Scary. Ben is out of town for NINE days! He’s a Jr. High leader at our church and is on a mission trip to Tennessee with 15 pubescent boys and girls. I’m not sure I’m jealous. We have never been apart this long since my 6 week trip to Germany when I was 17 years […]

Celebrate Nature
It’s the ungodly hour of 6 am. I’ve been up since 4:30. And normally I would be hating life, but since we’re about to load up in the car and drive an hour to pick Nolen up from camp, I’m a-ok! I can’t wait to get a hold of that boy! The designers from the […]
Happy 4th of July!
We’re about to leave to pick up Popeye’s Fried Chicken and hang out at my mom’s house for the day. It should be fun…but there’s something big missing today. It’s my son! He’s at camp. His first “spend the night” camp. I miss him so much! He’s always the first one up in the morning […]
My Target find!
When I was at Target the other day, I came across one of those deals where it’s so cheap you just can’t help yourself. When I bought this magnetic collage set, I couldn’t even tell exactly what it was. But for $2.50 (orig. price $9.99) I figured I could afford to find out. To my […]
Amanda made me do it
Amanda has been at it again – making a TON of new templates. And since I live and die by them, this is good news for me. She just completed 3 more 2-pagers and needed a sample of one of them in use…perfect excuse for me to do some more scrapbooking. So when Ben walks […]
Retirement sale coming
Many items are already there but there’s still more coming…so you might wait to shop until tomorrow. We’re preparing for a big shopping cart switch but no drop dead date on that yet. Enjoy the deals while you can because they won’t last!
Rain, rain, DON’T go away!
Our weather has been crazy around here. Lots and lots of rain! I personally love the rain. I woke up to the sound of soft thunder this morning and I was immediately excited. It’s like rain automatically gives you a license to sleep a little late, curl up on the couch and watch the tube…or […]
Summer Fun
The girls and I ran up to my local public pool and played in the splash area today. You just can’t beat it – $1.50 and unlimited fun! I’m really trying to do something every day with the kids, even if it’s a walk around the neighborhood. To heck with the dishes! So…the Potato Bar […]
Potato Bar Sneak Peek!
Just 24 hours until the Potato Bar opens! We’ll have nearly 200 items at 99 cents each!!! And the free with purchase is incredible…but you’ll have to come back on Tuesday to see it. Remember, the Potato Bar will only be open for 3 days, so you’re going to have to hurry. If you are […]
Habitat
Today was supposed to be an all-day sweat-fest…but the weather was not on our side. I’m part of a group at church called Disciples at Heart. It’s a mentoring program that has given me the awesome opportunity to mentor a very cool high school girl named Laynie. As one of our all group get-togethers, we […]
