Wesley's 6th Birthday Party.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you!

I hope you had a magical Christmas and an exciting (and safe) New Year!

I am very much a goal orientated person so I always make New Year resolutions. In the past they have always been to lose weight or get more organized - the usual things. Because I still have not achieved those they are still on the list, however this year I have one I am excited about.

My 2010 New Year resolution is to become an excellent cook!

I have always been an open the box and stir it together kind of cook. LAZY, I know! Truth is I don't know how to cook! And I am too intimated to just jump in and try new recipes.

ENOUGH of that! Time to experient! I might keep a couple box meals on hand just incase as I get started. I do have to feed my family after all. :)

So, I am hoping you will help me on my cooking adventure. I have created a recipe share site on Facebook. Will you please join my group and post your recipes, tips and tricks there? Here is the link to the group page:

Recipe Share Group on Facebook

I hope you too will learn a few things from this group. Thanks for joining and Happy Cooking!

This quote touched me this morning. Thought I would share it with you!

Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go, only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be. - Karen Ravn

Hope you are having a Fabulous day! Stay Warm!!

Did ya miss me?

Hello all! Wow it has been a long time since my last post.

Time to get back at it!

We have had a few ups and downs over the last few months.

I think we are getting it all worked out now.

So time to get back at my posts. Did ya miss me? I'm BACK!

I am getting really excited for the holidays. I just ♥ to decorate.

I know it is a bit early with Thanksgiving still 2 weeks away,
but today I took all the Christmas decorations out of storage and set up the outside lights. Don't give me any crap {Jen} - it was nice outside today! We don't know how long that will last!!  :~)

Speaking of being nice out today, Wes and I played in the sandbox this afternoon. We are in Minnesota, right? What a beautiful day! No one tell mother nature it is November, I am liking this weather!

Short and Sweet today, lots to do! Hope you are enjoying the beautiful day!

Kindergarten!

My little boy is now in kindergarten! How does that happen so fast? It has been an emotional couple of days for this mama!


First day of school, Wes is SO EXCITED, he very easily gets up and gets ready. As I am driving him to school he remembers his bus number, he remembers where his locker and class room are. He is so excited he can barely stay in his seat!

Hold it together a little while longer I tell myself, don't let him see you cry.

I ask him if he wants me to walk him to his locker, no he says he will walk in himself. So I drop him off and off he goes without looking back.


And I fall apart! A mess for the rest of the morning!

Then the bus...oh godness it is 3:00 and he is getting on the bus. I worry again...will he get on the right bus and will he get off at the right spot? Then I find out my niece gets on the wrong bus - OMG I am really nervous now!!

Needless to say he makes it home safely and had a really good first day. He was fast alseep on the couch by 8:00, he must have had a busy day!

Day 2 he wakes up...Mom did I miss the bus?? No Wes I am going to drive you to school today. That's OK mom, I want to ride the bus. So off he goes to ride the bus to school hopping to the bus stop, he is so excited he is dancing as he waits for the bus.



I think we are going to make it thru kindergarten!

Your life is right now! It's not later! It's not in the time of retirement. It's not when the lover gets here. It's not when you've moved into the new house. It's not when you get the better job. Your life is right now. It will always be right now. You might as well decide to start enjoying your life right now, because it's not ever going to get better than right now -- until it gets better right now!

Well then...I am pretty successfull! :)
