Purex Complete Crystals Fabric Softener
I like my bath towels to smell fresh. A few months ago I had coupons for Purex Complete Crystals Fabric Softener, so I tried it. I have always been a Downy fan, but I was impressed. Impressed enough that I wanted to write about it, because I like to write about things I enjoy or […]
Bathtime at the Zoo
This is what met me when I walked into the bathroom last night. Dinosaurs. Cows. Horses. Sheep. Sea Creatures. Although my kids loved taking their baths with these assorted animal figures, their mother didn’t even necessarily want these guys hanging out in the bathroom while she took her bath. Strange, I know. But, they take […]
Believing God
I am in a Bible study group right now and we are working through the study “Believing God” by Beth Moore. If you’ve ever done this study, this will sound very familiar. There are five points we are memorizing and studying. God is Who He says He is. God can do what He says He […]

A Homemade Fort
There was a fort in my backyard a few weeks ago. My kids had a great time building it and playing in it. They are quite creative at dragging things from all corners and creating something they want to play in. It doesn’t look like much from some standpoints, but they don’t care. Being a […]
Corn Harvest
I like to take pictures. I don’t always take the time for it and I can get behind in getting them off the camera and in backing them up and in all the things that do go along with pictures. Or invariably, I don’t have my camera with me when I especially want it. That […]
Wind
I have this thing about wind. *stage whisper-I do not like it very well.-* NOT VERY WELL AT ALL. I know that sometimes we need wind and it can be used for energy etc. etc. BUT I DON’T LIKE IT VERY WELL. I am all about its gentler cousin known as a breeze. A nice soft breeze. […]
