New Year Fun

Before I start, can I just say how much I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new colors? What do you think? Doesn’t it just scream SNOW DAY!? I could stare at it all day long. But there are memes calling my name. So here we go. I did this meme last year, and it was so [...]

Desperately Seeking A Cute, Stylish Laptop Bag

If you missed it, my husband pulled out all the stops and surprised me with a MacBook (laptop computer!!) for Christmas. I’m mobile now! I can blog and design from any room in the house! I KNOW. It’s a frightening prospect. Of course now I have big dilemma — what to get to store it [...]

And We Get To Do It All Again in 11 Months

The second half of my vacation was every bit as eventful as the first, but eventful in a GOOD way.  Which is a pleasant change!  My 3-year-old’s face is healing nicely.  I attribute that to my obsessive application of vitamin E.  My 6-year-old’s rash and swelling went away, although unfortunately not in time for Christmas [...]

Never A Dull Moment

Merry Christmas!  I bring you good tidings of great joy!  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior which is Christ the Lord! I hope everyone is having a very happy Christmas.  I think this might be the first time I’ve sat down since we got out of the [...]

We WILL Have a Merry Christmas, DANGIT.

**UPDATED** It has been quite an eventful 24 hours.  Last night when I was indisposed for a short time, I heard a lot of yelling out in the family room and then a loud crash followed by wailing.  My husband ran downstairs and I heard the kids yelling and him saying, “But is she hurt?”  [...]

Vlogging Peanut Butter Balls

If you need any last minute baking ideas, here is a little VLAWG of me making my peanut butter balls.  I only made one batch this year, much to the distress of friends and family everywhere, but I made sure to capture the process on film.  It’s a bit tedious, but not hard. Peanut Butter [...]

I Survived. (Survival is a relative term.)

I am pleased to announce that The Birthday Party of 2008 is now history. I say The Birthday Party because I only do one birthday party a year. With children born in October, November, and December (and all the holidays that fall in between) there is no way I can do a birthday party for [...]

Deals and Steals

There are so many good deals right now, I thought I’d put a post together for your convenience! Mom Agenda has just launched their biggest sale ever — 20% off store wide. That includes already-discounted prices!  I absolutely adore my Mom Agenda.  I would be lost without it.  It’s a great gift for the busy [...]

When In Doubt, Lower Your Expectations

It seems like EVERYONE is talking about scaling back their holiday celebrations this year.  Everywhere I go — blogs, Christmas parties, church, school, people are talking about buying fewer gifts and doing less decorating.  I don’t know if it’s the economy or if we’re all sick of the demands of the holidays and wanted a [...]
