Nia’s Happy 50th Birthday

Yes, I spotted an Elf!

I’m hoping everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving! Truthfully, I’m still enjoying my Tofurky-Day time off as my mom is here visiting for a couple more days. Just to be sure you didn’t think I wasn’t posting because of some food coma injury, I thought I’d check in and post PROOF that the holidays have really […] Read more…

How Time Flies

WOW! I was looking over my site – looking for items that need updating. I’ve been trying not to spend a lot of time on continually re-designing my site, but as I was checking out the “My Crew” image to the left, I realized, some updating is necessary. The boys have grown and changed so […] Read more…

Boy’s Game Night

I must say, my Grandsons are just so much FUN right now! Westly is just chatting up a storm lately and Hunter, well, he’s just the absolute handsome angel that you see in these photos. I often get a bit jealous that Pops is retired and can spend so much more time with them just […] Read more…

Gardening Season Begins…

Cure for the Blahs…

It’s true, last week was pretty blah for me, but, today… I found the cure. It’s these 3 guys…Westly, Pops & Hunter. Pops loves to take these two monkeys to the park on Saturday mornings. I felt like today, Bubba & I had to show up unexpectedly and invade their “boy” time to join in […] Read more…

Fabulous Friday

Using the word “fabulous” in the title is my secret way of trying to uplift myself today. Sorry, I’ve been a slack blogger this week…I kind of have the blahsssssssss….. AND I can find no reason why! Which, I suppose, is a good thing. I started trying to figure out “what’s going on”, “what could […] Read more…

Wordless Wednesday – Holiday of Lights Fun

Christmas Parade

There’s one thing the little town I live in does big… CHRISTMAS! It began last night with the annual town center tree lighting and caroling. After which we started a new tradition at our house of having friends over for homemade soup. I made the potato soup from the recipe I posted a few weeks […] Read more…
