefit of my dad. Of course he shared, but those […]

Here’s a fancy take on the classic “check yes or no” note. A “choose your own greetings” card, but backwards because the giver gets to pick the sentiments and even the punctuation. 🙂 Who doesn’t love to be told they look dapper? Or wished a day full of scrumptious shenanigans? {I might have had […]

beautiful Valentine-y brushes by Rhonna Farrer This photo was taken on my first Christmas. I believe it is at my Grandma’s.

Sparked by an idea from Martha’s site to use CD sleeves for goodie packaging. A little waffle cookie, some chocolate drizzle, cinnamon hearts… pure sweetness. I also used these to send a little birthday happiness in the form of peanut butter truffles to a dear neighbor. Four big truffles filled up the clear window nicely. Many […]

{Seeing as it is Fast Sunday, testimonies have been on my mind. Besides the sacrament, the things I miss the most from Sacrament Meeting, when I’m home with sicky little ones, are all the testimonies that are shared. I have had a lot on my mind the last few days and wanted to put part […]
[Continue reading...]Jim Bob and I are getting good at taking turns. We have to when half our household is sick. We prefer going to the temple together, but took turns yesterday so that we could both worship. There was a wonderful baptism yesterday too. It’s been a few years in the making. Three of the children in the […]

This adventure is not exactly what I was expecting. I was looking forward to feeling invigorated and more time in the morning. Perhaps that will come with time. I sure hope so! 🙂 I thought I might miss that time in the evening when I get things done. Instead I find myself incredibly tired and wondering […]
