As I mentioned in a post last week, our girls came down with a cold/flu bug and were home from school for several days. On Friday both my hubby and I started feeling icky. Knowing we had 2 market events that weekend, I decided to rest and give myself time to feel good enough to[…]
In yesterdays post, I said I’d share the outcome of todays Capital One Pre Sale for the Taylor Swift tickets I’m trying to get for my oldest daughters Christmas present. Wish I could share that we scored tickets, but we did not. I decided to use a different computer this time in case it getting[…]
Todays the day that Taylor Swift’s Eras tour tickets go on sale for verified fans. My daughter, husband and myself all became “verified fans” in hopes of getting a chance to purchase tickets to her concert early. It was kinda ironic that only the true Swiftie of the family got a presale code. I was[…]
Saturdays around here are my blast from the past posts, which are basically posts I’m bringing over from a private family blog I had then my girls were super little. Felt like this one was a good one to share since it all about Fall activities when my girls are 5 and 3. Enjoy this[…]
There are so many fun ways to document your children growing up. One of my absolute favorites that I’ve done is the wedding dress grow up. All you do is each year on your anniversary, take a picture of your daughter in your wedding dress. If you’re planning to preserve your dress, this might not[…]
So every Saturday I’m sharing a post from one of the 3 blogs I had back before Facebook entered my world. I had a private family blog, one for my health/wellness coaching business and one for my sewing crafts. I know, it’s a lot but if you know me at all, you know I like[…]
How it started On October 2nd, I was personally invited via Facebook messenger by my friend Barb to attend a local Helping One Woman – Goodyear, Arizona event. I had never been to an event before and didn’t know the recipient but wanted to check it out to see about becoming a sponsor for my[…]
Its Saturday and time of another Blast from the past series! This is a series of blog posts that I’m moving over from a small family blog I had when I girls were younger. Today is called a budding entrepreneur. Its seemed fitting since Saturdays are our market day for The Scrunchie Sisters. The following[…]
Growing up in a family of 8, there was a time during my childhood where my mom made our clothes. If my memory serves me right, it was from 1st grade until 5th grade. Our house burned down when I was in 6th grade so it wasn’t until 8th and 9th grade that homemade clothes[…]
Today is day 30 of my 100 days of blogging and its also Saturday. This means is market day for The Scrunchie Sisters. Needless to say, its been a busy day and I’m not feeling especially creative right now. I’d didn’t get a blog post planned out for today earlier this week, so in these[…]
I have loved every season of being a mom. I feel incredibly blessed that I’ve been able to be at home with them for their entire childhood. And while being a first time mom comes with a whole slew of challenges and adjustments, I feel like being a mom of teenagers is a whole new[…]
Normally I would just post a picture of my two girls on Facebook saying…its Pink Out day for spirit week to support Breast Cancer awareness and call it a day. But now that I’ve shifted my focus and am doing a 100 days of blogging challenge, I thought I’d share a little bit more about[…]
I can’t believe it…my family agreed to do a group costume this year for Halloween! Its been hit or miss the last couple years because of COVID and my girls not really wanting to dress up together! But with it being my oldest daughters last Halloween at home, they’ve agreed to dress up together!! I[…]
Yesterday was our first day back to our outdoor events for The Scrunchie Sisters. Who are the Scrunchie Sisters you ask? I thought I’d go ahead and share the story of who they are and how this who scrunchie biz came about! The Scrunchie Sisters are my two teenage daughters! In April of 2019, I[…]
It’s Day 8 of my 100 days of blogging. I’ve successfully completed one full week of posting a blog post day! In all the years I’ve had this blog, I’ve never done a blog post for 7 days straight! I’d say 100 days of blogging is going good!! Yay me! But there is still so[…]
What is it about having a senior in high school that has me feeling all the emotional feels. I think this may have me more worked up and emotional than when she started kindergarten. Perhaps because its the end of a season of parenting where when they start school you still have them at home.[…]
