Full of a place to go.

December 21, 2009

I love Christmas and the week leading up to it is full of a place to go. Today is Monday and we start our week with graham cracker house building. It’s our third year and each year my husband and myself (it’s supposed to be about the kids, but oh well) have a healthy competition [...]

Christmas without Christ?

December 18, 2009

This is so wrong….No Christmas music in a shopping mall, no Merry Christmas from fellow people, no Christmas tree at school (its a “holiday tree”), and all the while we are encouraged to buy buy buy. Why do we give gifts if we don’t include Christ in Christmas? What is going on???? I believe the [...]

Snow, snow, snow, snow.

December 14, 2009

I have lived here, in the Sierra’s,  most of my life and growing up I remember staring out the window praying that the rain would turn to snow. Snow would mean no school, of course, and snowball fights, snowmen, and hot chocolate. It is such a joy to see my 4 year old as excited [...]

My pursuit of organization.

December 10, 2009

Everyday I am continually trying to figure out how to keep the kids toys organized. I have been to a few houses where everything is tucked away in a box but the boxes seemed to out-number the people. So as the years go by and the toys pile up I decided to organize our life [...]

Time Management, OH MY!

December 9, 2009

Regarding time management; I have never considered myself an disorganized person until I became my husbands fiance. When I was planning our wedding I really did not give the idea of time management a thought, so when asked by his family the details of the wedding planning I rarely had an answer. Needless to say [...]

If you had an extra half hour.

December 5, 2009

I am sure like myself you have an extra half hour in your day, so what would you do with it? I think if my extra time is without the guilt of needing to be doing something else, I would sleep. I love sleep, and I’m sure I never get enough of it, but laying [...]
