Five. Already. For Real This Time.

The baby. My Boo. Today he turns five. FIVE! He’s been saying for the last year (or two) that he was five years old, but today, he really is. He’s been at home with me for five solid years, and in a few short months, he’ll […]

He’s Older Than I Am.

Today is my hubba-hubba-husband’s birthday.

He may be another year older but his butt is as cute as ever.

Happy birthday, babe!

Through the Lens Thursday: Plant and Happy

Do you ever get so sucked into some book or TV show or whatever that you can’t think about anything else? (YEAH. duh.) That’s where I’ve been lately with the Harry Potter series, and it’s been really, really hard to want to go back to regular life. Now I’ve finished […]

Double Digits

Today, he is ten. Ten! The first of the four to hit double digits.

TEN.

He’s a chatty boy, the one that I have to remind (usually gently, sometimes exasperatedly) that we don’t always have to talk.

He’s a helpful boy, the one that can’t quite keep out of any and all conversations […]

Letting Go.

Patience has never been a strength of mine. Since I was little, I’ve tried to find out what my presents were before the holidays happened. I get tired of waiting on people when I’m ready to go somewhere or be done with something. My least favorite time of year is […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Box

It’s been a crazy busy week (in a good way!) and I almost forgot what day it was (for the second week in a row. Ahem.) On Sunday, we celebrated my grandpa’s 90th birthday and my grandparents’ 63rd wedding anniversary in the community room after their church service. My […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Delicious (Happy birthday, Mom!)

I’m not a foodie, or a baker, and I don’t take particularly good photos of food or baked goods.

But, I think I’ve grown into a pretty good daughter (if you don’t count my high school years against me).

Today is my mom’s birthday, and it’s a pretty big milestone. The kids […]

Easy Gluten Free Shortbread Cookie Crust

Gluten free folks! Don’t forget that I’m giving away FIVE boxes of gluten free corn dogs! Go, Enter!

My husband’s birthday was last weekend, and he’s a guy that knows what he likes. Since he was little, he got cheesecake from a box. But forget the crust that came with it…he […]

Project 365: Week 42

We only have ten weeks left in the year. Whaaaaat. Oct. 12 This was my Sunday, basically. We both enjoyed it. Oct. 13 It was cold and rainy, so I baked. (This week is started out pretty exciting, eh?) Oct. 14 Henry turned nine. I….had a bit of […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Deception and From the Ground

So, I missed last week. I wasn’t feeling it. (And yes, I did come up with the prompt “deception” because I DON’T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING). I did take a picture or two, so I’ll just do them both here. Okey dokey? Deception Fall around here looks pretty bleak. […]
