It is hard to believe that is has been over a month since I last posted on my wonderful blog! December 6th I posted about the cool surprise we had in store for Emily and that surprise was the whirlwind trip to my happy place, Disney World! Well the trip was amazing and I still […]
What’s the haps…
Oh, the weather outside is absolutely beautiful!!
First real snowfall of the year is happening right now and it is gorgeous!! Big, fat lazy flakes of fluffy white snow are drifting to the ground, but there is a lot of them 🙂 I do love the snow…I just hope the drive in the morning will be okay. So I have set up […]
Great conversation…
Tonight I finally “met”, via the telephone, my wonderful Disney kindred spirit friend Kim! Kim and I have exchanged countless emails in the past few months and I feel like we have really gotten to know one another this way. Our notes probably started out kind of formal, as probably all new friendships do, but […]
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (to coin a phrase )
I am so freakin excited right now I can hardly stand it!!! I have just taken the biggest step thus far, the one that makes this little sojourn irreversible, well technically it is reversible, but that would be just silly and a huge waste of money so no reversing on my part. At least not […]

Old photos and fond memories
Wow, just typing that title has made me vaklemp! How am I going to make it through an entire post?!! This is the emotional side of me that my darling Emily has inherited from me and I from my mom and so on.. There is a sale on at the Price Club for the next […]
William’s saga continues…
About eight days ago I blogged about the successful challenge test that was given to young Master William to see if he was still allergic to dairy. He passed that test with flying colours and I was just so happy for him and all that it meant. Fast forward a few days and our house […]
My First Published Review!!!
Earlier this year I had the good fortune to run across a want add of sorts on a popular mom blog. This blogger was seeking guest writers to contribute articles and reviews to her blog, Theme Park Mom. I jumped at the chance to offer my services! The TPM blog is hosted by Leigh Caldwell […]
Operation Christmas Child
I recently received the brochure in the mail for the fundraising campaign for Operation Christmas Child. Oddly enough I had noted this week in my calendar to start getting ready for this very worthwhile cause. Let me share this with you from the Samaritan’s Purse website; “Operation Christmas Child brings joy and hope to children […]
