My husband keeps my feet warm.
I have said before that my marriage is based on love, trust, respect… and the laughter that can come with totally screwing with the other person. Sometimes it is a big thing. Sometimes it’s the little things. Once when Handsome Hubby and I were out to dinner (at a very nice restaurant) we ordered a […]
American Idol? You bug me.
Dear American Idol,I think you got a few things wrong in picking your Top 24. Why did you send yodeling, warbling, named after a soap opera character Haley Vaughn through, but cut sweet Tori Kelley? I went to high school with Tori’s parents, and I was really rooting for her. They say this cut happened […]
Always carry a corkscrew, and the wine will provide itself.
I love can’t live without enjoy a glass (or two) of wine each night. What I really love? Sharing a bottle of wine with Handsome Hubby. Whenever we do this, I consider it a special occasion. Therefore, each time we open a bottle together (and finish it together) I save the cork. I keep them […]
I beg your pardon?! Marriage = WHAT….?!
Handsome Hubby and I attended a beautiful wedding this weekend. We didn’t know anyone but the bride and groom, so we kind of pretended it was a date night just for us. It was really nice. We even started out the evening with our traditional (although I can’t remember the last time we did it) […]
It’s Planely obvious…
(As you read this, please remember that one of our boys is named Mitchell….) Grant and Handsome Hubby were playing with some toy planes. Many of them are replicas of WWII war planes. As they were playing with them, HH was telling Grant the names of the planes (i.e. “This is an A-10 Warthog” or […]
Handsome Hubby drew the short straw this morning.
Conner will not get out of bed in the morning. He has AC-DC’s Back In Black album in his CD alarm clock… Blaring. Nope. He’ll lay there, bleary eyed and listening, but he won’t get out of bed. He’s gotten up to “make his bed” (can you see my “air quotes” here?) but all he […]

Why are men so stubborn? Friend Makin’ Mondays.
I love, love, love, the question Kasey posed for us all at Friend Makin’ Mondays:. “How did you and your significant other meet? If you don’t have a significant other at the moment, then what would be your dream way to meet him (or her)?”I got the Lemonade Stand Gratitude award several weeks ago, and […]
My favorite Mother’s Day gift. Ever.
June 2007 – my favorite photo. It’s the wallpaper on my computer… The best Mother’s Day gift I ever received was in 2003. It is a typed transcript of the conversation where my husband and our three oldest boys tried to decide what to get me. Devin was 10, Conner was 6 and Mitch was […]
