What We Do For Our Kids.. Trying to Be a Brave Mama..

I had to get a Tb test today.  Might not sound like too much to many of you, but you have to understand, when I had my last one I had a panic attack afterward. Shots and needles are one of my worst fears.  I recently discovered that when I get a shot or blood drawn (or a tb test) that my blood pressure plummets.  This is a problem because it makes the blood draws even worse- no blood will {Read More}

This is a Sponsored post written by me. All opinions are my own. OH MY GOODNESS! I want this so bad. My kitchen is OK.  We did a home enlargement a few years ago and in the process we pushed the kitchen out so it was a bit larger.  We added a “diy” peninsula with stock cabinets.  It was budget friendly and got us what we needed, but believe me, I do not have any sort of custom, gourmet kitchen. {Read More}

My husband is not the saver in this family.. we have been together a long time (since high school) so he has improved but he still likes to spend money a lot 🙂 It’s ok with me.. because it’s a balance.  If it were just me I would probably hoard it all and we would never do anything..lol.  I am pretty sure God knew what He was doing went he put us together. Yesterday he took our oldest daughter out {Read More}
