    False Advertising

    That may sound like a strange title, but it’s true. You see, usually when I go yard-saling (is that even a word? probably not, because it’s underlined with a red squiggly line.), I just drive around looking for signs. I live near lots of different neighborhoods, so my method usually has pretty good results. This…

    Warning: this is a picture-heavy post. Okay, I warned you. Also, all these pics were taken with my ipod, so they aren’t super fab. But I wanted to share anyway. 🙂 For starters, my hubby announced that the “dress code” would be dressy casual. Usually, we both know where we’re going because we’ll go out…

    The Big Move

    Well, as promised, I will share pics of our new abode. First of all, I should remind you that these are horrendous pics all taken with my ipod. Horrendous. Really horrendous. All that aside, I figured it would be better to share some bad quality pics than no pics at all. 😛 Second, these pics…

    Just so you don’t miss the announcement:   Yep – we’re having a little Buster!! 🙂 As you can imagine, Daddy is very excited. Mommy’s excited too – partly because it’s a boy, but mostly because Daddy really wanted a boy. And big sister has no clue what’s comin’. 😉 I asked her, “Do you…

    Workin’ With What I Got…

    Do you remember looking at those picture books when you were little – the ones where it showed a stripe up close and you had to guess what it was, then on the next page there was a picture of a zebra? You don’t remember those? Hm…well, I loved those books. And just in case…

    Hey all! So, a few weeks ago I told you about how I’m starting to work on my “photography skills.” bahaha…that’s kinda a joke. I mean, the “skills” word is a joke, not the fact that I’m working on them. 😉 So, in my mission to improve, I’m going to start participating in Sweet Shot…

    Have I mentioned that I’m going to Panama this summer? I think I did – really briefly – when I talked about the boot camp my hubby and I went on in preparation for the trip. This week I’ve been starting to prepare for my missions trip to Panama. My hubby and I are taking…
