Here’s my pink poodle! How cute is that? Too bad she says the costume is too small. A friend gave it to us awhile ago, and I was really hoping it would fit this year. But my little poodle says it’s “TOO TIGHT!” Oh well, at least I can post a cute picture of her.
“Too [...]

Mother’s Day is coming up – have you given your hubby hints to what you might like? My request was very simple. The other day I was grilling and brushing more marinade on the chicken when the brush part fell off the handle. It was easy to rescue but it needs to be retired after 8 [...]

We had a great time at a Christmas celebration at church! Our 4 year old sang in the kids choir (he’s standing second from the left). They sang ”Come on ring those bells!” Our children’s pastor actually asked our son to be Joseph (imagine the photo ops with that one!) but my son was very sure [...]

Every Christmas, I must remember Angel Rose…and smile.
In 2005, I was pregnant with a remarkable little girl at Christmastime. We found out at Thanksgiving that she had defects that would cause her heart to stop beating in a matter of days or weeks. But it was Christmas and she was still fighting. Her little heart [...]

When you get overwhelmed by the 10 Christmas gifts you still need to buy (5 of which actually have to be sent somewhere!), do you ever turn to food? If so, you’re not alone!
