Too-Fab Friday!

Today was so fabulous with so much going on that I am way too tired to try to think up 5 things that made this week wonderful! Plus, since I’ve posted a daily recap each day for Jeff, you have seen the ups and downs of my week. So to quickly recap today: Sarah was here.  She is the best!  She is a great friend that I can talk with, cry with, laugh with and she is so very creative.  She made this... read more

To-Do List Thursday!

Today FLEW by – that’s great cause now it’s just a day and a little over a half until we can pick up Jeff from the airport!  This morning started out with Kayla coming over to help watch the kids while I was upstairs vacuuming, sweeping and mopping, dusting, and more!  I was so grateful to her for taking such good care of the kids so that I could get so many things knocked off my to-do... read more

Wednesday was a Play Day!

Our Wednesday was very busy and full of friends!  This morning was kicked off by a play date with Allison and Hazen Combs – I love that kid! (His mom isn’t too bad either…)   These photos crack me up – Hazen’s faces are priceless and it cracks me up that Charlotte was even trying to push him as she laid down on the kitchen floor. After the play date Kayla Brown came over... read more

Second Day Away

Today was Jeff’s second full day away from home.  So far it hasn’t been as bad as I anticipated, I think having my sister staying with us helped keep me company so I haven’t had much ‘down time.’  I’m alone tonight and the next couple days save some play dates so we’ll see how it goes! From what I can see on Jeff’s tweets and the few times we have been able... read more

Our Day in Photos

This post is really for Jeff, but we had such a fun day I thought I’d share!  I tried to take photos today so that Jeff could see how Charlotte was up to!  Turns out we had such a good day it was easy to take a lot of pictures and I want to share them with you too. Hannah (my sister) is here staying with us for a couple days to help out, it was great having her here to help with Charlotte and the... read more

Father’s Day

Father’s Day was an odd day for us this year.  Jeff was set to fly out to Charleston South Carolina at 1 that afternoon to work a week of M-Fuge camp.  Jeff spent many summers working Centrifuge camp years ago, and offered to work a week of camp as a fill-in this summer.  It was bittersweet preparing for his trip – he is going to spend a week doing something he is passionate about but this... read more

Mini Vacay!

Long story that I won’t get into here, but I found out last week that I was going to have Wednesday-Friday of this week “off”!  I was really looking forward to this break and having time with Charlotte and friends and family.  Jeff is leaving Sunday and will be gone for a week so the timing is perfect – have a little break before the week that may be a little crazy!  We had a... read more

Fab 5 Friday

1. Swiffer Wet Jet with Febreze: I have used my Swiffer Wet Jet as a Fab 5 before, but this time I’m using the new MultiPurpose Cleaner with Febreze Lavender Vanilla!   I have loved the smell of this particular Febreze scent for years now, and I’m so excited that my floors will now smell just as nice every time I mop!  Such a refreshing and calming scent. 2. Chem-Dry Stain Extinguisher: This... read more

Fab 5 Friday

1. Shift: This is a new game I picked up my iphone – for F-R-E-E! The best things in life are free, right? Plus, I love simple, puzzle games that you don’t have to start over each time you die!  Each level you are trapped in this black and white world and you have to shift yourself into the black or white side to get to the door, of course lots of obstacles stand in your way!  There is a paid... read more

Scentsy!

The week of June 20th, Jeff will be in South Carolina working a week of Centrifuge camp.  He is looking forward to it as he used to spend whole summers working camp.  It will be hard on him to be away from home for this long and it will be hard for Charlotte and I to not have him here! My friend Sarah from Kentucky will be coming down that Thursday evening to spend that evening through Saturday with us!... read more

Fab 5 Friday!

This week has flown by!  I have to try to remember it enough to be able to come up with my Fab 5… 1. Pool Time!  I just posted a whole entry about our first 2 trips to our local pool so I’ve already talked about it enough, but considering we went twice this week, it had to make my Fab 5! Head over here to read all about our splashing and swimming – and to see more pictures like... read more

1st pool time of the summer!

Our family has now joined the Longview Rec Center here in Spring Hill!  Jeff has been paying for 10-20 visits at a time to go to the gym but now since I want to go to the gym (yes, it’s a long shot!) and even more so, since we are going to be going to the pool a lot this summer, it was worth it to get a membership.  The best thing?  To get to the rec center we load up in the car, drive through the... read more
