With just over two weeks left of school for this semester I am managing… Continue reading A bit of an update

Will We Ever Catch A Break
When Dusty and I made the decision to move to Texas and go to school we knew that things were going to be tough. We knew that there would be very little time for us to spend together as a family, even less time to spend as a couple, and that money was going to… Continue reading Will We Ever Catch A Break
Growing Up…
I am addicted to reality TV shows. Not the crazy "Real World" or "Bachelor" type reality TV. I'm addicted to the food competition type shows. Recently, I have locked on to The Taste. I love it. At the beginning of the season, when the contestants audition, they always talk about who they are, their age, and… Continue reading Growing Up…
My path is paved with good intentions….
It never fails. I spend hours and hours putting together schedules and charts and all that ridiculous pinterest-y type stuff in an effort to "get organized" and "make things a little easier."I go at it for a week or so and yes, things do tend to go more smoothly and I even begin to see some… Continue reading My path is paved with good intentions….
Its official: I’m over it!
Warning: This could get a bit long and probably a bit whiney, but I just have to vent sometimes.Let me begin by saying that I know that life probably isn't as bad as I am most likely going to make it sound.

No Naps for Me
There is nothing a mother looks forward to more than nap time....well at least this mother. Every so often I even take some time to lay down and rest myself once the kids are down for their naps.However, today I had to accept the horrible reality that I just can't take naps. No matter what… Continue reading No Naps for Me

The other one was the Taste of Home Dinner on a Dime cookbook.402 budget friendly recipes that… Continue reading Foodie Friday
2013 Wrap up and the problem with January 2nd
If I could attribute one word to the year 2013 it would probably have to be "challenging." I don't say that in the negative way that many people might see it in. I don't mind challenging actually. Challenge is what keeps life interesting. 2013 marked Dusty's second and third semesters here at Southwestern. It also… Continue reading 2013 Wrap up and the problem with January 2nd
