Encouraging moms they can do ALL THINGS through Christ who strengthens them!
Every year, as the new year approaches I start trying to decide which planner to use for the upcoming year. I scour the internet and search my local office supply stores but I never quite find exactly what I’m looking for. Last year, I had an Erin Condren Life Planner, I loved that planner, it was so pretty and had a lot of great […]

Our typical meal plan the last few months has seemed to consist of chicken, chicken, chicken, and more chicken. I’m not really sure why, we just seemed to have gotten in a chicken rut. Desperate for a change of pace, we added an all time favorite to the line up this week- spiral sliced ham! Ham is almost like a comfort food to […]

Remember “the dress”, the controversial picture that went viral? Some people saw gold, others saw blue. Turns out it was a visual problem. The way our screens portrayed the colors or something.

“Hey Mama-mia Bring your Mama to Carrabba’s” Have you heard that catchy little jingle? It usually comes on around Mother’s Day but it sticks with me all year long. Ask my husband, I just randomly belt it out. Monday was my Mom’s birthday and of course that song came to mind. Since we are on a budget, taking her to […]

I mentioned last week that my little girl loves strawberries! (What’s not to love?) As a result we almost always have some in the refrigerator. One of my favorite things to do with them is make strawberry spinach salad. Yum. It’s light and a little sweet- perfect for a summer dinner or even a quick lunch. I love the simplicity […]

During the summer I love to make things for dinner that don’t heat up my house. I use the microwave, the grill and the crock pot to my full advantage! It’s already 90 something degrees outside- who wants to stand over a burner or crank an oven up to 350°? Not me! Especially since our air isn’t really all that […]
