Bing “Our School Needs” Contest
I think we can all agree that education is important no matter how cash strapped our local, state, and federal governments become. For some reason education appears to be one of the first places that budget cuts occur during the hard times. As parents, we’re often hit just as hard in the budget, but we’re… read more »
Win Kitchen Aid Appliances
Take a picture of your kitchen submit to Kitchen Aid, and get everyone you know to vote in hopes you win. I’d enter, but the appliances in my kitchen aren’t mine (ah, Army life). I’d love to have my own appliances to take when we move, but all we have is a chest freezer we… read more »

The Perfect Machine
I’ve decided that a Keurig coffeemaker is the perfect machine for our house. My husband likes a good cup of coffee, but also enjoys tea. I on the other hand prefer tea and hot chocolate as do the kids. A Keurig machine would afford us the ability to have it all. That would be so… read more »
What a Weekend!
I hit what I call the Mommy Wall today. I put Aaron down for his nap, and I was putting dirty laundry down to the basement to be washed, trying to get dressed, and making sure everything was ready so we could go get furniture when DH got home. As I’m walking through the living… read more »
