Last week I had two days of Horrible Terrible No Good Very Bad Grumpy Mom Days. Boy, was I a “grumpface,” as we call it in my house. I was tired. I was looking forward to bedtime and trying to figure out something to do the hour before bedtime that didn’t involve me snapping or […]
Last week I had a surprise contest where I asked you to email your answers to this question: What activities do you do with your kids when you are stuck in the house during cold weather? (You know, so you don’t LOSE YOUR MIND)… Here are all the wonderful ideas you submitted: 1.Buy games and […]
Photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com (by the way this is her SCARY Halloween dance!) 3 p.m. is dance around the house like crazy ladies time. It is my favorite part of the day. It helps us to remember no matter what the day has been like that we still have a lot of fun […]

Some days we don’t mind, but others make us run for cover. This past Sunday was such a wonderfully relaxing day, and I […]
The end of summer is coming. You know it’s true. So what are you going to do with your last days? We went to the beach (yes the beach, Tyler). Every time anyone said it was the ocean, or the beach, or that it was sand, he had to hurry and correct us. No, in fact, it […]
We have never had family photos done. There is a reason. And the photographer realized what it was 2 minutes after meeting us. I cannot control my children. Yes, they are 1 1/2 and 3, but still- who is their mother?! I have no idea. I know I only have two, and I can’t do it. Mothers […]
My baby sister’s name is Laura Lou; my mother called her that when she was little and it stuck with me. She has been gone on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for a few months and has quite a few months left. I felt very guilty when she left. […]
