Frugal Friday

My Frugal tip for this week is a simple one, and may have even been posted before. When I buyFabric softner sheets, I always open them up and cut them in half. Half a sheet of fabric softner works just as well as a whole sheet, and lasts me twice as long. After you have [...]

Mirror Mirror

I think the scariest job out there is being a parent. We have this awesome responsibility of  bringing up our children-training up our children to be loving, giving, selfless, productive adults and as a Christian we have the added responsibility of raising our children to love God. Today I was driving in the car with Zoe [...]

Menu Planning Monday

I’m often given a hard time about planning out my menus by the week or sometimes by the month, but I find it so much more helpful to me to plan them this way so I never have to ask myself what are we going to have for dinner tonight. It also helps with the [...]

Water Mania

We went to the Water Park yesterday. Zoe and Zack had a blast! We only spent about three hours there which was fine since the tickets were free, from when Steven  won them off of his radio station, but three hours was plenty. We got up Saturday morning a little too early ahemmm… Zack was up at [...]

Our Box

Angel Food BoxWe picked up our Angel Food Box yesterday. I wanted to share a picture of all of the stuff we got. I don’t think there was as much meat this time as last but we still got chicken breasts, a turkey roast, pork loin, beef patties and meat balls. The picture isn’t great and [...]

Satan Lives

I don’t know how many people caught the Primetime show Outsiders last night but one of the pieces was on Jose de Jesus. The man that claims he is God and has thousands of followers around the world. Watching this just sickened me. It is amazing the power this man has over all of these [...]

Daddy’s Girl

There is something so sweet about the bond between a little girl and her daddy.  Zoe adores her daddy. I love watching the two of them play and talk. Steven is such a great daddy, he listens intently to all her rambling stories- and she has a lot of them, he plays endless games of hide and [...]

Parenting A La Cart

We hosted playgroup at our house today. Zoe loves it when all her friends come to our house to play and she gets to show off her toys and destroy her and Zacks room without getting in trouble I love this time with other moms, we can talk about just about anything and [...]

The Secrets Out

Another sleepless night… Only last night instead of the usual night interuptions from the children, I was awoken by our puppy Callie not just once but twice. After the 4:00 a.m. wake up call I was laying in bed wide awake, knowing that Zack would probably be waking up soon and trying to decide if [...]
