This week Amber over at {aefilkins} is hosting another fantastic FMM. This week’s edition is all about Thanksgiving. Amber has put together a short list of questions all about, well, Thanksgiving. 1. Turkey or Ham? Turkey! Yum! 2. Favorite side dish. Homemade Chicken & Dumplings 3. Favorite dessert. Pecan Pie or Peanut Cake {grandmama’s recipe!} 4. Black […]

The things that I am thankful for have made a huge change in the last 3 years. In college, cries of gratitude and thanks fell on the ears of all who were around when spare change was found in the couch cushions or under the bed. My cute apartment, my seemingly never-ending cashflow [that, surprise […]

I am tired. Noah’s new found never ending amount of energy is leaving me worn completely out. I swear, when he actually stars walking, I am doomed. Husband has been home most of the morning today and has gotten a little dose of what I’ve suddenly began to deal with. Since we returned home from […]

It’s hazy out this morning. Looks a lot like rain is coming. I’m starving. It’s too early to be awake. Noah is sitting in the middle of the living room floor in his robot t-shirt & diaper eating cheerio’s and watching Sponge Bob.  Husband is going to be gone literally all day working [gotta love duty week…not.] And […]

Have you stopped lately to notice how eerily similar us moms are in a lot of ways? It’s like, somehow or another we share this unspoken, kinda creepy bond. Sometimes you can just look at a mom and tell what she’s feeling. What’s on her mind. How much  [or more often than not, how little] […]

Hello all of my bloggy friends! I hope you are all having a fantastic Wednesday morning…it’s only 2 days until the weekend so that is reason enough to be in a great mood! This morning, I am linking up again with Sheila over at “To Love, Honor and Vaccum” for another ‘Wifey Wednesday’ post. I love […]

It’s almost that time of year again. Time for toys and time for cheer. Yep. You got it. It’s Christmas Time!! I love the Holiday Season. Easily my favorite time of year…the smells, the cooler weather [yes, I said cooler because “cold” weather doesn’t actually exist in Florida], the lights, the decorations, and the FOOD! […]

Have you ever ran away from  God? I have. For whatever reason, there are times in life that we feel like God is to blame and that the only way to make things right in our lives is to run from him. As if we could actually hide. We get mad, or upset, or frustrated […]

The past few days have been crazy busy for me. I have been trying my hardest to get caught up on laundry. I seriously have NO clue where it all comes from. I feel like I have been doing laundry ALL day and I still have 3 loads sitting in the floor in the hallway […]

Sometimes it amazes me how powerful and wonderous God is. I mean, it’s one of those things that I know but sometimes I don’t always acknowledge it. I take a lot for granted [I shouldn’t, and I’m working on it, but I do] and I don’t always take the time to give God all of the credit that […]
