As I alluded to yesterday, I did not have the greatest shopping experience last week with the obnoxious Monster Sized Wal-Mart Buggy. This image comes to mind… {source} As I’ve mentioned once or twenty times, I usually try to do whatever necessary to avoid shopping by myself with my three *beautifully behaved* {ahem} kiddos. Despite,…

Something New… a Book Challenge for 2012!

On THANKSGIVING!!  You know the one out of two remaining sacred holidays left?  Yeah, not so much anymore these days.  Can we really not survive a DAY without places like fast food restaurants and grocery…

Happy Turkey Day!!!

We have SO much to be thankful for, don’t we? It’s so easy to lose sight of that in the midst of all the petty problems that often consume us.  I love this song from Laura Story called Blessings.  It’s perfect for Thanksgiving and us remembering ALL the many blessings showered on us each day. …
