Christmas Break?
In November I drag my butt thru the days as they get longer and longer. All the after-school activities are in full swing and school is in a good rhythm. But by the time December rolls around and the high shopping season starts and the lists get longer and the weather gets colder and the sun gets shorter, well, … Continue reading
One Last Present
I’m officially DONE! Sorry, please don’t hate me. But it’s so good to say it shout it from the mountain tops, I’M DONE CHRISTMAS SHOPPING. (sigh) It was tough this year. What do you get a 10 year old girl who isn’t into toys anymore? And the one thing she says she wants is to go to Hawaii. What do you … Continue reading
Vlogging Telephone
Vlogging Telephone: a group of bloggers getting together and go around a circle answer a question from 1 blogger and then ask a different blogger a new question, all on videos! Make sense? Ok, this is my first ever vlog so go easy on me. If I don’t get kicked off the internet, I might just do more videos. The … Continue reading

Flash Back Friday

Imagine how big I would have been if I’d gone to term? I loved being pregnant every time and despite the hardships we endured during … Continue reading
Blogger Fashion Week
There was a point in my younger days when I had dreams of being a high fashion model. I would practice my poses in front of the mirror in my bedroom. I would walk strut, down the hallway in my house pretending to be Christy Turlington (oh wait, did I just date myself, damn). Anyway, when Trend Trunk asked me … Continue reading
Never Say Never
Let me tell you a story about a girl who used to say things. Yeah, she would say things like, “I don’t run”, not even across a parking lot on a cold winter day and years later she has decided that running is actually her workout of choice. She’s worn out 4 pairs of running shoes since she started running … Continue reading
Fashion Friday: My Closet
It’s Friday. It’s Fashion Friday! It’s the holiday season. It’s time to put on some sparkle and shine. How many parties do you have to attend in the coming weeks? At last count I’m at 7 party invites this year and like any good fashionista, I can’t wear the same outfit to multiple parties. And so I stand in front … Continue reading
Christmas Movie Marathon
I love Christmas movies. I watch all the same ones every year. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Frosty the Snowman. How the Grinch Stole Christmas! It’s like reliving my childhood all over again and the best part is experiencing these classics with my children as my mother did with me and my brother when we were growing up. … Continue reading
