T’was the night before Thanksgiving, when all through the house not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse (which is good ‘cuz mamma is terrified of mice); The turkey was thawed in the new Frigidaire in hopes of tomorrow when friends would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while…
I thought you might like to know what our Texas sized Thanksgiving will look like. I will post after pictures, but for now….here’s a written plan. My parents will arrive the night before. I am planning to have most of the prep work done before they get here so Mom doesn’t have to work too…
One word. Unabomber. “Mommy! Really.” I know, I know. But it IS what passes through my mind every time he pulls the hood up. Bye.

If you want to have a big adventure, here’s what you do…. 1. Put 8 women in your 15 passenger van and drive them to San Antonio to eat on the Riverwalk for one of their birthdays. (You can use your GPS to find your way). I don’t recommend The Republic of Texas restaurant 2….
As you probably have figured out by now….I’m a little OCD. It’s sad I know. I know what you’re thinking….just make it stop. Come on, admit it. You think I should be able to drown out and ignore the noises and messes and tapping-tapping-tapping-TAPPING….oh. Sorry. There I go again. The quirks (yes, I call them…
Oops! I’m sorry I’m so late in telling you who won my ClickinMoms giveaway. I did draw early this morning, but then I got to cleaning out the storage building, which I thought wouldn’t be that big of a deal. But most of the kids were helping and when I looked out there was our…
