Tasty Tuesday – a day late

I won’t take credit for this recipe (though I have some of my own to share), but in the midst of tailgate season I can’t pass up sharing these. I had the awesome privilege of spending last weekend in Jacksonville/ St. Augustine, FL. To my college football fan readers you all know it was the infamous UGA/FL

Soul Food

So a little fact about myself, I teach 5 year olds at Kids Church. I have been teaching kids for a long time now, but been with this age group for a little over a year now. I love this age. But a Sunday recently I had an amazing opportunity. Normally Hubby does not work with

The Point

So after starting this blog, I had to a take a step back to gather my focus some. Regular Postings will be common now that I have had some time to sort through my thoughts. My Story Mondays – I will share about who I am and my journey in life. Tasty Tuesdays – I

Backing Up

So I started this Blog because I want to be real and honest about life as a mom, and the transition home. So here goes some embarrassing honesty. I left my job in June 2011. My last day was on a Friday. On Monday we had speech therapy for Lala, and swim lessons for the other

Just another Manic Monday!

Today was a day adjusting back to some normalcy in routine, but was a crazy manic Monday as well. We traveled for the month of September.

Super Saturday Special: Double Chocolate Pancakes
