Some day we’ll have a fancy master suite spa bathroom that isn’t shared with one hair-obsessed tween and one 6-year-old prankster. Until then, I never know what I’m going to find waiting for me first thing in the morning. Continue reading →

I’ve been making a concerted effort to cut back on our TV consumption. We don’t watch much to begin with so it hasn’t been a big sacrifice, plus this fall has been extremely busy with travel soccer and twice weekly practices for Miss... Continue reading →

Last year for Lent I gave up drinking any and all forms of alcohol. I somehow lived through this trying time and came through on the other side, well…thirsty. I don’t even really remember last spring or how I managed... Continue reading →

I don’t know if Spring Break fever has gone to my head or it’s all the exhaust fumes from chauffeuring my girls all over the place the past four days but I think I’m losing it. Spring break staycation when... Continue reading →
