So, I have a stack of books that I am either currently reading, wanting to read, or a couple that I have finished by now. I like to see the books other bloggers share that they are reading or have read. It’s fun to relate to a well loved book or get new ideas […]
Of Teaparties and Good-byes
I really do love a tea party. I hadn’t hosted one for a good while and had thought a few times that it really would be fun to have one. Well, an opportunity presented itself and I knew I really wanted to make the time and effort to do this. {Apparently, REALLY, since I used […]

Willing to Let Go {Five Minute Friday}

Three Things: Winter
Ok, so it’s all cold and wintery out again. We had some nicer weather and warmer temps and I was all set for spring, even though I knew it wasn’t even March yet. I was just ready for spring to bring it on! Let’s see if I can think of three things I like […]
Prioritization
Priorities and Prioritization. Big words. {I had to spell check.} With a lot behind and intertwined in them. Prioritizing can sometimes feel like an impossible, ever changing juggling game to me. Good things are good. There are a lot of good things. There are a lot of opportunities. There are a lot of places that […]
Detailed Nativity
When we pulled out our Christmas decorations and nativities and set them up throughout our house, back in December, Renae took one of the nativities we have and detailed it and set it up in the basement. Then she had fun posing it and taking pictures of it. I loved what she did with it […]
Chicken Crescents
Today it’s Chicken Crescents here on my blog! I get hungry for these every so often! I was thumbing through some favorite recipes to put together a menu for a supper with friends. When I landed on Chicken Crescents, Chicken Crescents it was! I made a favorite rice recipe to go with them. That recipe […]
Lego Themes Birthday
Legos are pretty much Tucker’s main thing. He builds and builds and builds some more. He kept rolling around ideas and debating what he wanted to do for his birthday cake this year. He finally settled on “Lego Themes”. He simply set up a board with figures from a variety of themes that Lego […]

Dad found this one and brought it in for Tucker to see. Quite a sword! New doorlatch/handle going onto suburban. Not my mechanic’s favorite job ever. It […]
Little People {Five Minute Friday}
I remember picking up the magazine and leafing through it. When I saw them, I knew my daughter would love them and I knew what I wanted to put on her Christmas list. She wasn’t even three years old yet, but I knew. Fisher-Price Little People. I remembered playing with the little house and barn […]
Seven and Fourteen
At seven, we celebrated with ponies and pigtails. Friends came to share cake and play games. Jenna, {a doll, but a true and well loved friend} was often with my girlie. Seven years old. Seven years ago. The next seven will bring us to twenty-one. When I was twenty-one, my girlie who was seven, who […]
Chai Tea
We were at a friend’s house not so long ago. In the afternoon she mixed up and heated up and served us some delicious Chai Tea. I seriously doubt that if I was flipping through recipes that I would’ve landed on this recipe and decided to try it just from reading it. I love finding […]
Poured Out Like Wine
I thought this pitcher of grape juice looked so pretty. As I watched the juice pour in a stream into the pitcher the words of this song played into my mind and then fell from my lips in song…{although I couldn’t recall all the words. 🙂 } Would you be poured out like wine upon […]
Mac and Cheese Casserole
How about some more comfort food? Cold weather, casseroles and cozy kitchen with the oven on! When I want something fairly quick to fix {who am I kidding? Isn’t that always what I’m after?} and something we all like, if I think about it, I will make this Mac and Cheese Casserole. It is my […]
