Three Things {Favorite Finds No. 2}
Here are a few favorites again! {some affiliate links included!} {No. One} These big, fat straws! I love them for ice cream shakes or Root Beer Floats. The very first great, big straws we ever used were at Freddy’s Frozen Custard. Then, one afternoon we were at a friends’ and she had some. I soon […]
Of Party Past
I posted a bit back about a party I had for my sister-in-law. It got me to thinking about how much fun it is to have a party now and then and how much fun it is to go to one now and then and it got me thinking about some parties past and that […]
A Corner in my Kitchen
I spent a little bit of time reworking this corner of my kitchen and later I had a few minutes and picked up my camera and took a few photos. I thought I might stick one of the photos in my Memoir Monday post, but I liked them all and I thought “Hey, I may […]
Memoir Monday {No. 38}
The past few weeks have been busy and I’ve been glad for a couple of days recently to catch up and just be at home. We were gone to Ohio and the week before I left was rather too crazy in my estimation. Then my parents were here which was fun and nice and busy […]
To Fly or To Drive, This is the Question
We were going to fly out to Ohio in May for my sister’s birthday. When back pain entered the picture, our plans were changed, we cancelled our flight, we rebooked later on and found ourselves headed to the airport in August. Tucker was excited since he’d never flown in a commercial jet. Renae loved flying when […]
Today is Tuesday
Today is Tuesday, but not TAKOS Tuesday, {for Lego Movie Fans} and I didn’t take time yesterday to post a Memoir Monday post this week. It seemed I kept busy with other chores and things I wanted to catch up on. I feel a little better each week and I’m very thankful. It’s nice to […]
Birthdays to Celebrate!
Since Renae and Tucker’s birthdays come very quickly after Christmas and since Ohio and Kansas aren’t next door neighbors, our Ohio grandparents have only been here for their birthdays a couple of times. Grandma hadn’t given them their birthday gifts yet, so when they and Emma were out, we decided to have an impromptu birthday […]
Because Chocolate Bunnies Are Important
In my girlhood days, I liked to read and as I read, I was always intrigued with traditions and special moments that families would hold dear. Eating apples and popcorn by the fire. Coming in from sledding and drinking hot cider. Wading through snow to cut down a Christmas tree and dragging it home and […]

A Bit of Spring and Easter
We talked about changing up decor a bit after Christmastime over here. When spring starts creeping closer and teasing us with sunshine and some seventies before wisping away to hide again, I usually think about getting out a few touches of Easter and spring. A few weeks back, I did some decor changing up and […]
An Insignificant Detail About Towels
I had a revelation the other day. Nothing earth shattering. Nothing that’s going to make any big difference. No shout-it-from-the-rooftop news. But it was a revelation to me all the same. I figured out a common denominator connecting my favorite towels. That’s right. Towels. First off, I’m thankful for clean fresh towels. {That’s not the […]
Memoir Monday {No. 17}
Time for some daily details and weekly remembrances! I know, I know. I say it over and over and over and over and over and over, but time really does wing away so quickly. I want to savor each moment as much as is humanly possible and as much as I can, even though […]
Memoir Monday {No. 16}
We started out our week celebrating my “baby” brother’s birthday! We fixed a birthday supper for him and had Matthew’s older brother come over too. We like to hang out with both of them. It’s always fun and makes some good laughs. Uncle Jordan brought his remote control truck for Tuck to run. And it […]
