Lisa’s Favorite Things Giveaway!
There are so many little things that I use and love that I decided to share them with you. I know how much I like to get tips from my friends on a great product, so I thought I’d let you in on some of my favorites:
Getting Ready for Blissdom
Yes, I am leaving. By myself. With no children to ask me a million questions and a have desperate need for a Sprite. No husband to say things like, “No, we are not stopping at that yard sale.”
Do Your Children Say Please and Thank You?
Politeness makes the home sweeter.
“Please pass the biscuits.” “Thank you for helping me.” “Excuse me.”
Perfecting My Shopping Skills
Once the wedding was over there was more excitement. The very next day, Sunday, was Hope’s 17th birthday. Instead of a gift, she wanted to go shopping. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
The Anderson Wedding
The girls and I did all of the flowers for our friends’ wedding last week. That would have been hard enough, but then I decided to get sick in the middle of it all.
Mother of the Year
I don’t know about you all, but I am so glad to be getting back to normal around here. The holidays really cut into my diet and school….doesn’t happen.
I made the announcement yesterday, “Everyone is expected to be up by 7:am tomorrow and ready for school by 9 with chores finished.
Ringing in the New Year with Darth Vadar
Last night’s party was so much fun! We opened up our home, but the other ladies did all of the planning. What a relief, since I spent the entire day making cookies with my girls. What I skipped over during the Christmas holidays I made up for yesterday.
My New Year’s Wish
It was 4:00 in the morning and I was sound asleep. In my dream someone was calling, “Mommy! Mommy!”
Then that groggy feeling, maybe-it’s-not-a-dream, try to wake up….is someone calling me?
Top Ten Projects of 2010
Rhonda over at Southern Hospitality is hosting this party and I thought it would be fun to participate. If I’m feeling like a frump because I’ve slept for the past three days….looking back at what I’ve done around here in the past year should snap me out of it.
Christmas: Phase Three
Christmas at our house progresses in three phases.
One: Preparation….months of preparation. Shopping for that perfect little thing that will light up the eyes of each child, decking the halls and celebrating with friends.
