Summer break is officially here. My son finished his last day of school last Friday. Since then we have been busy. We have gone to the neighborhood pool a couple of times, spent the weekend with friends, and his baseball season is in full swing. Watching 2nd graders pitch in baseball, is pretty darn entertaining! …

Summer has arrived here in Colorado. We went straight from winter (snow on May 1st) to summer. This week has been in the mid 80’s. Who needs spring, anyway! This last weekend we spent 3 hours pulling weeds, tilling soil, and planting our garden. We went a little crazy this year! We have 2 kinds…

Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. Because we just went to San Francisco, we didn’t really do much to celebrate. He did request Guacamole for a snack, and Pokey Sticks for dinner. (both very early posts, don’t mind the pictures) Before I get to what caught my eye this week, I thought I would share a…

How are those resolutions coming? I am doing my best to give you healthy recipes all this month. But I have to tell you, this girl wants to bake!! My husband is thankful I haven’t been baking. We are trying to drop a couple pounds before our big trip to Japan in March.

This is a very strange week around my house. Originally we were planning to leave on Saturday to drive back to Wisconsin for Thanksgiving. But it worked out that when my parents left on Tuesday, they look my 7 year old with them. So he flew back to Wisconsin with them, and my husband and…

I can not believe we are only 2 weeks away from Thanksgiving! Are you ready? We are going to be at our parents house, so I don’t have to worry about a menu. I will be in there helping for sure, but I am not in charge. I have sent along my suggestions though 🙂…

So did you have a good Halloween? My son sure did. Here is a picture of him all ready for Trick or Treating as Harry Potter. So after the let down of the sugar high, it is time to get on with real life again. I am ready for the weekend though! Saturday is the…

I took the week off from Thursday Things last week, because of Breast Cancer Awareness. In case you missed it, lots of bloggers bought all things pink and healthy to share everyday to help spread the word. We ended with a great giveaway on Friday (check it out). This week we are back. Question for…

I am thinking of starting a new series on Thursdays. It might be a review of what I have been up to recently. It might be stuff I have pinned on Pinterest lately. It might just be me rambling about what is going on. Kind of up in the air, and what I am in…
