funny...but true uh?

The secret to staying consistent with your goals is to stay motivated.

Surround yourself with visual, verbal, and physical pep talks. It doesn't take long for dust to gather on your momentum, making your goals turn stale. A daily dose of motivation kicks off the dust before it can settle and gives you a fresh clean start.

I needed to run across this today as I am trying to make some order in the kids room, preparing for a make over...

There is just one too many toys and clothes or else just too small of a space??

I will go with the last thought...hahaha

Instruction Book

511 suggestions, observations, and reminders on how to live a happy and rewarding life.


I have a dear friend who lives in Canada. The beginging of the year I was able to fly up and spend 5 blissful days with her. She had this awesome little welcome/gift bag in my room and this little book was a part of it...It is the kind of book you would take home and sit on your coffee table, I decided that day I would change that, I will read a page per day until I have read it through. I and my husband included have been so humored by this little book. I am making it a point to be able to do at least one of the suggestions on a page...So if you want to join me, check the list on the side of my blog

Dandilion Day

Yesterday we went out to pick a basket of dandiloions.I LOVE THIS WEED! mostly because it is YELLOW...haha The place that we are house sitting has a huge yard with dandilions galour.





This was the only dead one we found.Things are ALIVE around here!



Of course we had to display the lovely flowers.I have never had SO MANY dandilions in my house.


For some reason my kids love to snap pics of me,and when one starts they all need a turn...this is by far one of the better ones! I never know if it will be my stomach or head in the center of the picture ..haha



Valorie and Sarah I love you girls so much,





Just look at the clusters of YELLOW....love it!


Keep the dandilion your child gives...buy a special vase...and if your like me when your outside just tuk it in your hair or better yet put it in the neck of your shirt,you just might find it later that day hangin in your bra...hahaha
