But it would appear I have a wild-about-the-outdoors, rough-and-tumble Cabela Boy on my hands. When he’s not riding on the tractor or working in the man cave with his daddy, enjoying leaves and dirt for their unique tactile qualities, playing with his cars and making engine noises, or mounting something unstable and destined for disaster…he’s hammering something breakable with something… Read More

An Upgrade
We are LOVING our new home {that we waited patiently 6 months for} and are most definitely enjoying the gorgeous, colorful, Autumn-infused view from our kitchen/dining room/family room/deck {it’s pretty open plan…you get the idea}. It’s a far cry from our neighbor’s hot tub, which sat a mere 10 feet away from our little kitchen window, which I’m sad to… Read More
The Black Dog
I must confess, I’m not a dog person. I always thought I would be. And I really like the idea of being a dog person. But as it turns out, I’m not. I’m not a fan of dog hair on my floor, my furniture, my clothes, or anywhere other than…well, attached to the dog. And considering the fact that their… Read More
The Scoop
My hubby and I started the Love & War marriage series at church last night. We love being married. We love marriage. And we think everyone else should too. This book {and DVD series} is so good. You should read it. We then lost power late last night in a most magnificent display of lightning, thunder, wind and rain. Our… Read More
It Is True
I’ve been a total slacker when it comes to recording my 100 Day progress, it is true, but I’ve done surprisingly well getting in my veggies and staying away from “naughty” food {bar our spontaneous midnight McDonalds run on the way home from the hospital, in search of a salty fry fix , and minus my 2 handfuls of animal… Read More
Wheelbarrow Racing
of the immovable kind. That’s the sort of thing that occurs outside the man cave {the “other” garage} when an overturned wheelbarrow sits, with it’s body begging to be climbed on and it’s wheel asking to be spun. Besides, she’s always up for something fun {although she does prefer fun when it collides with dangerous}… And after cross-country skiing on… Read More
My Husband Rocks!
{need I say more?}
Chalk Therapy
Chalk. Chalk mani. Chalk butt. Chalk love. Chalk naughtiness. Chalk leaf. Chalk legs. Chalk pedi. Chalk show. Chalk envy. Chalk hair. Chalk therapy.
Introducing: Easy Egg Dinners with Cricket
Forgot to take that chicken out of the freezer? In desperate need of a grocery shop to fill your empty fridge? {or in our case…find out at 5:57pm that hubby took entire container of leftovers you were banking on for dinner to work with him last night}…? Never fear…our super duper egg-cracker Cricket is here! Just follow along… Crack lots… Read More
Today. We’re. Home.
Today was a BIG day for us. So big, in fact, that we decided to hit Burger King in desperation celebration. Wasn’t quite the date we had planned for this exciting occasion, but hey. {this sad fact brought to you by our desperate need for babysitters in our new area} You see…we’ve been living in a home that isn’t… Read More
Today in a {Photographic} Nutshell
Quite possibly the least exciting part of my day {accurately represented by the scintillating color scheme, ahem}… Quite possibly the most exciting part of my day… My husband unleashed me on the lawn. On the Snapper, none the less. I know, isn’t he sweet? Having never mowed a lawn with anything other than a little push mower {but being a… Read More
