ENTERTAINMENT
I am a lifelong television addict, and lover of books and movies. I’ll help you stay caught up on some of your favorite shows with my episode recaps. I hope you will enjoy my movie and book reviews, crazy cat videos, and more.
KIDS & FAMILY
Our kids range in age from Kindergarten to college. Check out some ideas for fun family activities, kid crafts, homework tips, funny stories, etc.
FOOD & DRINK
I'm always in search of new recipes and meal ideas for our busy family of 6! I am not a gourmet chef, so the easier the better. My husband is a talented chef however! I hope you are inspired to try some of the ideas that you see here.
LIFE
Every day life is so much easier with friends and family to share it with! I hope that I can inspire you, help you, and lift you up with some anecdotes from my life and from the people who I am blessed to have in my life.
SHOPPING
One of our family mottos is “Never Pay Retail”. Here I will post good deals that I have found, coupon codes, special promotions, and money saving ideas. Of course every now and then I have to pay full price for that perfect pair of shoes!
TIPS & TRICKS
I love to find new and better ways to deal with everyday challenges. I hope to be able to help make your life a little bit easier by sharing some tips with you!
Welcome to my world
Hello everyone and welcome! I am a mother of 4 wonderful children, one furry dog, one rambunctious cat, and lucky enough to be the wife of the man of my dreams. I have done a little bit of everything. I have worked in retail, human resources, finance, a factory, taught preschool, ran a home daycare, and more. My favorite job by far is being a mom. Raising our children and managing our family is the most fulfilling job I could ever ask for. And time consuming….
Whether you have one child or 10, you’re probably as busy as I am, but I encourage you to take a few minutes every day to slow down, breathe, and find something that makes you smile. A few years ago, I began volunteering at our local hospice. The most important thing I have learned from those who are nearing the end of life’s journey, is to take time to value the people in our lives. Don’t spend so much time focusing on the cleanliness of your house, or working all of those extra hours to acquire more stuff. Spend more time with your family and friends. You’ll never regret it! I hope that my site will give you some time saving and creative ideas. It is also my hope that you will be entertained, uplifted, and encouraged.
